    A lot of comments asking about the certificate name. I took 'Database Management Certificate' at University of Washington. It's listed on my LinkedIn too. That being said, the reason I omitted the in the first place from the video because there was a lot of self-learning outside of the certificate program which helped me. Additionally, my resume did not have this certificate mentioned when I got my first job at big tech. Hopefully the additional context is helpful as I wouldn't want anyone to blindly jump into a certificate thinking it's the primary reason I got hired. Hope you are having a beautiful day!

    Thanks
    Sundas for sharing your story. You don't have to share the personal details on the gap if you don't want to. Mad respect!
    The gap wasn't a waste because that made you who you're today.
    I think most people may think it's too late to pursue date science later in life.
    They might think that they did a few jobs in their early 20s and their lives are ruined...
    Your story is a good testament that it's never too late to pursue data science!

I've already started doing certifications from outside. After completing my bachelor's, I am going to do Diploma in Big Data Analytics, so that I learn more about what I love.

Most of them were from a science background. I also made some friends who were from a Medical background. So to answer your question, MSC Biotech Graduates may have to do a similar course first and then they can be selected for a data scientist job. I would suggest doing online courses, diploma certification, etc to show your background.

    Splendid Sundas! Followed you on LI. I'm a Game Designer transitioning into Data Science and looking forward to work as a 'Game Data Scientist' for gaming companies like Ubisoft or PlayStation. Would love to connect with you and potentially get your mentorship.

    Your video is really very very inspiring. I am in my 40's do not have an IT background yet I landed in a IT job and getting paid well. Many of the videos say that you can't go too far if you do not have a master's in IT and yet you are in Google and have worked for companies like amazon. Thank you for sharing your career path.

    You are LUCKY when meeting supportive managers and good employers. In Vietnam, people focus on your age, and if you are not young (20 - 22 yrs old), they DON'T OFFER Internship for you. Another NEGATIVE side in Vietnam that they require you have 3 years of experience or over for the Role, that you will not have chance to work.

      The courses were primarily focused on data engineering. I don't remember the name atm, it's lon my LinkedIn profile though. I took it at the University of Washington.

      Don’t worry. More guys were part of my internship cohort than women. I’ve been the only woman in most of my tech team so I’m not sure what you are talking about.

      @@SundasKhalid Just to illustrate my point. There was a reputed company which came to my college for campus placement. As they were interviewing the candidates for the role(it was very difficult to get shorlisted for their interview), there was a “pretty” girl who was working as a coordinator for the interview. She was spotted by one of the guys from the panelists. He gives her the unsolicited offer for the invitation to interview. She appears for the interview and eventually gets selected.
      I am not saying the same thing about you. Just pointed to the general trend. Don’t take it the wrong way.
      I have seen your videos and I appreciate your hardwork and your journey. But I hope you get my point. Can’t turn blind eye to the kind of bias which happens around us. Clear preference for prettier women over others.

    I am a non tech person with a background in Accounting and Finance. I began taking masters part time in 2019 just about to graduate and my masters got me interested in Data Science. Your journey is inspirational as I want to transition towards Data Science. I would love to know your recommendations on how to learn Python or R. Currently at work I do not have an opportunity to use those skills. Any ideas you may have to self learn and implement these teachings. Thanks again for your insights.

    Your video gives me courage to continue studying MDS. I had my bachelors degree and started my masters degree a long time ago. Been moving to different countries until I decided to go back studying bachelors in a foreign country. I felt overwhelmed because I am learning new staff and asking myself if it will be worth it studying Data science?
