Recently, I chatted with Prisha, a master’s student who is navigating the job market in data science & analytics.

We talked about technical skills, networking, long-term career planning, and why it’s important to stay adaptable as the field evolves.

Some of the key takeaways from the conversation:

Breadth beats niche early on

Projects should tell a business story

Standing out requires more than academics

Referrals matter, but only if you’re a strong candidate

LinkedIn content should attract decision-makers

Networking is a long game

Stay adaptable as the industry shifts
