In the third and final installment of a conversation with Michelangelo D’Agostino, VP of Data Science and Engineering at Shoprunner, about growing and mentoring data scientists on your team.

As with the other episodes in this series, the topics we cover today are also covered in the O’Reilly report linked below.
