The publication of this report corresponds with the growing need for skilled data scientists and the many opportunities available to those who master core skills. In collecting and analysing large volumes of data, data scientists serve the needs of modern industry by combining the skillsets of other more traditional roles such as scientists, statisticians, and mathematicians.
In his report, author John McGee elucidates all skills that are needed by data scientists and not only those traditionally expected of the profession. The report notes that these may be of use later in a professional’s career without necessarily being crucial to the role.
The responsibilities of a data scientist are methodically laid out in the report. These involve arranging data, analysing the data for a company, presenting data in a visually appealing manner, and creating predictive models through the data. In this way, they are instrumental in giving businesses a competitive edge over rivals.
The report contains guidance for data scientists, who must always keep learning to keep abreast with ever-changing technologies. The advice given includes learning relatively new skills such as coding, which can not only strengthen data wrangling but also give insight into the approaches employed by data analysts around the world. Readers are also encouraged to learn relational databases and SQL and to learn how to work with unstructured data.
