I'd love your input given your experience.
I am in a slightly different situation, having graduated with a masters a year ago and worked in a university research lab since. Now, I'm out of the lab and trying to stay afloat on contracting work. What's your perspective of maintaining career intertia in the coming years while still paying the bills? Is there any options for recent grads w/o industry experience, perhaps not directly in an MLE/research scientist role? Am I SOL and have to find a job outside ML to pay the bills? If I do, am I screwed on making it back into ML?
