Hello Sharks!!!

It would be great if you can also share some recommendations of the resources that helped you

What counts as operational experience in a startup context? I am a data scientist interested in VC in the long run. After a year or two as Lead DS, I plan to do a stint in a startup. Would it be better to pursue roles with more of a lean towards bizops vs hands-on engineering, if the end goal is a tech-focused fund like a16z?

In your opinion, what are some of the top agencies in London doing more digital/design/innovation-centric work? Thinking of a career pivot but am not too familiar.

"I recently joined cognizant as an architect after 10+ years at tcs and was immediately put on project since one person left . There was not much in terms of KT and I feel lot of pressure now. Should I try learning things on my own and take up responsibilities or ask for release or start searching for a new job? I think searching a new job I may land in similar situation. Please advise."

Okay so I recently took an informatics position and left the bedside. It pays well, but I am bored out of my mind sitting at a desk all day. I don’t know if I’ll be able to adjust.

To those of you resistant to family cars - I’m a sports car driving, fast car loving, low to the ground kind of mom-to-be. (e.g. no back seat, no back doors). Obvi I need to get a new car but what isn’t too large, makes sense for a 3 person family (no more kids coming), while not sacrificing my need for speed and desire for a smaller/low to the ground/well handling ride? So far considering an S4 /S5, 3 or 4 series. Back doors seems to be a requirement for getting in and out of a car seat huh!🙄
