The live sessions at AlmaBetter promote activity and ensure synchronous learning.

Hey everyone, my name is Varun Nayyar, and I am a B.Sc (physics) graduate from Delhi University. The practical coursework in my college curriculum introduced me to statistical analysis. I was hooked from the beginning and read more about it. Soon I came to know about data science - a field that entirely revolves around statistics and analysis. I decided to join AlmaBetter and secured an offer from PaisaBazaar within 28 weeks of the program commencement.

Data science is the perfect blend of business and technology, and it combines the aspects of both worlds. Since most jobs are either from a business or tech domain, data science is the safest option to start with to explore both worlds and then choose the next step in your professional journey. AlmaBetter’s Pay After Placement model allowed me to explore the world of data science without worrying about the financial aspect. The risk-free approach by AlmaBetter is very beneficial for young students like me.

Data Science is a vast and challenging field, and you need the proper guidance to secure a job in this domain. AlmaBetter provides students with a dedicated career coach for support and guidance throughout the placement drive. Also, mock interviews helped clear all the doubts and enhanced my confidence for the actual interview.

AlmaBetter’s curriculum is fantastic. It encompasses most concepts needed for being competent enough to work in a corporate setting. The live sessions promote activity and ensure synchronous learning. The weekly mentorship sessions are like the chef's kiss of the whole boot camp. They help us bridge the gap between knowing theoretical concepts and practical industry application and implementation.

My advice would be to work hard and leave the rest to the Alma folks. They know what they are doing, and you are definitely in safe hands. Just don't give up in the middle and stick till the end, and you're bound to get success. A few weeks of consistent efforts can make tremendous differences.
