Just wanted to share the win I've been wanting to get for several months... I got a new job in the data science / ML field, where the domain matches my masters degree. I start today.
If it weren't for this group and what I learned from it, I might not have made it through the interview process (4 rounds plus a take-home assignment). I also want to encourage others to keep at it, not give up, even when things seem darkest. Success may just be around the corner!
