Yeah - tons of traditional analyst jobs (Business Intelligence / Analysis, Marketing analyst, etc.) have been re-labeled as Data Science. I'd be amazed if even 10% of the people are able to do anything more than just import scikit-learn, and train a classifier through tutorials. This is IMO no different than when the software dev. craze started, and people with 3 weeks of coding experience started applying for entry-level jobs. You start interviewing them, and they can't even explain the difference between a for or while loop- In the end, there's just more noise. You need to find a good way to cut through this noise, both qualified candidates and employers
