I have a master’s degree in Information Management and 1 YOE and wanna enter Data Scientist field in IT companies. What i have is analytics knowledge but i have zero experience in coding. I am not sure where to start and how much it is going to take to be good enough in coding for Data Scientist. I have googled what you need to have to be a Data Scientist, but many websites or youtube show different information. What are the needs for being Data Scientist...?
Learn python + numpy + pandas. Learn R if you have time / interest I don’t have tips for getting jobs but you must know python (or R).
Take one of the python for data science moocs.
A python data science MOOC and at the same time read as much python fundamentals from free online sources starting with the python language tutorial that python has on its site. Data structures and Algos are important even as a data scientist. In your free time read as many medium python/data science articles as possible.
Statistics and coding.
