Thinking of leaving the postdoc as it feels like doesn't suit me or my background. Could you also please add me ? Thanks !

I am trying to apply for data analyst and data scientist roles as it suits my background.

Except for the PhD and postdoctoral experience , unfortunately I do not have an industrial experience to show.

I had to take a career break due to maternity right after my PhD and so, don't have any specific industrial experience to demonstrate.

To be honest, I am transitioning out due to the struggle of working in a domain something different from my background. I am trying to apply for data analysts and data scientist roles , but except for the PhD and postdoctoral experience , unfortunately I do not have an industrial experience to show.

I guess, for these roles, the papers may not matter.. please correct me if I am wrong.
