There’s a manager that’s brilliant and does work in a space I am very interested in. However, working with him was not a great experience. He wouldn’t respond to emails on time or respond to my questions etc. and treat me differently than others (in my opinion - subtle behavioural observations I made). I feel guilty for not accepting to be on a new project he requested me. Now I am wondering if I I should have given this another chance.

If it’s too late, then don’t linger.

If you can still get on the project, then maybe consider it if it’s a space you are passionate about.

There’s always next time too, just don’t burn the bridge

I generally respond to emails late, not because I like it but because priorities. I seldom use blanket approach for everyone on my team - each member has a different personality and drivers so I try reciprocate.

Don’t feel guilty. Just reach out and he may be able to accommodate. We like to work with good team members and don’t hold the last time you declined against you.

Hello,
I’m a junior data scientist and in my current job I mostly code using Pyspark (no machine learning) so I would like to work on a side project that could leverage my profile and data science/ML skills. What project would you advice me to work on ? (it can be a kaggle project, or a classic task that you do at your job, or a paper that you read).
I’m overwhelmed by the many suggestions online and would prefer to get a suggestion directly from professionals.
PS : I’m not a beginner.
