When 'Data' is the name..... I 'm in the Game!! Is Data Scientist the “sexiest job” of the 21st century as the Harvard Business Review suggested?? A data scientist can be much more than that!! This type of professional, looks for patterns and trends in large sets of data, using a variety of tools, techniques and critical thinking to arrive at practical solutions to real-life data-centric problems. Data science is awesome, and if you want to be a part of it you have to work hard and consistently. There's a lot of stuff to learn, I'm learning every day and I think I'll never stop learning.
