Into The Wizarding World of Tech

A glimpse into the wizarding world of Tech & what you need to make your way in and succeed as a Data Wizard-ist

Have you been waiting ages for your Hogwarts letter to arrive? Your owl keeps getting lost in the mail, and you‘re afraid it might never come?

If you’re a Data Scientist dying to join the wizarding world of Tech, wait no more. Here’s one letter that’ll set you flying on that broomstick right to the company of your dreams.

I see a lot of people calling themselves Data Wizards today. Let’s be honest, if there’s one thing cooler than being a scientist, it’s for sure being a wizard. And in the world of data, if there is one magical place for people like us, it’s without a doubt the wizarding world of Tech.

Once you’re in, you get yourself a killer potion for success and fun.

Why?

• Tech companies are always at the forefront of the AI race
  In this realm, most Data Scientists work at the heart of the product in R&D. This means that once you’re in, you’re on the best grounds to work with cutting-edge technology and be an active player in all things AI-related.
• There is no better place than Tech to find an endless trove of quality data to wave your wand at
  The possibilities and opportunities that come with having access to abundant quality data are a priceless perk. You’ll be constantly experimenting with data and that will ensure you always keep your skills competitive.

There is one problem though. Not everybody qualifies to receive their magical acceptance letter. Without having the correct spells under your sleeve, you could be left waiting forever.

That’s where I come in. I’m here to give you the insider map you need. Think of it as the Marauder’s Map on which I’ll unveil all the hidden secret passages to get you to where you want to be!
