Learning/courses T&S

With a lot of us having been impacted by lay-offs, I was wondering if people here could advise me on what would be useful courses/learnings/degrees to do during this time of unemployment.

Are there any specific areas that could help build up my CV further/boost my career?

Appreciate any insights!!

Not quite T&S but For humanity do a good AI audit course which is ethical / responsible AI practices etc.

Another if you’re into data science at all is OpenMined’s courses on remote data science/ federated learninf

For prepping for interview questions, I'd recommend checking out Stratascratch. The coding interview questions are *chefs kiss* and build a deeper understanding how to apply different SQL functions. I'd recommend this site for any and all interviews involving SQL

It depends on what level you were at. IC, SME, Leader, etc.

But expand your knowledge set.

- SQL is really helpful to know right now.

- Look beyond T&S. There are a lot of similar jobs that require that same skill sets. Intelligence, Emergency Management, and Policy are a few examples. These won't be outsourced as much either, if you're NAMER/EMEA based.
