Need Help!! I got interviewed by one of the startups. HR said you performed really well please state your expected CTC. I stated a little higher and she said she will check with the management and get back with the best offer they can give max by Wednesday. But I have received no updates. It's been 3 days. Does HR tells you if they reject you during salary negotiations or delay is the norm??

I'm leaving the company so how can I can help to make sure he gets some of my allocated salary budget?

I joined a bank as a business analyst 2 months back. I’m feeling that it’s more of a stagnant task for me though learning is there still i was much more happy with development. Now idk what to do because it’s 2 months, most companies i cannot apply before 6 months or a year maybe!

What shall i do? How to cope up with it? It’s difficult. YoE- 2 yrs and 4 months.

Tech stack : Python, SQL, Azure, ML and analytics.

Hi fishes,
I am working as a data scientist since last 1.5 yrs and in total i have 5 years of experience…

Hi fishes,

What type of questions can be expected in a managerial round for a data scientist role.

Hi fishes. I am a Data scientist having TC as 19 LPA (all fixed), YoE is 1.8 years. I have a bachelor's and master's in non CS/IT.
I want to make a switch for a higher salary, what compensation should I be expecting?

I'll be glad if anyone of you can provide referral.🙏

Hi Fishes, need your opinion on which course to take up to further my chances at landing a DS role :
1. MIT micromasters in DS
2. Upgrad MSc in DS (with John Moore University and IIIT blr)
3. Any other option you recommend


The upgrad one is pricey yes, but I see folks who have done it and got a DS role.

Please advise.

Hi Fishes, I took up a course on data science with python from a local institute. But that was not effective. I would like to take up one more course from a good platform. Checked out simplilearn, learnbay and scaler. Thought of joining simplilearn. But I am wondering whether online reviews are paid ones. Because I read such a review for learnbay platform. Please guide if anyone had taken course from simplilearn.

Thankyou so much for the help and guidance!
