Dear Garrett,
As you prepare to enter the field, take time to reflect on the technical skills required for a Data Science or Machine Learning role.
Think about how your recent coursework, internships, personal projects, or extracurricular activities demonstrate these skills. These are all valuable experiences—highlight them in your resume, portfolio, or interviews.
If there are skills you’re still developing, create a plan to upskill. This could include:- Online courses (e.g., Coursera, edX, Fast.ai)
- Hackathons
- GitHub projects
- Mentorship or peer learning groups
The key is to stay curious, keep building, and be intentional about your growth. I wish you the best in your search!
