A day in the life of a data scientist: Impacting people's lives through the power of AI

Time and again, data science has been touted as the hottest career option in the 21st century. But, do you know what goes on in the life of a data scientist? To understand this, Analytics India Magazine got in touch with Sadaf Sayyad, data scientist at Intuit, who walked us through a typical day at her work, alongside sharing interesting instances, career growth, and the impact she is adding to the team and the ecosystem. "For a data scientist, a typical day depends on the phase of the project one is working on. But, on a high level, my day starts with checking emails and messages for any urgent tasks. Then, we have a stand-up meeting to discuss the progress of the project and blockers followed by planning my day," said Sayyad.
