6 Steps to Transition to Data Science from non-CS background
In this episode we will talk all about the various steps to transition to data science from non computer science backgrounds.
One of the main difficulties people face from non-CS backgrounds is how overwhelming it can be to transition to data science field, I talk about my own journey, and share the 6 steps which can help you in your own data science career!
00:00 to 02:10: Introduction
02:11 to 06:00: My Background of moving to data science from electrical engineering
06:01 to 10:56: Steps 1 to 3 covering things like using external APIs, already processed datasets and performing full stack data science work
10:57 to 11:55: Break sponsored by Anchor
11:56: End: Steps 4 to 6 covering things like math and statistics, machine learning pipelines and data structures & algorithms
