What our Alumni has to say!
As a JS developer I was making a modest salary in a stagnant role and I wasn't excited about my prospects. With this course, I got a 86% hike.
Even with a B.E in E&C, I knew that I needed a specialization to make a mark. I opted for an online course & soon realized it won’t be enough. But this program with hackathons, datathons & industry interactions truly gave me my edge. And today, I’m with Amazon.
As a BBM Graduate, I had almost accepted that I can never get into Analytics but this program didn't just bring me in my dream job but also enabled me to get a salary hike of 110%.
This course by MAHE & Jigsaw Academy is the best option for someone who wants to pursue a career in Data Analytics. It's a good course with a highly experienced teaching faculty.
This program is amazing for those candidates who want a career transition or who are looking to start their career in the field of analytics. It's best to focus on the curriculum they made, and if you follow it strictly you will definitely have a good job just the way I did.
I recently finished this Data Science program from MAHE & got placed in one of my dream companies, Equifax!
Even during the pandemic, the placement team worked really hard to bring companies in. It was a big transition for me from the networking domain to this Data Science world but I finally got selected as a Business Consultant Intern at Eversana.
The placement process started in the second term of the program & many Data Science-based companies like Equifax, dhiOmics & Fractal Analytics came to hire learners across several roles like Data Science Consultants, Data Analysts, Machine Learning Scientist, etc. I’m happy I got placed in Equifax & am thrilled to start my Data Science journey.
