#80 The Rise of Hybrid Jobs & the Future of Data Skills (with Matt Sigelman)

It’s no secret that data science jobs are on the rise, but data skills across the board are rising — leading to what today’s guest calls “hybrid jobs.” This will require a paradigm shift in how we think about jobs and skills. Today’s guest, Matt Sigelman, President of The Burning Glass Institute & Chairman of Emsi Burning Glass, talks about the difficulties of connecting companies with top talent, the hybridization of many positions, and how to position yourself in the ever-changing market. Join us as we discuss: - The methodology of using data science on the labor market - The demand for data skills & how they’re evolving - Blending skills to get ahead in the job market & the rise of subskills - How educational institutions can prepare students for hybridization - Advice to the audience on how to structure their approach to skill acquisition Here are some interesting reads: What to do after becoming a certified data scientist through DataCamp | DataCamp https://www.datacamp.com/blog/what-to-do-after-becoming-a-certified-data-scientist-through-datacamp How to ship data science projects quickly | DataCamp https://www.datacamp.com/blog/how-to-ship-data-science-projects-quickly 3 types of collaborators on data science projects | DataCamp https://www.datacamp.com/blog/3-types-of-collaborators-on-data-science-projects Please subscribe to the podcast on Itunes and give us a rating and review!
