I have a doubt, my son is currently in mba after bsc in math, he always wanted to become a data analyst or data scientist. But he is not getting any jobs, regretting the decision of not opting for mca or msc in IT/cs. He saw a professor who studied btech/mtech and mba, in the same way , can he opt for msc in it after working for 2 years, since there is no age limit for studying and during mba, he also had a friend who is in mba at the age of 29, still he got a job after age gap. Please give us some hope. Do companies see like this person was not stable in education or they will see only the current skills and degree for the job, since DA and DS requires CS degree.

Ans: If he wants to get into the DA or DS role, he would preferably have the required skill set. So it makes sense to do additional course in those areas and simultaneously can look for jobs. Each company has got its own requirements. Not getting placed in few of them does not mean that you cannot get placed. Keep searching for a right fit company.
