One of the biggest pieces of feedback that I receive is that I need to uplevel my synthesis and make my communication more concise when speaking around analysis. I tend to get nervous when speaking in impromptu situations and feel like I blurt out words. How as a technical person have you improved upon this and what can I do to get better?

Genuine question - is that the same phrasing they used when you received it?

If this is your normal voice, would focus on making it more direct and concise.

Good starting point would be to reread your paragraph and think about how you could've said the same thing in way less words.

Hi! Does anyone know what kind of knowledge is needed to crack the Data Scientist interview at Google?

I'm currently working in Marketing Analytics (primarily using SQL and a bit of pyspark). Apart from mastering SQL, I wanted to know from people working at Google what does it take to get there as a Data Scientist? (I'm very interested in Strategy Ops)

I plan to another 6-8 months in preparation and upskilling myself before I even apply.
Any help and guidance is appreciated! Thanks :)
