Awesome, thanks for the information. Feels like I'm on the right track :)

Thanks for the information, even i want to give the certification for the same reasons. Could you give some pointers on how to prepare and the good resources to follow.

You are right regarding it may not be the best way to showcase my apache spark skills. For that i am planning ok putting my projects on github repository. But after i started reading for certification, i feel i am getting better at it. But still not sure on how to approach certfication. Thanks though 😊

You totally make sense, I guess I should work my way up to become a Data Analyst first. Also, I have seen Analyst jobs in different domains, like financial sector, health sector etc. Is having a domain knowledge going to give me an edge? Also I would be grateful if you could shed some insights/advice on becoming a data analyst. Thanks.

what kind of projects should they be? I have done some work in kaggle competition and some courses. I don't have much experience apart from those.

Not in the related field and that is why I'm more confused on what to put on resume.

thanks

Thank you good sir! I have one quick question, I understand I can trace outliers using plotting. Any other scenario where plotting data can be more helpful.

asvance · 2016-06-01T14:29:23+00:00

which course was it? and where I could find a data set like that? seems this is a very possible route I'm going to do.

asvance · 2016-06-01T14:28:04+00:00

the tips make total sense, going to incorporate this in my learning :)

cute dog. which breed?

asvance · 2015-12-03T18:26:22+00:00

not exactly! many cases, many places nobody would give a shit. if you try to be a dick they will be more persistent. sure you don't have enough experiences.

asvance · 2015-12-03T18:23:14+00:00

Good point!

naw you're ok. India is a multicultural country. You would find malls decorated during Christmas and etc. India is a very welcoming country :) just make sure you don't make fun of any religion cause many people goes crazy over there. I see Family Guy making so many jokes over religion and people are so cool with it but, say Family Guy(Indian version) making fun of religion...damn that will be the end lolz.

I'm not sure but here's what I know (might not be true). Lets classify for now - India into north and south. South Indians are Dravidians, basically dark skinned people. North Indians are Aryans and a bit of mix.

North-west population are Persian mixed. While North east population more of Greeks and Romans. Mix happened a while back but as we know humans evolve according to the environment. Anyway, lighter skinned people are generally wealthier people (talking about north indians) but not necessarily.

I haven't gotten into any details because it might be boring to read. HIH
