Niftel Resources Subject Matter ExpertData Scientist Skills

Who are data scientists? What do they do? years ago, data scientists did not exist. People within the organization perform data mining, data cleaning, and analyse data as per business needs. But today’s digital world has taken a 360-degree turn and data/information has become a vital asset for organizations.

One of the most in-demand fields in 2022 is Data scientist. Now the data scientist profession that we admire today is standing at the head of the new career path. Modern data scientists have combinational skills including technical know-how with expertise in analytics along with curiosity and problem-solving skills.

Since it is one of the desired fields in recent times, the competition rate is a little higher than other fields. People face tough times to get hired as data scientists.

So what you can do to improve your chances to get hired, here are the top 5 skills to get hired as a data scientist:

1- Critical thinking and problem solving:-Critical thinking is not something that everyone is born with, it can be learned and understood over time and practice. In this physical world, we always receive problems that are unclear and usual. As a data scientist, you should know how to translate vague and unclear problems into clear, understanding, and measurable problem statements That will help in achieving desired results for your entire project.

2- Programming skills:- Data science is revolving around in this new digital era. Technical knowledge is an integral part of data science. Some of the data scientists are required to write certain instructions to perform a set of tasks and give outcomes for further data analysis.

3- Machine learning and AI:-This field is continuously evolving and hence there is a rise in demand and importance. It is very crucial and extremely required for a data scientist to perform machine learning and AI tasks effectively as everything that a data scientist starts off is highly predictive and machine learning, AI techniques will help them in better decision making and accordingly take appropriate real-time actions without human intervention. This technology is helping in analyzing huge chunks of data through automation that performs repetitive tasks.

4- Data Visualisation and storytelling:- Data visualization and storytelling are data with a life. Data scientists are extremely talented to play around with data but data representation without visually appealing content and storytelling concepts are not sufficient to convey your message to end-users.

A good data scientist not only understands the data but also understands the business requirements and target audience. A good data scientist should have excellent storytelling skills because only a good storyteller will ensure that the result from data analysis and data modeling is conveyed to the right audience through the right channel.

5- Model Deployment:-Your end-users do not care if you have an extremely accurate model if it is not user-friendly. It is unfair for non-technical users to connect with your application or program to see how your model is performing. A good data scientist is able to deploy a model which is accessible to all users without any disconnection. The most attractive invention to achieve this is creating APIs around the model which will connect different applications into one and hence make it more feasible for end-users.

With So Many People Quitting Their Jobs, Don’t Overlook Those Who Stay

Niftel Resources Subject Matter ExpertBlogs

In the recent post-pandemic world, huge turnover has happened from people as they are re-evaluating their life, their careers and no company is safe. Now, a day’s people are preferring the hybrid model due to flexibility in working hours and to create a balance between work and family life. The market for skilled candidates has now shifted and employee retention is one of the key KPIs. This is the first step towards slowing down attrition and regaining your growth arc.

Resignations are real and it is happening. According to reports during April, May, and June, May people will quit their jobs. The report is not over, there 48 percent of people actively looking for and 1 out of 4 employees will opt for job change in the next six months.

So all these reports and numbers are just to make organizations aware that their productivity and business may get a hit during some time. Organizations are a bit confused on 2 parameters, whether to hire only to backfill the positions or to hire additional people so that business will not impact if there are attritions. This imbalance is not about productivity it’s about people.

The suitable way to stabilize your business and to overcome attrition pressure is to increase your retention. We often tend to forget these people, who we are working with day to day, standing with you and completing all the deliverables, contributing to organizational growth. The concern is, they need to be recognized, they need to be seen, they need to be appreciated for their contribution. It’s the responsibility of the manager to make sure that they are recognized and appreciated.

Here are a few steps to be taken for employee retention.

1-Employee Morale Improvement:-Today’s competitive and revolving door environment can dampen the morale of an employee. Besides lack of interest, employees who remain have to take important responsibilities, as a result their motivation and satisfaction also tend to drop. Employees may decide to leave because they find other employees talking about quitting their jobs or actually leaving the organization.

Implementing different programs to boost the morale of the employee, making them heard, seen, and recognized by the management will help in getting the best employees on the field.

2-Focus on tenured employees:-Tenured employees have surpassed their jobs for so long for your organization. They can begin to lose momentum with their work. It’s up to the organization to focus on them once again. Remember they are the employees who are most productive and innovative at times and now they need a little bit of motivation once again to show up their skills and experience.

Tenure is not the thing to blame but organization culture is also included in that. Most of the team leaders start focusing on new talent or new hires thinking Gen X will set up a new example.

Tenured employees are assets for the organization. Team leaders should acknowledge them publically and work on revamping the culture and the workplace.

3-Implement Recruitment and training efficiency programs:- Replacing an employee involves cost. Once the organization finds suitable candidates, they have to be trained. But by focusing on employee retention, these costs can be saved. Also, cross recruitment will help in getting skilled employees at less cost.

4-Better employee experience:- Companies nowadays cannot get enough with offering hire packages and providing health insurance, they should think beyond that to provide employees a better place to work. The employee experience includes interaction with the management and HR personnel, culture, benefits, physical work environment, job satisfaction, tools provided for growth in jobs and all these factors are directly related to organizational growth.

5- Improve employee engagement and satisfaction:- Give your employees flexibility at the workplace. Allow them to shape their role as per their feasibility. Stop doing micromanagement. Reward them, recognize them out-of-year award ceremonies. Work on transparent communication. Look at the issues they are facing with other internal teams in the organization. Train them on different technologies by investing in a good trainer. Try to embed strong, sociable culture across the organization.
