Thanks for the post, I am starting a role as a data analyst soon and am curious to hear more about two aspects of your role: 1. How are the dynamics between engineering team, product managers and data scientists. Understand that LinkedIn's data team plays a huge role in creating and improving features (like People you may know), how is it like at Facebook, and in general other companies? Engineers build things, managers make decisions, data scientists answer questions 2. What are the tools you use ( I see R mentioned in the thread), what books would you recommend? I mostly write in python, use D3 and gephi for visualization. Am also taking the Coursera course on Social Network Analysis (https://class.coursera.org/sna-2012-001/class/index https://class.coursera.org/sna-2012-001/class/index) and reading the course book Easley & Kleinberg, Networks, Crowds and Markets. Thanks for sharing again.
