    Thanks for baseline. I’m in DS Analytics IC5 pipeline. Any sense yet how these jobs actually differ? Do analysts report into Eng?

    The job reqs are basically identical. Anecdotally seems the DS title gets you maybe 10-15% more more comp.

      Range for IC5 DS analytics seems like it was $250-300k pre-COVID. I was expecting OP probably outside range because of analyst title, but useful to know that delta.

      I’m an Analyst. Not qualified for Twitter DS, they tend to me more ML and research heavy. I could maybe finagle my way in there but it’d probably take me a year plus.

      Op curious why you didn’t go for DS if you have a strong background? Pay is higher isn’t it? And title doesn’t mean much but might as well get the DS title if the interview and job are comparable

      Honestly there was no gaming the system so to speak. It was an interview that focused on tangible impact made and critical thinking. “What would you do if you had x metric in y situation?” A lot focused on your thought process. I was strong but not great at sql.
