Look inside
In this liveProject, you’ll step into the life of a budding data scientist looking for their first job in the industry. There are thousands of potential roles being advertised online, but only a few that are a good match to your skill set. Your challenge is to use data science tools to automate the process of trawling through job listings, to save time as you optimize your resume, identify the most in-demand skills, and find jobs that are a good fit for you. To do this you’ll use Python to perform Natural Language Processing and text analysis on pre-scraped data from jobs posting websites.
This project is designed for learning purposes and is not a complete, production-ready application or solution.
