Here is an excerpt from the interview with Bharath Kumar.
Q1. When and how did you start as a Machine Learning trainer?
I always had a passion for teaching. Three years ago, I trained one of my friend in machine learning and that was the first class I ever took. Post that I realised the importance of explaining complex topics in a simplistic approach. After receiving positive feedback within the friends’ circle, I started pursuing machine learning and deep learning as full-time career options.
Q2. What skills are required to become a Machine Learning trainer?
I believe, problem-solving skills, expertise in statistics, and in-depth business knowledge- are important for anyone who wants to pursue a career in machine learning.
Q3. What do you think makes you stand out from other Machine Learning trainers on UrbanPro.com?
To mention a few points that distinguish me from others are:
1. Only hands-on Sessions are conducted. (We don`t teach theory. Every session is a hands-on experience session. To be precise, we follow the code and then learn the concept).
2. Real-time machine learning case studies: We provide close to 30 case studies for practice purpose. We also have a diversity of domains (We follow Extremely hands-on and Incredible Practice Approach)
3. Placement Record: We have the highest placement record. (Our goal is to deploy 200 Machine Learning engineers across India by 2019. 50 of our students are already placed across multinational companies).
Q4. How did you come across UrbanPro.com?
While searching about tutors and training institutes in Bangalore in the Google search engine, I came across this wonderful website. I would say, UrbanPro has helped me start this journey as a machine learning trainer. My first 5 students were from UrbanPro and it’s from there that the tremendous growth started.
Q5. What was the turning point in your career?
Resigning from my previous job and starting the journey as a full-time trainer was the turning point in my career. This helped me to establish one of the finest networks in Bangalore. We also do consultation projects to stay in touch with industry standards.
Q6. How did UrbanPro.com help you expand your teaching classes?
UrbanPro helped me in a great way-
-
It reduced the burden of searching for students
-
95 % leads that I get are genuine and are really interested to join.
-
We don’t have to worry about SEO, promotions etc. It is a one-stop solution for all your needs when you want to start your career.
Q7. What percentage of your work comes from UrbanPro.com?
Nearly 30 % of my work comes from UrbanPro. I prefer to say, it gives leads/enquiries, which are the most crucial for building any business from a long-term perspective.
