what are your skills? what languages do you know? which programs do you know well? Currently studying a masters in data science but my background is business

Mainly Python and SQL, some R and Tableau. Passing the first round technical take home assessment I'd say is the hardest part since they usually want a full implementation in a timed setting (surprisingly BAH doesn't have one). In the interviews be able to talk about imbalanced classes, regularization, bayesian hyperparameter tuning, XGBoost/LightGBM vs simple models, to name a few things. If you can I would also learn about ai/ml ops like actually putting models into production which is an area I'm lacking.

damn congrats! where is this? i have double the yoe and i’m only close to 150

wow fr tho good for you! that’s a great salary esp at that yoe. i’m curious to see if the comp is higher bc of clearance too

Yes, they wouldn’t give me that offer a few years ago either similar specs, I had to go as a subcontractor.

Definitely good for BAH. They’re stingy with raises so it’s good to come in at a salary you’re happy with.

They pretty much lied about the role. Senior data scientist but no predictive modeling, purely data engineering... wouldn't even take it for more money
