5 out of 5 stars
If you are looking for a data science mentor, don't walk, run to Cheng! Coming from a purely academic research background, the transition to an industry data science role was daunting. Cheng helped me with everything from rewriting my resume and developing a job application strategy to preparing for interviews and, finally, negotiating my salary. Cheng has in-depth knowledge of the current data science job market. She helped me analyze each role and tailor my interview strategies accordingly. She is incredibly responsive, flexible, and always made time for an interview preparation session when I needed one. Together, we analyzed every facet of the interview process so I knew exactly what to prepare for and what to look out for. If you need mentorship support during the challenging job search process, Cheng is the absolute best option out there.
