I can’t understand, why in the big tech: data scientist = software engineer?!!!!! It is not… and it is huge disappointment when you ask for data scientist who can improve your results that you are not satisfied with, but you design all your technical interview around SE

I’ve found that many companies don’t really understand what data science is, so the data scientist ends up doing a lot more data engineering than not

The last thing data scientists want to do is the data engineering part of their job. To ask them to become a data engineer full time is to tell them to find another job.

Does the boss even have those skill sets to be making triple the comp… as a data analyst if you put me in an SE environment don’t expect anything to be done with my skill set

Leadership ignorance. In Iraq, it was common practice for the battalion's scout sniper platoon to be divided up amongst the line infantry companies. Often, the line company commander would have the snipers assigned to any given patrol walk point.

Not the best use of them.

It comes back to not knowing how to use the tools you've been given as a manager.

I think data science as a field is growing in importance and respect. This is certainly not the way my company views things...

I appreciate the advice on this: I was a business owner before coming to the USA to finish my PhD. Now, I am a postdoc, with great results-driven research experience in the mathematical foundation of data science. However, I don’t really I belong to academia. But it seems that all data science in industry even in big tech, understand data science as a software engineering. Which is horrible. I am very good in programming but I am not software engineer yet. What can I do to open the door in industry? Or to make a productive, results and patents driven path in academia? Does it worth?!

Also I find ml folks get more of a pass on having deep sw eng skills

I have a somewhat unsteady, gappy work history due to several health issues — serious ones — that have gotten in the way since I passed the bar.

I am better finally, and ready to get back to work, but I don’t know how to explain this or even approach this during interviews/resume writing.

Anyone have any helpful advice?

So I had been working as medical interpreter up to the early part of this year. Today, during an interview, the Director with whom I was interviewing genuinely urged me to consider pursuing a career as a PA or even attempt to go to medical school. I had considered it in passing before but today was about the third or fourth time that someone had earnestly nudged me in that direction. Has anyone here made such a career pivot before? I love working in healthcare, there’s nothing like it.
