Is the data job market broken — or just reshuffled?
The vibes are all over the place. Some people have tons of opportunities; others have been job hunting for six months. What separates the two camps?
Ryan and Aaron sit down with Jeff Wolgamuth and Michael Butts from Birchworks, a 19-year executive search firm specializing in data engineering, data science, and AI placements, to get the real story on what's happening in data hiring right now.
We dig into:
- Where the demand actually is (and where it isn't)
- Why listing tools on your resume doesn't cut it anymore — and what to show instead
- The three things employers want to see from every candidate
- How fraud is reshaping the hiring process
- What it takes to break into leadership — and why the CDO role has fundamentally changed
- Compensation trends: who's getting raises and who's getting squeezed
- The fractional career path and why PE firms can't get enough of it
- Honest advice for juniors entering a brutal entry-level market
- Emerging trends: RLHF, frontier LLM certifications, and what's next
Whether you're actively job hunting, thinking about your next move, or just want to know where the market is headed, this one's for you.
