Is getting a cert every month or even every 2 months doable? In the analytics field and had goals to get a couple of specific certs this year (one is scheduled, and another I have to take within 2 months, and there were 2 others I had planned to get before end of this year) but want to make sure I’m not setting myself up to fail by doing them too quickly

Yes. My SO has a data science focus, and had been earning 2-4 a month since this time last year.

12 over 9 months. Python, topics related to Python, advanced math, and a bunch of other courses.

Just to clarify - meant more like the official tech-related certs with those 2-hr exams from AWS, Microsoft, and other official vendors

It's doable, but Im a good test taker.

I went to a T14 law school, got great grades and glowing recommendations, and wrote (what I thought was) a great writing sample. But I got rejected from all 70 federal clerkships I applied to. The only thing I can think of is: I took a non traditional route after law school and did a 2 year public interest fellowship in a niche field of administrative law. The rejection gave me a lot of self hatred. I still really want to clerk. Any advice? What is wrong with me? I feel like a failure.

Hi fishes,
I am currently working as a Data Science Analyst in Amex and would like to make a switch to Fraud detection/Credit risk modelling in future.(not in a hurry but would like to start preparing for the same)
How should I go about preparing for it? Is MBA the only course?
My current tech stack is Python, Pyspark, Hive, SQL, ML, DL(specifically NLP based). I have already done MS in CS from IIT Kgp.
I am confused mainly cause the tech stack requirement is similar to my role in the company.
