πŸ… Challenge Overview

Facebook Data Challenge is a sophomore summer program hosted by Facebook for the development of data science and data engineering skills. It consisted of a learning segment, a pitch segment (shown on this page), and a recruiting segment.

Pitch Scenario

Taken from the pitch project document.

You're part of an experimental team -- and you've finally convinced Mark to fund some exploration into starting β€œZuckflix.” The project doesn't have a large budget, so the data team has been tasked with investigating what content we should be buying and producing for Zuckflix.

We have access to a dataset with information about content on Netflix -- and we'd like to analyze trends in the content they're adding to their catalog (the first secret of operations research: when in doubt, copy the market leader πŸ˜‰) -- hopefully with this, we can figure out what to shoot first!
