VANTAGE KNOWS HOW TO RECRUIT CHIEF DATA SCIENTISTS
DATA DRIVEN EXECUTIVES HIRING TRENDS
“Data science has finally come of age. With the huge promise of big data holding the keys for the next wave of SaaS analytics, companies everywhere are strengthening their bench in data science. Netbase, a client of Vantage’s, which has built a world-class social analytics platform, is discovering multiple ways they can leverage their vast repository of social data. Data scientists are opening up new business models.
Data Scientists are getting pulled up the ranks into leadership positions and are no longer an off-shoot of the IT department. The challenge is talent supply has been tight and the demand for this finite group is forcing companies to get aggressive with their approach and hiring tactics.”
