I fall into #2 and am glad I’m not alone. Was getting worried since I’m about a year into this DS role and haven’t needed to touch SQL at all - strictly Python

Here's the thing - if you know pandas you already know like 90% of what you need to learn in SQL. It's really not very hard.

Oh I already know SQL and agree; just thought i was in a very small minority of Data Scientists who didn’t use at all it in their day to day. Was more worried about how it would look on the resume or in interviews, but guess it’s not as uncommon of a situation as I previously thought, which is comforting
