Hi all, I am a data scientist and got an offer for analyst role in Amazon. Should I take it up because its Amazon? Will I be able to switch to data science within Amazon or outside of it later? I am interested in Data Science and love working on datasets and reading data science articles, sharing knowledge in that field etc and top of all I want to grow in this field.
Amazon would look much better on your resume than TCS. Switching within amazon is super easy as long as it’s the same role / level.
I understand the level. What do mean by role? You mean if I take analyst role...its easy to switch another analyst role but not to data Scientist?
As long as the role is similar you can move easily. It’s hard to move from L5 SDE to L5 TPM. Etc. but it’s not very hard to move from L5 SDE TO another L5 SDE role. Makes sense ??
Didn’t you think of that while applying? While interviewing?
I did give it a thought. I was interviewed for data Scientist position and was asked to come onsite. 3 days before my travel they told they hired someone else. Then after a month HR asked me if I wanna come onsite for analyst position. I was excited just to go onsite to Amazon and see its campus without any expectations. And I got the offer. It was all unexpected. Yeah maybe I am sounding dumb here but thats the whole truth
You can come in and change roles but will take time may be up to 2 years depending how you prove yourself
Take it to get out of TCS. Keep your skills sharp and on the lookout for a DS role.
