I made the perfect career transition through Simplilearn’s PGP in Data Science course and, as a result, got a new job with a 400% salary hike!
My Career Journey So Far
I completed my B. Tech as a civil engineer in 2019. But six months into the job, I realized I was not satisfied working in the field. I began to explore new areas of interest and came across the field of data science. It was appealing to me but also daunting since it was a completely new field. Therefore, I decided to build foundational knowledge in the field through Simplilearn’s PGP in Data Science.
After completing the course, I landed a good job and currently work as a data scientist.
The Challenge
I wanted to change my career path from working as a Civil engineer to working in the field of Data Science. Therefore, after going through Simplilearn reviews, I decided to upskill myself and opted for Postgraduate Program in Data Science in association with Purdue University from Simplilearn. This course from Simplilearn turned out to be the best decision for me as it helped me successfully transition into my dream career.
