Is Data Science Hard? 4 Untold Truths about Learning Data Science
Did you flirt with the idea of learning data science? You are not alone. This has been a really hot topic in the last few years and it will be one in the upcoming few, for sure. Yet, very few people actually become data scientists.

In this podcast episode, I want to show you four untold truths that you should know about learning data science – and I have never seen them written down anywhere else before.
