Fundamentals of experimentation I learned from working with the best in the tech industry
—
Are you a data scientist dreaming of landing a job in Big Tech but you’re not sure what skills you need to get there?
Well, I’ve got a secret weapon that could be just what you need to land your dream job in top tech companies.
A few months ago, I wrote this article about all the essential skills you need to get hired by the best tech firms, and today, we’re going to focus on one of those crucial skills: Experimentation.
Experimentation is a statistical approach that helps us isolate and evaluate the impact of product changes — launching features, UX updates, and all!
But why is experimentation so important for standing out among other data scientists?
It’s simple. The biggest tech companies are all about creating great products, and experimentation is a vital tool in achieving that.
If you can become an expert in experimentation, you’ll have a significant advantage over other candidates because most job seekers overlook this skill and don’t know how to develop it.
