WORK EXPERIENCE

OhCleo Stockholm Sweden (2 months) global internship

At OhCleo, I was expected to show up from 10–5pm everyday except Monday and Thursday. I was responsible for checking the latest posts and engage with content from 2 different pseudo-name accounts. Throughout my internship I switched hats between Social Media and the Data Science Team. I worked on mySQL code and created a dashboard where I posted all my progress of queries I made. Some of the queries I made used google and chatGBT resources to help guide me, and I realized the working space is highly reliant on online sources. Then I also created meeting notes for weekly meeting and lastly, I reached out to other creators off of OhCleo to recruit them on to our app with a pseudo account.

At my summer internship in Stockholm, Sweden I was eager to learn how a data science internship would look like at a start-up. In the past, I’ve been very skeptical of start-ups because of the lack of funding and support a bigger funded company would have. However little did I know, I receive 1:1 meetings and good feedback on my work. I learned that the start-up market is amazing, as long as it gets enough funding. I also learned that any type of work required time and commitment, and with enough consistency and reaching out to the right people you will be successful. Now throughout the process, one’s definition of success might change, however, this experience is like a pot of gold. It special and rather than spending the summer at home in the States I got to experience abroad for the very first time. I learned that even though I am abroad there are resources available for me, and as an emerging adult I am capable of taking a care of myself. Absolute Internship made it a safe and welcoming space for me to communicate to my employer safely with the safety net that I have someone else to advocate for me in the working space from absolute internship.

I enjoyed the freedom I had away from what was familiar to me in the States. Everything felt brand new and different, which I had anticipated. I felt like I was in a movie everyday, and that there was endless potential for me to explore. Given that I didn’t have much money, the least I can be grateful for is that I was poor in a new country and although I didn’t have loads of money to spend, it was fantastic to simply see people around me that speak a whole different language. The scholarship significantly impacted my decision to participate in the Stockholm program because though I need money, I often don’t have the energy or autonomy to apply and I always feel immense doubt and feel the fear of rejection that restricts me from applying. Since the Nordic Scholarship was a guarantee, it was a big push towards my application and one less thing I needed to worry about.

CHAT GBT’s hype for me:

- **KPIs (Key Performance Indicators) and Data Analysis:** You were involved in analyzing data related to the platform’s performance. You used key metrics like earnings, engagement, and user activity to measure the platform’s success.

- **Batch Processing and Real-Time Data:** You dealt with both batch processing and real-time data processing. Batch processing involves processing data in chunks or batches, while real-time data processing involves handling data as it arrives.

- **Joining Tables and Complex Computations:** You performed data manipulations by joining different tables to extract relevant information. This allowed you to perform complex computations and derive insights from the data.

- **Earnings Calculation for Creators:** You calculated the earnings for creators based on various factors such as subscription, tips, and unlock. This likely involved complex formulas and data processing to ensure accurate calculations.

- **User Engagement and Interaction Analysis:** You analyzed user engagement metrics such as likes, comments, and plays. This helped you understand which content was most popular and how users interacted with the platform.

- **Retention Analysis:** You worked on analyzing user retention and cohort analysis. This involves studying how users engage with the platform over time, which helps in understanding user behavior patterns.

- **Messaging and Communication Analysis:** You examined user messaging behavior, including direct messages (DMs). This likely involved counting the number of messages sent and received and identifying patterns in user communication.

- **Creator Activation and Onboarding Analysis:** You analyzed the onboarding process for creators, including their activation journey from sign-up to creating content and engaging with the platform’s features.

- **Top Performer Identification:** You identified top-performing creators based on metrics such as likes, comments, and earnings. This likely involved complex queries and data sorting.

- **Data Visualization:** You visualized data using tables and graphs to present insights and findings in a clear and organized manner.

- **Recommendations and Insights:** You made assumptions, suggestions, and provided insights based on your analysis. This might have included suggestions for improving the platform’s performance, user engagement, and revenue generation.

Throughout your internship, you engaged with databases, analyzed data, and used SQL queries and data manipulation techniques to extract valuable information. Your work contributed to understanding user behavior, optimizing creator engagement, and improving the overall platform experience.
