Second this. At my company none of the data science jobs actually had that title, instead the role name was functional. For example a common title was “product insights and analytics manager”. Given the job descriptions usually didn’t contain the word data science in it. But it was definitely a data science job.

There is saturation in the market but also heterogeneity in the profiles. The more there will be people looking for jobs, the more employers will use severe criteria to select who they want. Having a masters works better than bootcamps and self taught skills. Having a portfolio works better than just having a good cv. Having some topic expertise on the data at hand (some behavioral science skills, or marketing skills...) is better than being a pure data scientist. It's not about being actually better... but about seeming more adequate to a recruter.

I've never been in a work position before, and I'm considering that the best approach in my situation is to strengthen my profile to be able to work online consistently (this would give me an advantage to live in more affordable areas in the vicinity). Indeed, as you mentioned, I believe I need to consider expanding my possibilities to achieve my priority. Do you have any suggestions for quickly finding a job that has the potential for remote work in the future? Thanks!

Are there actually jobs that make you do just one thing?

I've heard job searches are traditionally slower in the summer due to people being off on holiday. but have been getting more pings from recruiters recently.

My view is that when market demand exceeds supply like a few years back - ignore requirements. If supply exceeds demand they are getting a 1000 applications and they will filter using software anyone who does not straight up meet the requirements. You can apply, but make sure you spend 5 minutes applying and not 5 hours, and make sure you don't count it as an actual valid application in counting your rejections.

Actually all that hype worked out exactly how the corporate world who spurred it wanted for it to work out. They convinced a generation of bright young minds to all learn the same skills, so now the companies have pick of the litter. And since the supply is so abundant, they don't have to offer competitive wages. They can just toss out their current engineers and replace them with cheap young new grads at the drop of a hat. They created an environment wherein candidates have to fight for the few available positions, rather than the companies having to fight for the few available qualified candidates.

Money essentially wasted, i'd love to keep doing projects but they don't feed the family unfortunately.

The solution is simple, just let the bubble pop. Companies are seeking for thousands of seniors DS/Engineers/… and of course the current job market cannot supply that amount of professionals right now. And without giving opportunities to new comers, it will never be. Companies are right now in the Egg and Chicken dilemma. Once companies realize crazy salaries doesn’t justify anymore super seniors professionals, then they will give another change to juniors

The tech gold rush is over. Anybody telling you otherwise is trying to sell you the shovels. Only pursue a data science role if it’s something you’re very interested in. There’s many other roles out there where you can make more money, so don’t try to gold rush this sector anymore.

I think that to make a statement you have to also analyze the demand for jobs. For example, we now know that because of the massive layoffs in tech there is a new pool of thousands of experienced and competitive data scientists competing for the jobs. I think the data at least should include the number of applicants per job overtime.

I think that cs isn't gonna be a valid option from now on. It's been the most mainstream degree for the past 10 years. That happens with every industry. The IT industry was red hot from 1995 to 2000 and then went bust in 2001, Oil drilling was on fire from 2010 to 2014 and is now in dangerous territory. Noone tells students that the real world depends on the capital flow into and out of markets

Love your video, I'm from a 3rd world country Nigeria 🇳🇬, started coding python when I was 15 but wasn't consistent because of crypto trading, tho I have a degree in CS. I learnt data analysis last year but I had to switch out very fast to become a full stack web developer (something I have experience in) I honestly wanted something that's not really technical and won't stress me ... Truth is data analysis as a career is overrated, I feel into the hype... Data analysis should be an ad-hoc skill in any field, I feel career prospects in data analysis is pretty low.. Data scientist and data engineering is wayyyy better for someone looking for stable job, stable pay and career prospects
