Data Science Referral ATX/LA

Hi all,

##I’ve spent the last 4 years working in DS at American Airlines - I joined directly out of UG (Top 5-7 school Math/Econ degrees). At the time, I thought AA, though I’d be leaving $ on the table, would allow me to travel at a point in life where I didn’t have familial obligations and work in a space that blended a personal passion with my academic background. It’s been good, but with the industry battered by COVID and no chance at upward mobility, I decided to take a package and leave.

As I have started searching for new roles in DS, Apple seems to have some really interesting ones based in Culver City and ATX.
I know it’s a long shot, but I was wondering if anyone here is/knows anyone at Apple hiring for DS? I’m completely open to company - there are a lot of really cool opportunities that I’m sure I don’t know about. Location wise, I’d prefer ATX, LA, or NYC, but I’m relatively open on that front too.

If anyone is able to help with referrals or could spare a few minutes just for general advice with regard to data science, I would sincerely appreciate it!

Since I’m not at a FB, Google, and can’t refer myself, I’ve been thinking of ways to try and add value back to kind internet strangers.
One thing that I’ve seen with increasing regularity is questions on fitness and wellness, especially during COVID. That is a space I know very well and I’m happy to help out others with nutrition plans, exercise plans given different levels of equipment (at home vs full gym), general advice with regard to that space.
