Shortage of data science skills decoded In the recent past, prestigious and eminent job portals like LinkedIn, Glassdoor, Dice.com, BurtchWorks,Harnham,andmany othershavebeenconsistently publishing job requirements for Data Scientists withlucrative dealsand salaries. Reason:BecauseData Sciencejobsareinhighdemandasorganizationsare realizing theimportanceofinformeddecision-making.Therehasbeena repeated increaseinthe demandfor DataScientistsinmajor companies. More specifically, accordingtoanarticle writtenby StevenMiller(GlobalLeader, Academic Programs and Outreach IBM Analytics) and Debbie Hughes (VP, HigherEducation,andWorkforceBusiness-HigherEducationForum),thesalary offeredtothedifferent job rolesofaDataScientistwereincreasedasmuchas by 50% on an average. Globally, the average salary of a Data Scientist today is estimatedtobe$110,000 per annum. Huge? Yes.Letus discuss indetailthe current market scenario of theData Science jobs. Isthere atalentshortage for the DataSciencejobs? Yes. The currentmarket scenario wherethereisatremendousamountofdata produced every single day requires a person with exceptional skills to manage suchhugeamountsofData.TheseDataScienceskillsrequireindividuals with extraordinary skills such as Data Analytics, Statistics, Mathematics, Programmingskills suchas R,Python, and manymore to drive businessesto a stable position. This increased workforcerequirement cannot bemet alone by theroutine jobs. According to another research and published article, there were a lot of job postingsforDataScientistswhichremainedunfilledbecauseofthelackof certainDataScience skills.MachineLearning is animportantcriterionbutthat's nottheonly one,onehas tohaveotherskills as welltograbthejob.
