Careers in data science have been listed as the hottest topics in IT in recent years. A recent survey from LinkedIn called “2020 Emerging Jobs Report” listed Data Scientist as one of the top-15 emerging jobs in the UK. It’s no different anywhere else in the world as the profession is getting incredibly popular. Businesses are demanding data scientists more than ever to help them understand their growing databases and uncover useful intelligence.

It’s estimated that there are over 12.000 vacancies in the technology sector in Ireland right now. There is no doubt that the tech sector suffers from a talent shortage all over the world. Big Data or Data Science is one of these areas. The novelty of the term doesn’t help either, which means that we will witness the market literally run to get IT Pros to fill the open opportunities. If we consider that 90% of the data available today was generated in the last 2 years, it’s not difficult to predict the future, it will take some time to have a new bunch of professionals qualified in Bid Data.

Businesses in nearly every industry are being transformed by a massive explosion of data, intelligence from machine learning and advanced analytics. This is largely due to the huge increase in cloud computing.

But how do we make sense of all this data and put it to good use? Data Analytics and Data Science of course. Data science is a very specific set of activities - and skills - that businesses can leverage to their advantage. While it’s not wrong to see data science as a real game changer for business, that doesn’t mean it’s easy to do well.
