Guidance on improving or learning properly Data Science /Machine Learning

Hi maybe a weird one to ask I graduated in 2017 in MSc Data Science. learned SQL ,R Applied Statistic(Basic ML), Big data Hadoop.
Since then worked as data analyst working with SAP and Dashboards, for 2 years. Then moved to a start up which was good worked with python SQL, did various things building automation pipelines , automation, data auditing, few ML projects, looked into LLM for data cleaning. data migration to AWS and data analytics. did a mix of things.

Then moved to a data science role for recommendation system learned how that works but left after few months due pay being to low. Moved to a big cooperation which is a lot more slow paced. The work is more with a cloud provider and dataform moving data pipelines and data adhoc tasks at the moment and looking at work it will take some time where I b working with ML.
But from my experience I have not done much ML projects in terms of learning
to actually understand what and how it work and what to actually what is a good way to learn. If you don't use something you wont get much experience

How do you know which model to use and which one is the right one?
How do move beyond modeling and build a full end to end ml?
What i struggle with is ok which is the right model how do you evaluate it properly
and what do you after it.
Also how many models should I learn and actually understand?

BSc in Biomed and MSC finish in 2022 working in the uni as lab demonstrator

Hi so like the title says I graduated in biomed and work as a lab demonstrator - now I have been trying to apply for mla jobs but it is though to get in. My questions to build a proper career in science are there any better ways or industries to get in. Has anybody been struggling to get into the NHS and made it and worked their way.

Would it be better to look at other industries and focus on better career chances.
Few options I am looking at are

  1. Medical degree in a foreign country - I am 29 not sure it it is worth now
  2. Focus on getting into the NHS but the pay will be less - also in the future how will AI take over the industry with pattern recognition etc?
    3 .Move to a completely different industry has anybody done and is happy?
  3. look into a PhD instead
