Overview

Being a Greek citizen that has never visited the US before, I have little sense of the job market situation in Nashville, TN. Thus, I employed my knowledge in data analysis and research to uncover some important insights. These insights were used in informing the content I created.

Steps Taken

1. Initial query to indeed.com:

Since we are only interested in young professionals, I looked for "Full-Time" and "Entry Level" job postings in the location of "Nashville, TN (within 35 miles)".

2. Used the free-trial of an esteemed tool to scrape a few hundreds of the most relevant results

The tool used was "Indeed Job Scraper", offered via apify.com.

The previous I did to understand the types of jobs that are needed the most in the city. I also did it to inform myself about the most active and thriving industries in Nashville. Going through job descriptions also helped me get an idea on the stance of employers against applicants based on the language used, together with the required soft and hard skills mentioned.

For this analysis I used python and a local PostgreSQL database I set up so that it is fully reproducible with free-to-use tools.
