What is it about?
. Distinguishing between roles like Data Scientist, Data Engineer, Data Analyst, and Business Intelligence Developer can be challenging, as there can be overlap in responsibilities, focuses, and skill sets across these positions. By understanding these distinctions, job seekers can better align their skills and interests with the specific requirements and factors of each role, thereby increasing their chances of finding a fulfilling career in the data field. To address what factors distinguish these positions, we developed machine learning models capable of clarifying the distinctions among these positions based on relevant features extracted from the dataset. The proposed learning models leverage relevant features extracted from the dataset to differentiate between roles accurately. Factors such as technical skills, programming languages, educational background, work experience, and certifications likely play crucial roles in distinguishing between these positions. By incorporating these features into the models, they can effectively identify patterns and characteristics unique to each role. The high accuracy (approximately 99%) achieved by these models not only validates their effectiveness but also underscores the importance of understanding the nuances and specific requirements of each role within the data field. Armed with this knowledge, both job seekers and employers can make more informed decisions when it comes to hiring, career planning, and talent acquisition.
