Hiring for Data Science: What’s the First Thing Your Firm Will Have Them Do?

Chief Innovation Officer Shawn Swearingen led a presentation at the Business Intelligence & Analytics in the Legal Profession Conference that discussed how legal professionals can assess aspiration against capability to produce the road map that will illuminate project goals, as well as the necessary resources needed to accomplish them.

The presentation also discussed how to learn to identify resource deficits in order to make informed hires and create a project pipeline that correlates with the data strategy road map and avoids “piecing together low-yield projects to get the ball rolling.”
