Data Science for Retention of College Women in Tech

Data Science for Retention of College Women in Tech

2020

For our Data+ project, we partnered with Rewriting the Code (RTC), a non-profit organization committed to empowering and fostering a community of college women with a passion for technology. We developed company and industry profiles for the recruitment process that included information ranging from interview and offer rate to negotiation success of salary and benefits. Additionally, we conducted text-analysis of resumes to understand the structure of an optimal tech resume and utilized linear regression to determine the influence of different variables such as ethnicity or college rank.
