Interview review of 'BITAmin' (Data Science academic club)

Yesterday, I attended the OT of the Data Science academic club 'BITAmin'. (Instagram: @bitamin_official) The club won a favor of me. As the club has a clear aim, I could feel we are on the same wavelength. There, I met many students who had the same, or similar purpose as me. It was almost the first time that I met those people.

Anyway, I'd like to review the interview for participation in the club. Just before having the interview, we needed to have a coding test. But it is not about algorithms. It tested the participants whether they could handle basic Python, pandas, and numpy. Fortunately, the operation team uploaded the past exams, so I could prepare for the test well.

However, the interview was still a big problem. It was a 3:3 style, but the other interviewees have had project experiences. So I told my enthusiasm and passion. And I appealed that although I have no experience, at least I definitely understand the things that I studied. In fact, when I was asked a technical question, I couldn't answer it well. Fortunately, I could make an opportunity to tell my technical capacity. Also, I tried to say that I'm a self-directed person.

Finally, I got accepted. Great!

Paper review: migration? just studying?

 International Student Mobility: Growth and Dispersion by Neeraj Kaushal & Mauro Lanati, 2019. NBER Working Papers Personally, I found the paper difficult to read. This was because the paper didn't use identification strategy such as IV and DiD. Also, the main purpose of this paper was not to identify rigorous causal effects. Rather, the author tried to assess which of two competing models was more plausible. The paper felt unfamiliar to me, as well as theoretically heavy in its derivation of the regression equations. The process to connect the theory to the variable choice was a little bit uncomfortable for me. But, very fun! If I do my own research, I think I can refer the way the paper constructs regression equations. The paper proposes two competitive models. One is 'migration model', representing permanent migration through the tertiary education, and the other one is the 'human capital model', representing  skills acquisition through studying abroad. The p...

Review of 'Introduction to Statistics' (2024 Spring)

이미지
My university set all of the students majoring in economics to take this course. This course deals with not only basic stats knowledge like conditional probability, binomial/discrete/continuous distribution, and Poisson / exponential distribution but also hypothesis tests, like fundamental concepts of the test, t-test, paired t-test, variance estimation using Chi-square distribution, and F-distribution. Unfortunately, the opportunity to conduct real statistical analysis as it was a very large lecture. But the contents were pretty dense. So it was very helpful when I studied linear regression and ANOVA myself.
