I'm an ops project manager in a big tech company - would it be a tall ask to pivot to data science? Have 2yo experience, and a fairly strong econ/stats background from uni - thinking of using dataquest to refresh my python (reasonably competent in R/SQL). Are there any logical transitions from project management to data science? Cheers!

Hello recruiters, happy Monday!

I want to know why recruiters ask me in an interview if I am looking at other opportunities, or if I am interviewing at other companies. If I say yes they will ask at what stage I am.

I just want to know the reason behind it and if there is a right answer to this question!
