My 𝐃𝐚𝐭𝐚 𝐒𝐜𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐫𝐞𝐞𝐫 𝐀𝐜𝐜𝐞𝐥𝐞𝐫𝐚𝐭𝐨𝐫 recently concluded after a highly intensive and engaging 4 weeks, with an outstanding 𝐂𝐨𝐮𝐫𝐬𝐞 𝐍𝐏𝐒 of 80 (averaged week-on-week)!

✌️ My cohort has already recorded several wins:
👉 7 job offers
👉 25+ job interviews scheduled
👉 25+ inbound mails from recruiters on LinkedIn
👉 +++ interviews and offers in the pipeline
😎 Most importantly, learners have gained a lot more confidence and clarity on cracking #datascience #machinelearning jobs.
