Beware you're signing a contract with the devil - Senior Data Analytics Consultant The Data School Employee Review

Thank you for your comments. We are sorry that your experience with the School wasn’t what you wanted. As you are aware The Data School has been designed to launch the analytics careers of anyone with a passion for data. The process of nurturing that passion starts from the application process and carries on far after you have qualified from the school after 2 years and 4 months when you become a member of The Data School Alumni which is for life. The path to an analytics career is usually not possible for most people hence the school being created and it is special in this regard. We commit to making each data school member a great analytics professional by time they have completed the course. Unlike any other job, for the first 4 months, you are trained and certified by some of the leading professionals in the analytics space whilst getting paid of course as this is full time employment. Following this is 2 years of placements. The value of this work experience is clearly explained in the interview process. These placements are essential to round out your experience as a data analytics consultant. Once you have graduated jobs are available to you in abundance. Its interesting that you say salaries are below industry standard but it would be impossible to get to that salary level without the Data School education. I’m sorry that you feel this way about the school when so many who have completed their commitments (who are now in the Alumni) have sparkling careers now in analytics.
