Is it just me or is anyone else getting a lot more traction for nontech roles that have an analytics component than actual DS roles?

I am interviewing with bizops and data analytics consultant jobs (they want technical people) yet I am barely receiving any traction for pure data science positions. Can't tell if its because I labelled myself as an analytics consultant.

Also, i do not have a masters

Well that also has to do with the “data scientist” position maturing and companies realizing what data science means to them. Most of the time a company doesn’t need a team of data scientist but rather domain experts with data science skills.

This 100%. I don’t trust any most of the analysis data scientist or analyst do because they don’t have domain knowledge in the subject matter.

Probably a higher technical bar for pure DS roles, and more folks competing for them with grad degrees.

It's because of your current job title. Pure play DS mostly wants to hire engineers, DS's, and researchers. Industry breadth from consulting is valued in far second to experience in project depth. Bizops is the opposite.

Hi Fishes,

I got email from LTI "Thank you for applying to LTIMindtree and going through our complete selection process" on 27 Sept but after 1 week I follow up on offer letter she said my approval got rejected due high expectation (35% hike ). We re-negotiate at 6 Sept (30% hike). Now they will release offer letter or not ?

Starting us off with an important tip: Your resume is a marketing document, not an autobiography. It should include relevant jobs, responsibilities, and perhaps most importantly, achievements. Where you can quantify an accomplishment or just talk up a major project you led at work or in an internship, do so. The point is to make the hiring manager think, “Wow, I need to talk to this person! They seem like a good fit!”
