I started as a research analyst at IHS MARKIT about 15 months ago. I want to shift my domain to ML engineer. I have two questions :-

1) Where and what to study?
2) Which companies to target for future prospects?

I am not machine learning engineer, so can't say much about the resources or roadmap but I want to say that when studying ML, don't get much lost in studying a lot of concepts. Rather learn some basics and then start applying it. Think of some project and learn just the required things and work on the project.

I am suggesting this way because I experienced similar situation iny BTech. That time ML had just started booming, people were not much aware of it. Neither there were many resources. I asked one friend who went to do Phd in machine learning domain. He told me all the topics to study like Algebra, calculus, statistics, EDA etc etc etc. I studied all required mathematics topics for about 2 months from Stanford and MIT lectures as suggested by that friend. Then saw University lectures of Andrew NG and so on. This way I studied around 4 months and didn't actually implemented any ML algorithm. Thus I would suggest you don't do this way.


Target for companies like Deepmind, OpenAi etc which are more focused on ML reasearch rather than just using some algorithm to predict something.

I have never gone to the gym or really worked out, and want to make a change in my life to start exercising. I'm not sure how to handle post-workout showering though.

First time growing out hair and it's coarse/wavy/dry so it takes days for oils to distribute (so oily scalp) due to pushing off washing -- when I do wash, I shampoo only the scalp and will conditioner the rest of my hair. I'm afraid of overwashing, but if I don't wash my hair after I sweat, it will frizz and poof up. Any advice?

Recently, we are seeing 2Cr+ packages being offered to IITs fresh graduates.

What are the special skills IITians possess that they are par from even 10-15Yoe in other companies while being freshers only?

What work will they do at such companies that they are being offered this much?

What non-IITians with experience should do to get similar salaries?

While I'm aware that ~$100K is average to good salary for fresh graduates in US but some companies offering similar in India!
