Getting a Data Scientist Job (and Solving the “Kobayashi-Maru Test”)

The Kepler Field of View

Introduction

In this post, I’ll outline a viable plan for becoming a Data Scientist and how I put it into practice step by step to successfully reach my destination. It contains some hard-won knowledge gained along the way — including my solution to the Kobayashi-Maru Test! I hope it will be useful to others hoping to tread the same path.
