My name is Shikha Yadav and I am currently working as a Data Scientist with Fusion Microfinance Ltd as an assistant manager
Prior to joining Great Learning I had a magnificent career in tertiary education and was last engaged with Starex University, Gurugram as an assistant professor. I had 8 years of experience in the education field when I decided to upskill myself.
Being the curious soul that I am, Great learning gave me the perfect platform to serve my ever-growing appetite for learning and push my horizon.
Great learning helped me smoothly drift into the magical realm of Data Science while giving a proliferating boom to my career. I can speak well of project execution because it has been flawlessly adjusted to meet industry standards. I really liked the way the instructor explained the concepts. He/She made it easy to understand even complex topics. They helped me to solidify my understanding of the material. Overall, would rate the module 5 out of 5 stars. I would definitely recommend it to others.
The program gave me a strong foundation in the core concepts of data science, which ultimately helped me secure a 40% hike from my last role. The topics such as statistics, machine learning, and model building and evaluation helped me push my horizon in the domain. Having a solid understanding of these concepts made me better prepared to answer questions about my skills and experience.
My job requires me to oversee numerous projects at once, thus the knowledge I received from the module on predictive modelling has been quite helpful in allowing me to carry out correctly modulated project plans.
