Hello, I hope you are doing well

Data scientists are the analytical data experts with technical skills to solve complex problems. They work with several elements related to mathematics, statistics, computer science. They also collect, analyze and interpret large amounts of data.

If you have no prior information but you like working with the numbers and you are having familiarity with the basic concepts of Math and Statistics, you can become a Data Science professional. Here are some tips that can help you crack a data science interview and start your career in this field:

• Pursue internship with any Data Science firm
• Find courses that teach Statistics, Probability, and Linear Algebra
• Know about optimization
• Be aware of the basics of Natural Language Processing, Information Extraction, Computer Vision, Bioinformatics, Speech Processing, etc.
• Take up any online Data Science course covering the basics.

Most of the professionals at primary and intermediate levels focus on sharpening their technical skills but forget that they need to improve their management skills if they want to grow in their careers. So, you should focus on that part too.

Hope this helps
