    Amazon Operational Strategy & People Analytics Externship

    Imagine shaping how AMAZON — yes, THE Amazon — welcomes and keeps its workforce. Every year, Amazon loses billions because new hires leave before Day 90. You’re going to fix that. In this externship, you’ll web scrape real-world employee reviews from across the web, extract actionable insights, and design persona-driven strategies to help Learning Ambassadors connect smarter, faster, and more humanely. It’s part research, part strategy—and all about learning how people data drives big decisions.

Overview

The externship analyzed employee reviews and operational context related to retention in fulfillment centers. The work combined web-scraped review data, qualitative coding, and persona development to surface patterns in early-tenure attrition. Deliverables included coded datasets, persona profiles, and recommendations for targeted learning interventions.
