    I've been interested in data science consulting for a while now. Developing relationships in business is so important, something you can't learn in a deep learning course.

    I wanted to ask you how do you manage time? Because in this field you gotta put in hours and I'm that kind of guy who like to relax on weekends after a hard week. I mean how do you do it? I mean being on RUclips and learning new everyday and working your job? Can you please share some insights.You also reply try to reply to almost every comments which is one of the reason I love your channel . Thankyou Ken . Love Dinesh

I also talk about it some in my most recent day in the life video: ruclips.net/video/lUUqrRgerd8/видео.html . For the most part, I just try to get the most important things done first thing in the morning. I also schedule out my whole day including the break times. The videos expand a bit more though.

      This may be cliche advice, but I recommend following your interests. Sports really resonated with me, others might find more of an interest in music, agriculture, finance, etc. I just worked in a domain that I was excited about because I was more likely to complete the projects haha

    Hey, how do you calc your usual rate? I heard the rule of thumb is 1% of the annual salary per day. Also, do you think that freelancing in data science is the way to go? I'd prefer to work on a project by project basis rather than being an employee and doing the same every month.

    • @KenJee_ds
      @KenJee_ds  4 года назад

      I basically take my annual income and divide it by 2000 (hours worked per year minus vacation). If you are very extroverted and like selling, this could be a good option for you. If you're looking for more project based work, I would recommend data science consulting over one off contracts.

    Hey, you got an awesome channel with a lot of valuable videos.
    Do you think data science jobs could become non existent in the future with the possibility of it getting automated using tools and having non specialists utilize those tools

    • @KenJee_ds
      @KenJee_ds  4 года назад +1

      I don't expect them to be automated in the next 10 - 20 years. I think a good parallel would be accounting jobs. In theory, we should have been able to automate these for the last 10 years, yet accounting is still a completely viable profession. I hope this helps!

      It is more common than you think to not feel confident. There are many things that I am still learning and that I don't have a great grasp over. My recommendation is to just apply. If you treat it as a learning experience, this will be the fastest way to upskill.
