Scenario
Your CEO has decided that the company needs a full-time data scientist, and possibly a team of them in the future. She thinks she needs someone who can help drive data science within the entire organization and could potentially lead a team in the future. She understands that data scientist salaries vary widely worldwide and is unsure what to pay them. To complicate matters, salaries are going up due to the great recession and the market is highly competitive. Your CEO has asked you to prepare an analysis on data science salaries and provide them with a range to be competitive and get top talent. The position can work offshore, but the CEO would like to know what the difference is for a person working in the United States. Your company is currently a small company but is expanding rapidly.
Deliverables
Prepare your analysis in a Jupyter notebook. Your final product should be a PowerPoint (or Google Slides) presentation that clearly states your recommendation to the CEO. CEOs do not care about your code and don’t want to see it. They want to see visuals and a well-thought-out analysis. They also want very concise presentations. The total length must be 4 to 6 pages in PowerPoint.
Final Presentation
Compiled and created from data exploration linked above. The graphs were exported from Jupyter notebook as SVGs and further customized in Adobe Illustrator.
