Hiring-side brief
What a data or ML seat actually costs you
BLS wages and outlook, Sculley on maintenance, RAND interview method, and the popular figures this brief will not treat as fact.
Before you post the req, write the failure you need owned.
Finish this sentence: this person owns _____.
- The pipeline when it breaks at two a.m.
- Late, missing, or malformed input.
- The number nobody can trace.
If you cannot finish it, you do not have a data scientist job yet. You have a title. The notebook can look fine. Nothing is in production.
Issue 3
Nobody reopens a two
A severity field that arrives before impact is a document that will outlive the room.
Issue 2
The review pass put a checkmark on the wrong number
Ship-to-door is not order-to-door. Write both clocks before the next deck.
Issue 1
The dashboard was green. You found out from a VP in the hallway.
How a green board watches the wrong door, and the four fields to write before the next hire.
