We have Calvin Ng, Head of Equality and Linking at Equifax and Patrick Choy, Senior Consultant at Talent Insights Group. Today we are focusing on teams. Everything from hiring, how to structure them, retention and more useful tips. Patrick shared some tips for data scientists who want to differentiate themselves when going through recruitment processes. For him, communication is key and he encourages people to communicate their past successes and show the recruiters how they could use that knowledge and experience to create a positive impact for their business. We touched on how some jobs may be advertised as data science roles and once hired, individuals realize the work needed to be done is not what they expected or part of the data field. Companies don't always have a good handle on exactly where they sit in the data maturity curve and many of them are still very much starting their data journey. For Calvin, this is an exciting opportunity for professionals who are willing to take on the challenge of helping them create their data science teams and structure from the ground. As individuals continue to upscale their skills and organizations try to involve more data science in their processes, the field and competition in it will grow, so stay tuned to hear insightful tips from Australia’s leading data specialist recruitment business, Talent Insights. Quote: The high performing team is the team who trust each other, learn from each other and has a diverse set of skills and viewpoints.
