How to survive as a Human Data Scientist -- SheCanCode

Almost a decade ago, Harvard Business Review declared that the job of a data scientist is the sexist job of the 21st century. The word "sexist" was synonymous with "most desirable/most lucrative" and data science as a field of science gained the best possible momentum. What followed was a big influx of professionals from all different fields transitioning into data science. Data was already available across the value chains of almost all organisations from sales to operations, from finance to inventory, from HR activities to CSR initiatives and it gained the spotlight with the new tools and technologies that were getting increasingly available around the same time and were being democratised with open-source platforms like R and Python around the same time. Cut to the present, the whole landscape has changed drastically.
