However, working towards your goals pays off.

I am a computer graduate and an MBA by qualification. I started my career with IFMR as a Researcher in financial inclusion. After spending 2 years, I moved&nbsp; to banking with ICICI Bank Ltd, where I gained experience in financial product development, process&nbsp; &amp; policy development, financial statement analysis etc. Having spent nearly 5 years at ICICI Bank, I&nbsp; took a maternity break of around a year.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I did take the maternity break in 2012 for close to a year. Honestly speaking, it was difficult to&nbsp; return to a job after a break. People were doubting my skill sets and my commitment towards the office after having a new-born baby at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I learnt python and completed an online course on Data Science using&nbsp;Python. This step gave me the confidence to take up a job in analytics domain where I could learn&nbsp; while working on analytics projects. I got the opportunity with another start-up (Think Analytics) where I joined as a Project Manager with a responsibility of designing and driving analytics projects&nbsp; for financial institutions (banks\/NBFCs etc.) While being at Think Analytics and working on an analytics&nbsp; project, I realized that I needed a concrete upskill development in the field of Data Science so that I&nbsp; could be more productive for my team by asking the right questions and guiding them better. Thus, I&nbsp; joined Great Learning\u2019s Data Science and Business Analytics program to acquire new skills in the&nbsp;area of Machine Learning, R and Python.&nbsp;Currently, I work with J P Morgan and Chase as a Vice President \u2013 Portfolio Analytics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>So far, I have never faced any professional challenges at any of my work places on account of my gender. I am driven by meritocracy, periodic upskilling and hard work and I strongly believe that my&nbsp; continuous pursuit for learning has been catalysing my career growth.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While working on my tech venture in 2017, I realized that data and technology are the future and I&nbsp; needed to transition my career into this field in order to remain relevant in my professional life. I&nbsp; observed that career transition was not easy and in order to materialize it I needed to brush up my&nbsp; computer application skills since the computer world had changed remarkably from the days I had&nbsp; done my computer graduation. I started reading about all new concepts in the domain of data and&nbsp; technology. Once, while browsing through such articles, I came across the emerging field of Data&nbsp;Science and it caught my attention. I then researched a lot about this domain and decided to give it a&nbsp; try. So, I learnt Python online through a self-learning portal and completed a small module on data&nbsp;science using Python. It broke all my apprehensions about this field and I decided to go for a good&nbsp; classroom program in Data Science.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Generally, you will find women juggling between their professional and personal life and they are&nbsp; always running short of time. <a href=\"https:\/\/www.mygreatlearning.com\/blog\/what-is-data-science\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Data Science<\/a> being a new domain, learning Data Science is perceived to&nbsp; require a considerable time investment, which most of the working women with other household&nbsp;responsibilities find it difficult to commit. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Moreover, those women who do not come from a coding&nbsp; background are more aversive to take a plunge into this new stream.&nbsp; In my opinion, if we want to encourage more women to join Data Science, one needs to work on&nbsp; changing the false perception around this stream from being \u201c<strong><em>too technical-requiring huge time&nbsp;commitment<\/em><\/strong>\u201d to \u201c<strong><em>technical-requiring some time commitment<\/em><\/strong>\u201d.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data Science is an exciting field for anyone who loves telling stories via data. As I mentioned earlier,&nbsp;career transition is never easy especially when you have crossed a certain vintage in your profession.&nbsp;Having said that, it\u2019s not impossible either. I would advise you to first do your homework seriously&nbsp; before committing yourself to transit in this domain. Read as much as you can about Data Science to&nbsp;understand the various aspects of it. Watch a couple of videos to get a sense of this world of&nbsp; data and technology and how it\u2019s shaping the future. If you get excited enough to be part of this&nbsp; evolving field, then assess whether your existing organization supports transition to its Data &amp; Analytics&nbsp; or an equivalent vertical, provided you have the required skill sets. Enrolling for a good Data Science&nbsp;program to upskill yourself should be your final step.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I was looking for a good classroom session on Data Science when I came across Great Learning. When&nbsp;I researched more about the course delivered by Great Learning, I found it to be comprehensive and&nbsp; very well curated from the point of view of application of tools and techniques under Data Science&nbsp; rather than just covering the concepts. The program ensures that the participants not only learn the concepts but are also&nbsp; confident enough to apply those concepts to address business problems. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before joining the program, I could assess that I had to carve out time for this program if I wanted to&nbsp; do justice to my aspiration to upskill myself. So, I was mentally prepared. I am a working-women with&nbsp;child and elderly care responsibilities and hence I needed to manage my time judiciously. One thing&nbsp;that worked for me was that I never missed my classes. I ensured to be present and attentive in each&nbsp; class to grasp all concepts being taught over there. I accommodated three hour per week in my busy&nbsp; schedule to revise the topics being covered by going through the recording sessions and re-doing a few of the classroom exercises at home.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>My upskilling with the acquired Data Science skill sets have boosted my confidence. There is a sense&nbsp; of rejuvenation within me as I am aware that I am ready for the future. This feeling has made me very&nbsp; secure about myself and my skill sets which is getting reflected in any work whether it is in my&nbsp;professional or personal life. Thank you, Great Learning, for facilitating my Data Science journey!&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Getting back to work after a career break can be difficult.
