Most of the data scientist vacancies published by SL Companies are just typical Data Analyst roles, you will realize if you get a chance to attend for an interview. Real data scientist jobs are currently in LSEG, Octave, and a few other companies, but they required a data science related degree, so it is not easy to get a job for a self-learner. So, if you are coming from a different area rather than BSc in Data Science my advice is to start your journey as Data Analyst and while doing that follow an MSc in Data Science (AI).Skills for Data Analyst:<ul> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Language: Python (though python is not used in the day-to-day applications, interviewers are keen on how much know about Python), SQL-must have</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">SQL Database modeling on both on-premise and Cloud. Knowledge of cloud technology is essential.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Excel automation VBA, Google Sheets with app script</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Visualization Tool: PowerBI, Tableau (Most SL companies use Power BI due to less license cost)</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Presentation ability.</li> <li data-xf-list-type="ul">Knowledge of ML is an added advantage.</li> </ul>Build an attractive Portfolio website prior to applying for the job.An associate-level DA or DS job role with 1 year of experience can start with 150,000.</blockquote>
