How to land in a job as a senior data scientist?
I have been preparing to land a job as a senior data scientist for the past 6 months, did some online courses and know the basics of DS workflow. My job currently involves SQL(easy Leetcode), Python(to some extent not everyday -- Little bit more than "Hello World!"), I am confused on where to start and how to go about it.
So, I am planning to breakdown my preparation into three buckets
SQL (StrataScratch or Leetcode)
Statistics and probability (once a week Kaggle)
Python (StrataScratch or some course in Coursera that teaches me Data structures & Algo)
But then I already started learning TensorFlow from coursera.... so should i stop that and go with the preparation above or do both? ( I have a poll on this)
My Target timeline is to start working in the job within 6 months from now.
Note: If you are looking to join me for preparation ping me.

I think your other problem might be that you’re targeting Senior DS roles. Lots of companies only hire people into Senior DS roles if they’ve been a DS before
