As someone who has been producing value in a data science/machine learning role for multiple years, it's disheartening to see comments that I may be blacklisted from positions due to "only" having a bachelor's degree.
Somewhat non-humbly, I was valedictorian at my high school, I triple-majored at a respectable Big 10 school, I actively use all 3 majors on a daily basis, in a foreign country, and sometimes in a language that is not my mother tongue (as an American).
I can't justify spending time and money on a master's degree (millennial wealth problems) where many courses would just be putting a formal, academic spin on ideas that I'm familiar with from a practical business-value-producing point of view.
Any advice on how I can effectively jump off the black-lists?
