How to get a Data Science Job
It wasn’t working.
I was clueless.
Nothing felt harder than this.
And no, I wasn’t struggling to get a Data Science Job (I’d already figured that out lol).
I was trying to become Iron Man - a.k.a gain some muscle.
I’d read some advice online about what to do.
I even went as far as buying some courses.
Everyone had similar advice - eat in a calorific surplus, lift 3-5 times a week, yada yada yada.
And whilst some bits of the process I was good at - like losing fat.
I really struggled with gaining weight to add muscle.
Whatever I ate, my results on the scale went up and down like a roller-coaster.
February this year, I’d given up on bulking.
I told myself I’d stop tracking my food and eat like a ‘normal person’.
I felt so lost.
I though I knew a lot about the gym and that I didn’t need to pay for anymore help.
But then something changed.
I found something different.
Whilst everyone on Twitter preached about losing weight.
One person stood out.
He couldn’t stop talking about bulking.
And he’s a fucking unit.
Nothing else was working for me.
And I couldn’t stand the thought of more months not knowing what to do.
Not getting any closer to my goal of getting a Data Science Job (sorry I meant putting on muscle).
So I pulled the trigger.
I signed up for his coaching.
I always had the safety of cancelling after the first month if I didn’t like it.
4 Months later I’m loving it.
My weight gain issues are a thing of the past - I’m up 4kg since we started.
From 80kg to 84kg.

Which is roughly where I should be - you want to gain ~ 1kg each month.
Whilst I thought I only needed help with what to eat, he fixed up issues I didn’t even know I had.
Like I wasn’t doing enough upper back exercises.
Or I wasn’t lifting as much as I could have as I wasn’t using lifting straps.
Because whilst you think you may be doing well, you’re often doing things wrong which you’re not even aware of.
These are called blind spots.
And when you get someone who’s achieved what you want (like finding a Data Science Job) and helped others do the same.
They point out YOUR blind spots.
And you reach your goal much faster.
Like me - bulking is a piece of cake for me right now.
But only because I got coaching from an expert.
Else I’d still be stuck in skinnyville.
So if you’re serious about reaching your goals.
And want to avoid months of feeling lost.
Wandering if you’ll ever get a Data Science Job.
Get a Coach.
