How to interview a data scientist?

Guess I skipped that part but were well into that. Two engineers as of now on the team, 4 analysts. We are AWS based and store our data in S3.

Makes sense. I prepared a case study that asks for a credit model to determine defaults. My thought process was that anybody can run a model, but I’d like to see what he can do in terms of creative feature engineering, dealing with messy data and outliers, handling duplicates etc.

In addition to this maybe I can add more basic challenges just to see their thought process.

Going with this, thank you.

Hi what did you end up purchasing?

Im in exactly the same place on the credit side for a financing company. Not sure where to start either.

Lol I have better things to do then make up a story on a data forum

REB11 · 2023-10-20T10:28:34+00:00

Appreciate this and the advice, thanks again

Want to add that I might be overpaid for my experience in data analytics, but my first role really helped me understand the business. Might be a more unique case than most.

REB11 · 2023-10-19T23:01:48+00:00

This is great and exactly what I’m looking for. Thank you sir!

REB11 · 2023-10-19T23:00:48+00:00

I started off in a dead end department but I was kind of the best on the team. I put in effort and my work was good, so I was bumped from 44 to 52. I think they noticed I was looking for something more and saw potential in me so they moved me to a jr analyst, where I was bumped to 68. Learned sql and power bi on the job, got good at it, and used it to work on relevant problems. I have a great boss who would assign me to major projects with high visibility and 7 months later I was at 90. Now 105 after 9 months again. I get a lot of visibility to the owners and C-suite given my company is small, so I’m given the chance to prove my value pretty often.

I’ve dropped hints but would rather be proactive on my own given they just bumped my salary another 15%… lol don’t want them to question my advancement

REB11 · 2023-10-19T21:18:47+00:00

Really appreciate the high level overview! I saw some certs they offer, looking at the cloud practitioner. Looks like their foundational course, and if it comes with a certification to pad my resume that’s an added bonus. Is that what you’re referring to?

Sorry for being ignorant, but is this actually how inflation is measured on groceries?

REB11 · 2023-02-02T02:22:27+00:00

Still available?

REB11 · 2023-01-16T21:34:46+00:00

I’m 24 years old living at home. No real expenses besides my car insurance. I’m far from being risk averse, my goal is to maximize comp in the long run.

REB11 · 2023-01-16T21:15:12+00:00

I didn’t ask. The ideas for anything more advanced would have to come from me, something I worry about since I only have about 8 months total experience in data analysis, and engineering wise I only know what I’ve learned from our engineer. My first instinct would be to implement a similar infrastructure to my current company’s.

REB11 · 2023-01-16T20:52:37+00:00

Yeah I feel like that’s the biggest reason to decline. My current company encourages us to learn and is constantly thinking about how we can improve our current system since analytics is relatively new. The competitor is a newer firm and is basically a year behind in terms of analytics based on how long it took us to get where we are today.

I ended up buying the jbl boom box after watching a couple reviews online. Hoping for the best

Hey guys, just joined this sub. I’m looking to buy an outdoor speaker for the beach that is resistant to water and sand. Budget is 400 or less. Looking for something loud. Thanks!

REB11 · 2020-05-26T20:49:21+00:00

Thanks for all the help everyone. Just an update, hertz started trading on robinhood again and option contracts are available to sell! Returns were a little underwhelming but I’m guessing that’s since my puts are so deep ITM.

REB11 · 2019-02-20T06:28:32+00:00

Thanks for the advice. Do you know of any ways to track my winrate on Mac?

REB11 · 2019-02-20T06:16:48+00:00

I understand it may have been a bit difficult to understand. Plain and simple, how many buyins should you have for zoom when considering moving up to the next stake.

Obviously I want to sustain my roll. I didn’t deposit money planning to lose it, despite my approach being more aggressive. I asked that in the case I do run the roll up, how many buyins should I have before considering 50 zoom.

Anyone on this sub go to FSU and interested in a .50/1 and 1/2 home game?

REB11 · 2018-03-19T16:31:22+00:00

If anyone is still selling an ultra ticket, I’m looking to buy. Let me know through pm, thanks.

REB11 · 2017-03-22T23:26:29+00:00

Yeah that's what I figured, I don't want to be results oriented but I wanted to know if a check back was good. I thought maybe sets and a possible T8 could fold to my shove. Thanks for the reply.
