An open follow-up question:
(Assuming we are indeed living in a world overly enthusiastic about ML)
How do you - a professional that doesn't just throw ML at everything but focuses on the "boring stuff" - position yourself in the job market?
Sounds like a bit of a hard sell, especially if you're also charging more than the other ML-eager prospects. (i.e., you know you are the best person for the gig, but the proposal is likely to fall flat due to the expectations of the people hiring you)
- tixocloud 6y agoFor me, I’d position myself as one who’s focused on value and focused on results. For new clients, you can lower your rates but ultimately clients buy trust that you can deliver what they need. Soft skills are highly undervalued in the tech community yet if you start speaking with management and other non-tech stakeholders, you’ll quickly find out how valuable you are.
