Hi! I’m close to graduating with a masters in business analytics from the University of Minnesota, and have about three years of experience in healthcare (marketing analytics) and some experience in fintech (product analytics and experimentation). I’m looking to connect with someone who can help me break into data science and analytics positions in through profile review and general advice. It’ll be much appreciated!

      What level of influence do potential stakeholders have in the decision-making process during a peer interview? For instance, in my upcoming 3rd round interview involving three peers, following successful phone screenings and VP interviews, would a scenario where one peer has a positive impression while the others don't, or vice versa, significantly impact my chances of securing the job?
