Starting to see a lot of these frameworks pop up to simplify deployment of machine learning models. I’m really hoping one or two start to stand out...but it doesn’t feel like this one.
coverman commented on American Employers Are Hung Up on Hiring PhDs   bloomberg.com/opinion/art... · Posted by u/pseudolus

As a data scientist with a BS and MBA, I can attest to having experienced disqualification for jobs specifically because of my lack of a PhD. What's troubling is employers think they need PhDs. It often doesn't matter if I have 10 years experience applying data science in industry, without that PhD companies think I'm unqualified.

From my perspective, the best data scientists strike a balance between technical and business knowledge. And it's the business knowledge that PhDs coming straight from academia often lack.
