I recruited for one data science job. The hiring manager was super focused on getting someone with a PhD. Is that the norm for a position like that?

- randcraw 10y agoSome companies know what skills they need, others don't. For those who don't know, but want a typical statistical modeler, a PhD in statistics is the safest choice, then a PhD in machine learning or MS in stats, after that, you need to look for the presence of specific skills... like deep learning for image recognition or the Hadoop stack.
