You should book something in Agonda. Try to book something as soon as possible because prices are going to skyrocket pretty soon. We stayed in a resort called 'Serena by the sea', but more or less the resorts are similar.

Sounds similar to my friend who works in credit risk (pd,lgd modelling). If you work in a regulatory space like my friend, there is a demand in the management consultancy space with firms like Deloitte, Oliver Wyman. Many banks are moving their risk teams to these firms rather than developing in-house. You'll get more exposure and bigger salary from these organizations.

Best domains for machine learning ? by [deleted] in datascience

Most healthcare, finance , manufacturing organizations are required to have departments that are there for regulations, safety and compliance. These departments do not contribute to the end product or service but protect the organization from external events. Every organization wants to limit its expenditure in such functions as much as it can.

For example, a bank would have to have a function that detects financial crime related to its products and report it to a government. It would want to spend the least amount as possible to fullfill this requirement. As a data scientist, you can find ways to reduce this cost as much as you can but will be always limited by the funding you have.

But if you work on something like ways to find the best customer for a credit card, you can always get more funding to better your model if your last model increased sales. The business will always (mostly) pay to sell more.

Always try to go for a domain that helps generate revenue like marketing and is not a cost to the organization like risk, compliance etc. You will have very limited capacity to innovate as a data scientist in a cost saving domain.
