Already, demand is high, salaries are competitive, and the perks are numerous \u2013 which is why Data Scientist has been called &#8220;the most promising career&#8221; by LinkedIn and the &#8220;best job in America&#8221; by Glassdoor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Back in 2009, Google Chief Economist Hal Varian told the McKinsey Quarterly that \u201cthe sexy job in the next 10 years will be statisticians.\u201d As odd as it might seem to use the words \u201csexy\u201d and \u201cstatisticians\u201d in the same sentence, he was right. Ten years later, we\u2019re inundated by data\u20142.5 quintillion bytes of data are generated every day, and much of that data is just waiting to be put to good use. According to researchers from MIT, \u201ccompanies in the top third of their industry in the use of data-driven decision-making were, on average, five percent more productive and six percent more profitable than their competitors\u201d\u2014a significant margin when it hits the bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>All that to say while things are relative (data science comes with its challenges, after all), Data Scientists can expect to be in a very comfortable position well into the future.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading bstn-blocks-heading--h2 has-text-align-left bstn-blocks-heading--divider\" id=\"is-data-science-in-demand\"><h2 class=\"bstn-blocks-heading__heading-element\">Is Data Science in Demand?<\/h2><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-bstn-blocks-indented-content-container bstn-blocks-indented-content-container\"><div class=\"row\"><div class=\"bstn-blocks-indented-content-container__content col col-sm-8 col-sm-offset-1\">\n<p><br>Yes, data science jobs are some of the fastest-growing, most in-demand in technology. Since 2012, Data Scientist roles have increased by 650 percent, and this rise shows no sign of stopping. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that the demand for data science skills will increase another&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bls.gov\/opub\/btn\/volume-7\/big-data-adds-up.htm\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">27.9 percent by 2026<\/a>. And, according to a report from McKinsey, that spells a shortage of between 140,000 and 190,000 people with analytical skills in the U.S. alone\u2014not to mention another 1.5 million managers and analysts who will be required to understand how data analysis drives decision-making.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Data Scientist salaries have also risen with demand; Data Scientists can typically expect to make six figures. Demand also translates into an ability to relocate far more easily\u2014from city to city, and even internationally.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n<div
