Emma Ding is a data scientist turned career coach. Previously she was a data scientist and software engineer at airbnb. I first discovered her through a viral Medium blog called “how I got 4 data science offers and doubled my income 2 months after being laid off". Today, her mission is to help data scientists land their dream offers by being strategic and efficient in their interview preparation at https://www.datainterviewpro.com/.
