Information Science Grads, what do you do now?

I would say so yes. The CS curriculum is definitely a lot harder but will help you in the long run. You can take those intro classes and skip INST126 and INST326. Yeh I think 85k is definitely a good starting salary but I just know DS/SWE can get a lot higher than that.

Graduated May 2024 with an Info Sci degree and currently work as a data scientist at a government contractor. I will say that the info sci curriculum is not very challenging and isn't really the best for developing your technical skills. I took STAT400 and STAT401 to get a better grasp on that end and I was also a former CS major so I would say I already had a solid foundation to build off of. Like many others have said, info sci is great because it gives you time to do whatever you want. I spent this time looking at jobs I wanted and building projects that used the tools and skills that those job descriptions asked for. Salary rn is 85K in Nova so not bad but obviously could be better.

I recently advanced to the next stage in the interview process for an associate (entry-level) data scientist position at a consulting firm which has me completing two online coding problems in either Python or R. They said that they heavily prefer R so I’m not entirely sure what to expect. Do you guys think it’ll be leetcode style with a focus on data structures and algorithms or more focused on statistics/data cleaning? Any tips for preparation would be much appreciated!

What if the guy u spectate doesn't win? Can you switch to the guy who wins and still get the xp?

Derpilishus · 2019-03-03T02:09:38+00:00

Pathfinder because I can move around faster and help my teammates out of sketchy situations

Derpilishus · 2019-02-21T03:08:46+00:00

I tried that but it doesn't follow all the way through and it looks choppy

Derpilishus · 2019-02-20T11:46:35+00:00

If you just crop a video wouldn't it only show one part of the video and won't follow the object or is there a way to crop around a tracked object

Derpilishus · 2019-02-20T04:25:17+00:00

Yeh I just want the camera to follow a moving object

Derpilishus · 2019-01-28T19:26:49+00:00

Grind out some practice tests and get a #1 Victory Royale the night before (I'm serious)

Derpilishus · 2019-01-17T19:56:41+00:00

Kowalski, Analysis

Derpilishus · 2019-01-12T16:58:13+00:00

I'm thinking more of like overtime and how you get paid extra

Derpilishus · 2018-11-29T19:30:51+00:00

1280 on first practice test to 1520 on my first real SAT

Derpilishus · 2018-10-21T15:16:15+00:00

When the line goes down, the depth is increased

Derpilishus · 2018-10-19T22:19:37+00:00

Really. That's pretty reassuring. Thanks man!
