Few things
1) Usually they look for a quantitative degree, so if you have a Masters in Econ/Stats/Comp Sci/Math it helps a lot. I have mine in Stats.
2) Need to be an expert in SQL, Tableau or SAS and SAS Visual Analytics. Expertise in Python/R is also required. Excel skills should be top notch.
3) Able to write highly automatable and efficient code that takes as few resources as possible because algorithms tend to take a lot of time to converge. Datasets tend to be quite large, few gigs in normal
4) Solid knowledge of Gradient Boosting, Deep Learning (ANN, RNN, CNN), Regression, Decision Trees, Ensemble Modeling. Also need to know how to deal with imbalanced classes, data transformation, feature selection and feature engineering.
5) Most of all you need to have an inquisitive mind and be able to spin a story different ways. Need to be able to present information to a non-technical audience.
