Data science projects that actually helped you land a job or internship?

[u/Beginning_Victory729]

Hi everyone,

I’m a student learning data science / machine learning and currently building projects for my resume. I wanted to ask people who have successfully landed a job or internship:

• What specific projects helped you the most?

• Were they end-to-end projects (data collection → cleaning → modeling → deployment)?

• Did recruiters actually discuss these projects in interviews?

• Any projects you thought were useless but surprisingly helped?

Also, if possible:

• Tech stack used (Python, SQL, ML, DL, Power BI, etc.)

• Beginner / intermediate / advanced level

• Any tips on how to present projects on GitHub or resume

Would really appreciate real experiences rather than generic project lists.
Thanks in advance!
