My journey into Data Science
Why Data Science?
Being a Business Analyst, I was aware that many companies have centred their businesses on data. The demand for Data professionals was going to only increase. The future is bright in data-related profiles and I can see a secure future for myself. After some experience as a Business Analyst, Data Science would be the perfect next step for a career-upgrade. So, I was sure of getting into Data Science.
Why Dimensionless?
When you set out to learn a new skill, the biggest hurdle is finding the relevant content. After finding it, a bigger hurdle is learning it thoroughly.
I did my own research over a couple of days. I came across many courses and after going through many data science courses online I landed on Dimensionless website. When I had a word with a Dimensionless mentor, who reserved a seat for me at their Demo Class. Coming from a similar background, I could judge their knowledge and course curriculum. At the time, Dimensionless was the only class offering the flexibility of time (post-work and weekend classes), a holistic curriculum and mentor-led classes. I decided to sign-up for the ‘Data Science Specialization Course with Python and R’ at Dimensionless.
Experience with Dimensionless?
My experience with Dimensionless was excellent. All the topics were very well-taught and in-depth concepts are covered. The best thing is that I could resolve doubts instantly during the live sessions. The mentors were very friendly and made sure everyone’s doubts were cleared. In fact, they have always happily helped me with my issues even after the course was completed.
Dimensionless makes learning interesting by explaining the concepts well with practical implementation simultaneously. They allow you to attend different classes if you want to expedite your learning or missed any class. HR is very supportive in giving placement assistance and also gives personal attention to build up the resume as well. I definitely recommend Dimensionless to everyone and anyone who is serious about Data Science.
Career Transition to Data Science
During the last 1 month of the course, with the help of project mentoring and resume-building activities at Dimensionless, I updated my profile. After my resume-building was completed, I started searching for internships in Data Science and finally ended up in a start-up as a Data Science Intern. After completing my internship for 5 months I again started applying for jobs.
With the help of Dimensionless network and placement assistance, I was able to apply to many companies for Data Science. After circulating my resume and interviewing in my companies I finally got my first job in the Data Science field as a Tableau Consultant. I always loved visualizing data with business domain knowledge and really got lucky to get into my field of interest.

Profile: Data Scientist Designation: Manager – Data Science
My journey into Data Science
Why Data Science?
Frankly, I started finding my job a bit monotonous. Testing was a lucrative career a few years back, but with new technologies coming in, I wanted to explore the possibility of upskilling and switching careers. I spoke to friends and researched a bit about Data Science. Since I was not from a coding background, I really worried whether I could learn to code efficiently. I tried to understand R and Python on my own. There were 2 things I found out: the languages are basically plain English, easy to understand, and I will definitely need guidance because Data Science is much more than just learning a language.
Why Dimensionless?
I had enquired in a lot of institutes. While the curriculum and other offerings were perfect, there was one particular detail for which I was convinced to join Dimensionless. I did not want to learn with 40-50 other people in a class, where the teacher hardly has any time to interact or resolve doubts. There was one institute which said that they have around 120 people in one batch! Dimensionless promised to not have more than 20 people in one batch!
Also, when I spoke to one of the mentors, he carefully studied my background and made me understand my career transition path in the first call itself. It gave me the confidence to finally pursue Data Science. I enrolled with Dimensionless for their next batch.
Experience with Dimensionless?
Really good. The classes were very interactive. Teachers ensured that everyone participated in the class. They would ask us to answer in individually and explain patiently whenever we were wrong or were confused. It hardly felt like a virtual classroom. Mentors were always available to have a word or discuss any doubts we had.
Career Transition to Data Science
For cracking interviews in Data Science, or any Tech, it is essential you have hands-on knowledge. To practice on real-time projects, I started practising Data Science techniques I had learnt in Dimensionless in my then-current project. Another thing that helped was the Resume Upgrading sessions and Case Studies given by Dimensionless.
I got a lot of exposure and confidence for interviews. Almost 5-6 job openings were shared every day by the Dimensionless Team. It took me some time but I finally started hearing back from good companies. I got offers from SpectraMedix, Genpact and Excel. My current company wanted to retain me and they offered me an internal transfer. That’s where my Data Science journey began.

Success Story: Switching from Data Engineer to Data Scientist
I believe anyone with patience, passion and guidance can learn Data Science.

My journey into Data Science
Why Data Science?
Being a Data Engineer, I always felt like I belonged to the field of Data. I could see how the tech was moving. All the businesses are becoming Data-oriented and automation is the need of the hour. Once Cloud Technology is stable, Artificial Intelligence is going to dominate the trend. During my Masters, I had Statistics as a subject and used it heavily in a project. My Masters’ thesis was with MATLAB, using concepts and fundamentals of Data Science.
So, I was sure of getting into Data Science.
Why Dimensionless?
While looking for a program, the only challenge was finding a class with a well-balanced curriculum. I tried understanding the curriculum of a lot of classes, some of them had a very high-level curriculum while others were not covering any relevant knowledge. Also, I did not want to go to any well-known classes because teachers aren’t able to give personalized attention.
Since this is a serious subject, the only way I could be sure about any course would be if a credible source vouched for it. A friend (an ex-student of Dimensionless) strongly recommended the Data Science course from Dimensionless. Their curriculum was balanced for anyone who wanted to start in Data Science. In fact, the first demo I attended was on Statistics. It is essential to start with Statistics and Mathematics to grasp Data Science fully.
If you see the progression, going from being a Data Engineer to being Data Scientist was an obvious step forward.
Experience with Dimensionless?
Good course structure and in-depth teaching were 2 key factors that impressed me at Dimensionless. Learning Data Science takes time and effort from both the teacher and the students. We got that at Dimensionless.
Also, people coming from a Data background are usually weak at programming. The teachers made it easy for us to understand and learn Python.
The teachers covered a lot of ground for all the subjects and they were always available for clearing our doubts. I was satisfied with the course structure and the teaching method.
Career Transition to Data Science
Luckily, in my previous company, they were building an AI team and testing various projects. At the end of the course, I got support from Dimensionless to prepare with Mock Interviews.
I applied to be a part of the AI Team at my company and got selected through a written test and interview. The exposure was immense. I got to work on multiple projects from scratch. We discussed Use Cases and projects in-depth, covering even the business aspects of it.
After that, I knew I could comfortably face any Data Science or AI interview.

Company: Amazon State Street Syntel Profile: Operations Designation: Deputy Manager Domain: BFSI Experience: 2.2 years
Company: Google Profile: Data Analysis Designation: Deputy Manager Domain: KPO (IT) Software
My journey into Data Science
Why Data Science?
During my MBA days, or even when I was working at Amazon State Street Syntel, I kept hearing about AI & Data Science and the new projects that were coming up. Everyone always got excited when they spoke about Data Science. I was always good at Maths. Coming from a background of Business Studies, data crunching and data analysis always fascinated me. I wanted to have a holistic point of view of the business trends and future forecasting.
I understood that Data Science focuses on Problem Solving, Analytical Skills and Domain Knowledge. In my job also, I was working on Reporting and business analysis. So, that’s where my liking to Data Science began.
Why Dimensionless?
I did a lot of research to find the perfect classes. I checked their reviews and contacted a couple of students who had done their course to be doubly sure and they all verified that the teachers would deep dive into the subjects and give individual attention to all students.
After a discussion based on my profile with the mentors, I was able to get beyond my fears of programming.
In the Demo sessions, I liked their teaching method and the teacher’s knowledge. And, that’s what mattered the most for me.
Experience with Dimensionless?
I was never into any technical role, never even had any technical subjects. Really, I didn’t know how I was going to cope with the coding bit. It was difficult at the start. The classes progressed and I found it easier to understand Python and Machine Learning. By the end of the course, I got quite good at coding. I asked a lot of doubts in the classes and the teachers were always ready to help.
Career Transition to Data Science
With the help of project mentoring and resume-building activities at Dimensionless, I updated my profile. They suggested the apt projects and skills for adding to my profile, which made it a bit relevant to my domain knowledge too. Frankly, I thought I will have to give a lot of interviews before I crack one. After a walk-in interview, I got the idea about the kind of questions asked in Data Science interviews. I nailed it in the next interview and got placed to a position similar to my previous one.

Company: BNY Melon Profile: Oracle, PL/SQL Developer Designation: Team Lead, Database Management Domain: Finance Experience: 8 years
Company: Barclays Profile: Data Analyst Designation: Team Lead Domain: Finance
My journey into Data Science
Why Data Science?
There wasn’t much growth in PL/SQL and Database Management after a certain level. After reaching that level and giving about 8 years to one technology, and it was scary to move to newer technology. So I started looking at how I could build on stuff I already knew. I knew how to use and store the data. Now, I was more interested in the business side of it. I was interested in predictive analytics to help businesses apply this data and get insights from it. Data Science would help me do that. Because of this interest, Machine Learning and Data Science was an obvious choice.
Why Dimensionless?
One of my trusted friends did his course from Dimensionless and recommended it to me. He too was able to transition from Database Management to Data Science.
After checking out the course myself, I found it to be good in every aspect. My main issue was timings, but they provided the flexibility of attending classes in the morning or evening. Plus, there were weekend classes which covered the most syllabus. The faculty looked promising since they were all from Machine Learning background, they had worked in this technology. After the Demo, I was convinced completely.
Experience with Dimensionless?
I had a very good experience with Dimensionless. One thing I really liked was that the faculty gave equal attention to all the students. Even the doubts were resolved quickly by the teachers. Any issues we had were discussed either in the lecture itself or personally too. We got assignments and case studies that helped us get hands-on experience in the applications of Data Science, which was the most interesting part for me.
Career Transition to Data Science
After the course was done, I started giving interviews. The Placement Assistance really helped me here. Right from resume preparation to mock interviews, Dimensionless prepared us for everything. We were given a set of questions to prepare from and then mock interview would be held. I think these activities boosted my confidence more than anything else.
Within 2 months after the course, I got placed in Barclays as a Data Analyst with R and Python.
