Benefits of Data Science Focused Career Fairs

Since the early 2010s, opportunities and positions in the data science field have been considered everything from “in-demand” to “sexy.” LinkedIn’s 2017 Emerging Jobs Report once again confirms this by illustrating how there are 9.8x more machine learning engineers and 6.5x more data scientists today than there were 5 years ago. The demand continues to rise as does the emerging talent in the field.

Due to limited supply of data scientists and endless demand for their skills, companies of all shapes and sizes struggle to fill the demands on their business organizations and effectively recruit qualified candidates in machine learning, AI or related fields. As such, the question comes to be: how can companies effectively connect to qualified candidates in the competitive hiring market of the data science space?

Removing the Tediousness of the Candidate Search: Data Science Dedicated Job Fairs

Data-science focused job fairs are stepping in to fill this apparent gap in the data science candidate hiring lifecycle. Talent and opportunity meet face-to-face at these career fairs that are specifically designed and implemented to meet the needs of both employer and candidate.

ODSC London 2018 has such a career fair that specifically caters to the needs of employers in the data science and artificial intelligence space. The entire structure of the career fair removes the painstaking and time consuming work of direct recruitment for companies as ODSC Europe hosts 1,500 talented, passionate, and professional data scientists and software engineers.

Aligning Candidate Skill Sets to Prime Opportunities in Data Science

There is no guess work here. The ODSC Job Fair enables data science candidates to connect directly to prospective employers according to their skillsets, expertise(s) and knowledge areas.
