Avery Smith - Data Career Coach
About this episode

This is probably my favorite Ask Avery show of all time, at least of the last few months. We had some folks show up live to ask questions. Ricardo and Quincy asked awesome questions and it was so fun to talk to them face to face. We talked about how to stand out in getting a job in data with Ricardo. And Quincy asked about my opinion on bootcamps. We then took two written questions from Robert and Adnan. They asked about a structured plan for data science as well as how to know if you like data science.

I’m going to be ending the giveaway for the podcast rate and review. Please if you have one second and are on apple podcasts, please give us a review as it really helps the show. I’ll be choosing two random people to get shout outs on my linkedin as well as the podcast.
