Mansi Chaudhary

Business Analyst, Westpac

Master of Business Analytics

The capstone project and internship were two brilliant experiences for me. They taught me how to use the technical skills I have learnt in other units to solve real work problems. And that is what is needed the most to get you ready professionally.

During my internship, I worked as a Data Science Intern and was exposed to real-world problems. I developed a resume recommender system ‘Matching Talent’ which will help recruiters to filter out the resumes on the basis of matched skills, experience and qualification.
