From Academic to Data Science

PhD in CIS wants to switch to data science. Applied data science research in academic paper. What’s the best approach to make this transition? Any suggestions are appreciated

Network with people in DS roles. Study up on how tech interviews and roles work. Be humble and accept a relatively entry level position. Don’t think you’re above MS level folks with experience. Don’t think you’re above querying but try to find a job that isn’t all querying. Good luck!

Technically you don’t need an MS ^

Do employers care about your paper where u apply DS? I’m in the same boat waiting to push out that manuscript

Why not research scientist instead? Do you know what DS work is actually like in industry?
