    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.

Data AnalysisPythonStrategyOperations

Overview

The work mapped an Amazon fulfillment-centre workforce and collected employee voice data from public sources, then cleaned and analyzed that text to surface sentiment, themes, and root causes. Analysis included cohort segmentation and a ranked priority list, and concluded with a pilot-ready intervention packaged as a five-slide deck.
