But also, I was starstruck by this glowy, mysterious aura around data scientists &#8211; people who performed cool experiments, presented cool analyses, and got to have a MacBook for work.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">I wanted to be one of those people! So, I learned Python online, brushed up on all of the statistics I\u2019d taken in undergrad, and made a lot of command line mistakes in working with HDFS. In those early years, there was no real formalized way to learn \u201cdata science,\u201d other than to see what everyone else was doing, go to meetups, and try to read the tea leaves from HR job descriptions.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">After fumbling on my own for a very long time, I\u2019ve now been established in \u201cdata science\u201d for the past 6 years, and, to serve as the mentor that I didn\u2019t have, I\u2019ve been answering emails and having coffee meetings with people looking for advice to get into data science.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Since 2012, the data science industry has moved extremely quickly.

Big Data (remember Hadoop? and Pig?) is out. R has seen a meteoric rise in adoption.

But, based on my own participation as a resume screener, mentor to data scientists leaving boot camps, interviewer, interviewee, and from conversations with friends and colleagues in similar positions, I\u2019ve developed an intuition that the number of candidates per any given data science position, particularly at the entry level, has grown from 20 or so per slot, to 100 or more. I was talking to a friend recently who had to go through 500 resumes for a single opening.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">This is not abnormal.

Adjust your skillset for that. \n<\/code><\/pre>\n<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">These are really discouraging! But, let me elaborate on both of them, and hopefully they\u2019ll seem less bleak.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1.5rem; font-size: 1.25rem;\">Don\u2019t get into data science<\/h3>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Given that there are 50, sometimes 100, sometimes 200 people for each junior role, don\u2019t compete with those people. Don\u2019t do a degree in data science, don\u2019t do a bootcamp (as a side note, most of the bootcamps I\u2019ve seen have been ineffective and crunched way too much information in a short number of time for candidates to effectively get a feel for data science, but that\u2019s a different, separate blog post).<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Don\u2019t do what everyone else is doing, because it won\u2019t differentiate you. You\u2019re competing against a stacked, oversaturated industry and just making things harder for yourself. In that&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.pwc.com\/us\/en\/library\/data-science-and-analytics.html\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">same PWC report<\/a>&nbsp;that I referenced earlier, the number of data science positions is estimated at 50k. The number of data engineering postings is 500k. The number of data analysts is 125k.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">It\u2019s much easier to come into a data science and tech career through the \u201cback door\u201d, i.e. starting out as a junior developer, or in DevOps, project management, and, perhaps most relevant, as a data analyst, information manager, or similar, than it is to apply point-blank for the same 5 positions that everyone else is applying to. It will take longer, but at the same time as you\u2019re working towards that data science job, you\u2019re learning critical IT skills that will be important to you your entire career.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Like what, for example?<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1.5rem; font-size: 1.25rem;\">Learn the skills needed for data science today<\/h3>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Here are some problems you\u2019ll actually have to deal with in the data space:<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">1)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/veekaybee.github.io\/2018\/09\/24\/the-case-of-the-broken-lambda\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Creating Python packages<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">2) Putting&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/nolisllc.com\/assets\/presentations\/r-tensorflow-api.pdf\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">R in production<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">3) Optimizing&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/teads-engineering\/spark-performance-tuning-from-the-trenches-7cbde521cf60\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Spark jobs<\/a>&nbsp;so they run more efficiently<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">4)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/blog.dataversioncontrol.com\/how-a-data-scientist-can-improve-his-productivity-730425ba4aa0\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Version controlling data<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">5) Making&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.reddit.com\/r\/MachineLearning\/comments\/ac0v2a\/d_should_ml_workflow_be_different_from_se_workflow\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">models and data reproducible<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">6)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/caitlinhudon.com\/2018\/11\/28\/git-sql-together\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Version controlling SQL<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">7) Building and maintaining clean data&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.thoughtworks.com\/insights\/blog\/curse-data-lake-monster\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">in data lakes<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">8) Tooling for&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/research.fb.com\/prophet-forecasting-at-scale\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">time series forecasting at scale<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">9) Scaling&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/netflix-techblog\/notebook-innovation-591ee3221233\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">sharing of Jupyter notebooks<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">10) Thinking about&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/wp.sigmod.org\/?p=2288\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">systems for clean data<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">11)&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.dataquest.io\/blog\/python-json-tutorial\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Lots of JSON<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Although there are&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/arxiv.org\/list\/cs.AI\/recent\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">plenty of lovely<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/medium.com\/@Randy_Au\/data-science-in-the-trenches-living-w-small-n-256f92b82e81\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">statistical problems<\/a>&nbsp;to think about in data science, none of these links deal with them. While tuning models, visualization, and analysis make up some component of your time as a data scientist, data science is and has always been primarily about getting clean data in a single place to be used for interpolation.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">What do all these blog posts have in common? Good generalist engineering skills with a data background.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">How do you prepare to solve these problems and be ready for the workforce? Learn these three skills, which all are foundational, and build on each other, from easiest, to hardest.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">The really key thing about all of these skills is that they are also fundamental and critical to software development outside of data science, meaning that, in case you can\u2019t find a data science job, you can transition quickly to software development, or devops. I consider this flexibility just as important as training for a specific data-related gig.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1.5rem; font-size: 1.25rem;\">1.

margin-bottom: 1rem;\">First, I recommend&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/www.craigkerstiens.com\/2019\/02\/12\/sql-most-valuable-skill\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">learning SQL for everyone<\/a>, regardless of whether their ambition is to be a data engineer, ML expert, or AI superwhiz.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">SQL is not sexy, and it\u2019s not a solution to the list of problems I just listed. But for all intents and purposes, in order to understand how to access data, chances are extremely high that you\u2019ll come across a database somewhere that will require you to write some SQL queries and get an answer.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">SQL is so great and so popular that even NoSQL and key-value store solutions are reimplementing it. Just check out&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/prestodb.github.io\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Presto<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/athena\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Athena<\/a>, which is powered by Presto,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/cloud.google.com\/bigquery\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">BigQuery<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.confluent.io\/product\/ksql\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">KSQL<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/pandas.pydata.org\/pandas-docs\/version\/0.22\/generated\/pandas.read_sql.html\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Pandas<\/a>,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/spark.apache.org\/sql\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">Spark<\/a>, and many, many more. If you find yourself overwhelmed by the sheer amount of data tooling out there, chances are, there is a SQL for you. And, once you understand the SQL paradigm, chances are it\u2019ll be easier to understand&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/erikbern.com\/2018\/08\/30\/i-dont-want-to-learn-your-garbage-query-language.html\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">other query languages<\/a>, which opens up an entire new universe.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">The next step, after you learn SQL well, is to understand a bit&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/use-the-index-luke.com\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">about how databases work<\/a>&nbsp;and why so you can learn to optimize your queries. You\u2019re not going to be a database developer, but again, a lot of the concepts will carry over into your other programming life.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1.5rem; font-size: 1.25rem;\">2.Learn a programming language extremely well and learn programming concepts.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Isn\u2019t SQL a programming language? It is, but it\u2019s declarative. You specify the outputs you want (i.e. which columns from your table you want to pull), but not how those columns are actually returned to you. SQL abstracts a lot of what\u2019s going on under the covers of a database.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">You want a procedural language, one where you have to specify how and where the data is selected from. Most modern languages are procedural: Java, Python, Scala, R, Go, etc.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">There is a lot of debate about which language to choose for data science, and I won\u2019t prescribe one for any given circumstance, except to say that in my career, Python has served me extremely well. It\u2019s easy enough to get started in as a beginner, is (arguably) the most popular programming language in the data sphere right now, and can be used for a number of different things, from putting together a model in scikit learn, to accessing the AWS API, to building a web application, to cleaning data, to creating deep learning models. For statistical depth, R for sure has Python beat.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">But again, my advice is not to go for statistical depth, but general programming breadth.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">There are some tasks Python is not great for:&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/instagram-engineering.com\/dismissing-python-garbage-collection-at-instagram-4dca40b29172\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">large-scale applications<\/a>,packaging dependencies, and some specific numerical work, particularly time series and a bunch of features that come in R out of the box, similar to what&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.statsmodels.org\/stable\/index.html\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">statsmodels<\/a>&nbsp;offers, but at a much more granular level.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">If you don\u2019t pick Python, that\u2019s fine. But you should pick a language that will, again, allow you to be flexible outside of a data science environment, for example if your first job is as a data analyst, a QA analyst, a junior in DevOps, or any number of different ways that will allow you to get your foot in the door.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Once you pick your language and figure out how to use it, start to learn the paradigms behind it and how it relates to the computer science ecosystem at large.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">How do you do OOP in your language? What does OOP even mean? How do you optimize your code? How do your language\u2019s dependencies work? How do you package your code in your given language, how do you do version control, continuous integration, how do you deploy model artifacts? Where is your language\u2019s community, where are its meetups?<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Get to know your language well. Get to know its warts and its best parts. Build something fun in your language.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">And then, when you\u2019re&nbsp;<a href=\"http:\/\/norvig.com\/21-days.html\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">at a good point<\/a>&nbsp;and feel confident enough to continue, but only then, learn your second language. It will teach you so much more about the wider world of language design, algorithms, and patterns.<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1.5rem; font-size: 1.25rem;\">3.Learn how to work in the cloud.<\/h3>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Now that you know how to program, it\u2019s time to take those skills and theory to the cloud.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">The cloud is everywhere these days, and chances are you will have to work in the cloud in one of your next jobs. It\u2019s much easier to come in with a head start, particularly as more and more machine learning paradigms move to cloud vendors these days (SageMaker, Cloud AI, and Azure Machine Learning), there are off-the shelf templates to implement algorithms, and more of your company\u2019s data starts to be stored there.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Chances are you\u2019ll be working with AWS, the industry leader, but more and more places are adopting Google Cloud, and many more conservative, traditional businesses that already do business with Microsoft will have Azure. I recommend doing a survey of all three, and then picking one you\u2019re most interested in to get comfortable with. Cloud design paradigms are similar in that you have to understand how to glue services together, how to logically partition your part of the cloud away from other servers on the cloud, and&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/veekaybee.github.io\/2018\/01\/28\/working-with-aws\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">how to work with lots and lots of JSON.<\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">A cool thing is that all three vendors now offer certifications of their offerings. I\u2019m generally not a big believer in certifications as a signifier of knowledge, but what you\u2019ll learn going through the certs is how the cloud works, which is another component of engineering: networks.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Learn about the three general offerings and build something fun in the cloud before you get to your next job.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">The piece that is largely missing here, is of course, the \u201csoft skills\u201d &#8211; knowing what to build when, knowing how to communicate in the workplace, understanding what other people want. This piece is just as important as the technical, and there are lots of blog posts devoted to it, but for the sake of keeping this post under 4,000 words, I\u2019ll skip it and let you do your own reading.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 0.5rem; line-height: 1.25; color: rgb(49, 49, 49); text-rendering: optimizeLegibility; margin-top: 1rem; font-size: 1.5rem;\">Last Steps<\/h2>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Now,&nbsp;<em style=\"box-sizing: border-box;\">deep breath<\/em>&nbsp;I think you\u2019re ready.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">If all or any of that sounds interesting to you, you\u2019re ready to be a data scientist, or machine learning engineer, or cloud expert, or AI wizard in 2019.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">Remember that the ultimate goal in following this advice is to beat the hordes doing data science degrees, bootcamps, and working through tutorials.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">You want to get your foot in the door, get a data-adjacent position, and move towards whatever your dream job is, while finding out as much as you can about the tech industry in general.<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">My last piece of general advice is a small pep talk:<\/p>\n<p style=\"box-sizing: border-box; margin-bottom: 1rem;\">This stuff is really hard&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/overreacted.io\/things-i-dont-know-as-of-2018\/\" style=\"box-sizing: border-box; color: rgb(38, 139, 210);\">for everyone<\/a>, and there are a million things it seems like you have to know.

We were out at our family cabin in Bolinas, and he was at the kitchen table close to tears, surrounded by binder paper and pencils and unopened books on birds, immobilized by the hugeness of the task ahead. Then my father sat down beside him, put his arm around my brother\u2019s shoulder, and said. \u2018Bird by bird, buddy.
