Breaking Into Data Science in 2026: What Actually Works Now

The entry-level data science landscape has fundamentally changed - and if you're still following the 'old playbook,' you're setting yourself up for frustration. After 7 years across a startup, Uber, and Stripe, I'm breaking down what actually gets you hired in 2026 (and what's become obsolete) 🔥 This isn't generic LinkedIn career advice. This is the reality check I wish I'd gotten earlier: what foundations you can't skip, how LLMs have changed the game, why starting as a data analyst might be your smartest move, and what skills will actually distinguish you from everyone else with a certification and a GitHub. If you're frustrated by the "just build projects" advice or confused about whether you need a degree, this one cuts through the noise. The path into data science has shifted — here's what's working now ✨ 🕒 Timestamps 00:00 fun intro 00:10 regular intro lol 01:58 your non-negotiables (foundation, application, LLMs) 06:44 breaking in (my real, honest advice) 🧠 Keywords: breaking into data science 2026, entry level data science jobs, how to become a data scientist, data science career change, data analyst to data scientist, LLMs for data science, data science without a degree, getting hired in tech, data science foundations, Claude Code tutorial 👉 Subscribe if you want honest, experience-based takes on what it actually takes to break into data science.

From physics undergrad to startups, Uber, and Stripe, I’ve picked up a lot (and maybe made a lot of mistakes too 😅). This channel is where I break down what it’s actually like to work in tech, reflect on the messy parts of ambition, and talk through both the qualitative and quantitative sides of building a meaningful career. Expect technical data science content, chat about what it's like working at high-growth companies, dealing with imposter syndrome, and figuring out what “success” even means. Subscribe if you’re into data science that feels a little more human 🤍 — and comment anytime, I’d love to hear your story too!! LinkedIn:   / priya-l-520311145
