It becomes over whelming to see the job requirements for a Data Science role in India. It's hard not to fall in the trap of not knowing a lot of stuff even having a strong foundation in Python, Probability and statistics. Also I've taken a few courses from you guys till 15th of April and they were awesome.

But would you also recommend us some of the projects we can have in our portfolio which will help us stand out?

[arslanvaughan]

The introductory course that you offer in Tableau is awesome!

[meaholland]

I am always waiting to see your new videos. The premiere option is great choice to do!

[whytepencil]

Don't become a data scientist for the money. Do it for the people and your passion!

[blader]

The way you conduct lessons are awesome

I have experience in coding with java and software testing, now I wanna career change I don't know going for web design or data science?.

[pattarapolchungchareonpani]

Which laptop do you recommend to use for working as data scientist?

[taimalzammar]

I don't have a bachelor degree, Can I become a data scientist? I'm currently studying python

[mknivea]

Why is the field competitive if there is a high demand but low supply?

[alash]

If most of the data scientist hold bachelor's or master's degree, how could 365 courses help me?

[upwithafrica]

So impressing!
I need to have a DS Mentor, could you suggest one to me please?

[starship]

This was a very nice and informative video. Hopefully I can get a data scientist/analyst position with only a bachelor's degree, but I should consider graduate programs in my area. Thanks!

Not sure I agree with comparing SQL to Python and R. SQL complements either or both of those two and every Data Scientist should know the basics of SQL at the very least.

[ehteshamali]

You didnt mention hadoop, ML which is required in most of the jobs. You can't get an interview with just python and R. Also you need to know how to visualize data via BI tools.

I am trying to buy monthly subscription from last 2 weeks, I tried 2 different cards but same error occurs "card has been declined". I did contact with your customer service department but no one is helping me, this issue is not from my side. Kindly resolve this.

Python is alone to become a good data scientist ?

[alekonache]
