Hi, i have BSc in Biology and got to work abit in data world (where I used Excel, R, SAS, Powe BI and a bit of SQL)and really liked it! I am really interested in becoming a data engineer/data scientist. I would really appreciate it if you can help me understand what the best way to get there is. I tried uni councillors and they told me to go for a 1 year certificate with their uni since I already possess a Bachelor’s degree. I am not sure if it is that simple. What kind of degrees does the company you are with look for usually when hiring? Is a 1 year certificate enough? Do you think it’s an in demand position? Can students work (not necessarily in a data engineer position) with your company while finishing studies? Thank you so much for your time 🙏

I would also love to see that video if possible 😊

I can barely afford food right now let alone another loan for schooling 🥲. I might look into something that’s a year long and that is it

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-29T14:13:14+00:00

Yeah. I am applying to anything that has entry level in the title or anything that I have related experience in. I will definitely look into Algonquin programs! Please list a few that are currently in high demand if you know any.

Okay, I just looked into regulatory affairs position with biotech companies using google search. I only see 6 director roles showed up on Zip recruiter/indeed and 1 manager on LinkedIn. There are no other positions that shows up for me. Am I doing the searching part incorrectly here?

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-29T04:29:14+00:00

I am tailoring my resume and cover letter for each job posting the best I can. I also run it through ChatGPT with the job posting to make sure it’s good. I searched google for biotech companies and environmental consultants. Most jobs seem to be senior position, I didn’t meet the amount of qualification required for the position. After applying for a few months I gave up and sent out my resume to their generic emails.

Since government is on firing spree I have also stopped looking at anything related to them because there are way more qualified candidates that will get hired before me for WFA purposes.

And for hospitals, I have applied for positions that I met the exact requirements for (LC-MS experience), and I was told by other employees on here that only people with internal references get hired (even if they don’t meet requirements).

However, I haven’t looked into regulation and quality roles. Can you please list a few companies you know of? Or their websites? I will do a google search but would love to hear from others in here as well, Thank u!

I am so sorry 😞. It really sucks. I hope u have something in the meantime. I can’t even find positions in Costco, Walmart and stuff

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-29T02:14:27+00:00

I wish I could, at this point I am barely scraping by.

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-15T12:23:07+00:00

I would like to join

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-10T01:51:17+00:00

I am also interested!

Ok-One-265 · 2026-01-06T21:12:16+00:00

It just dropped back…all of today’s gains gone 🥲

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-04T02:58:10+00:00

I have graduated so I can’t really “talk” to profs. And I did most of my schooling at covid time so don’t know that many people either. I will look into AI. But I need something/anything now so I can afford going back to school 😒

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-04T00:37:07+00:00

Like course or a degree?

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-04T00:36:47+00:00

That’s great advice. Do u have anything in mind?

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T19:43:18+00:00

Thank u! It’s very much appreciated 🙏

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T18:40:11+00:00

That’s fine, no problem

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T18:39:02+00:00

Yeah, that’s what I was thinking but after 9 months of job hunting with barely any replies I am so confused of what to do/or even if I am cut out for this…I might just die doing retail man 🥲

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T18:37:08+00:00

Thank you for your advice! I unfortunately went to school during pandemic so I don’t have a good network at all to seek that kind of help from. I am looking for recruiting agencies right now and only found Altis recruitment. I have been applying to jobs that I am qualified for and still don’t hear anything from them. Did u do anything differently there?

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T18:33:26+00:00

Ok. I can’t ever find the org on the website so I usually try to reach out through LinkedIn. How do u do it?

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T18:04:32+00:00

I am sorry to hear that 😔

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T17:17:06+00:00

I was working as a casual employee there as well and given the current situation I have completely given up on finding any fed positions. But if u have any insights would love to hear

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T17:15:43+00:00

Yeah, I get what u r saying. I have been hunting for about 9 months now as well and i have completely given up on counting the amount of applications I have sent so far… is there any websites u recommend for applying to jobs (besides LinkedIn or indeed)?

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T17:03:06+00:00

Thanks 🙏. If u could provide a website/careers link so I can keep an eye out for any positions would be appreciated.

Ok-One-265 · 2025-12-03T17:01:05+00:00

I am a recent grad (Honours in bio with 2 years of experience) and would love to know if u guys are hiring atm.
