Let me tell you this important information that the ---- Data-Science and Data-Scientist job profile is considered as the Sexiest job for the 21st Century which has been reviewed by the researchers of the Harvard University. If you are not believing me then google it, you will be amazed after seeing the results.

So now you all may be want to among those of this sexiest and amazing thing out there in the upcoming years. The level of income for these roles are also are pretty much high in the tech market.

Let's go into some stats✍ and show you that the average salary for a fresher data-scientist is 10,00,000🤑 lakh per annum in India and outside India it levels up for $70,000🙊 that's also for new entry-level job in this awesome field.

So, What these actually do🗺

They does the amazing stuff and the fun activities by the every bit of data and information that is available to them in every possible way. Data Scientist helps organizations to come-up with their issues and problem by combining the Computer Science👨‍💻, Statistics📊, Mathematics➕, Algorithms, and apply some of the models. Data scientist work with the business stakeholders to determine their reach and how to able to attain and acquire such goals. They builds predictive models, apply suitable algorithms and gets a lot of data to provide it as inputs and then analyze those outputs and share these with the insights peers.

Some of the roles under Data-Science field includes -

  • Data-Scientist
  • Data-Analyst
  • Data-Engineer
  • Data-Architect

What to learn📘 to become a successful Data-Scientist

You have to learn and follow a series of Skills to master this profile

Statistical analysis:

Identify patterns in data. This includes having a keen sense of pattern detection and anomaly detection.

Machine learning:

Implement algorithms and statistical models to enable a computer to automatically learn from data.

Computer science:

Apply the principles of artificial intelligence, database systems, human/computer interaction, numerical analysis, and software engineering.
