[Announcement] Launching Analytics Vidhya glossary & new revamped Job portal

Introduction

As 2016 comes to a close, we are thinking about one and one thing only- how to make Analytics Vidhya more useful for our community members. This year has been nothing short of phenomenal for us. We grew multiple times in traffic, launched different types of hackathons, moved from a single room home office to our new office where we have little more space for our dreams.

This is also just the start – we have only started scratching the surface of our vision. And we promise, 2017 is going to be even bigger – for you and for us. To set the tone for the year to come – we launch Analytics Vidhya Glossary and new revamped Job portal.

 

Analytics Vidhya Glossary

Machine learning can be a tough topic to wrap your head around and remember all the concepts on your tips. As a beginner, it is overwhelming to remember various concepts and recall them every time you come across them! Add statistics, business intelligence and big data to it and you get that drowning feeling in this technical world.

If you have felt this way, don’t worry you are not alone. We have all been there. It is for community members like you, that we have created a glossary of commonly used machine learning and statistics terms. We have explained the terms in the glossary in simple language. The idea is to provide you a handy reference guide which you can refer at any point in time.

Over the next few days, we will continue to add more terms and terminology in this Glossary section. If you want any concept / keyword to be added to the list, all you have to do is post it in the comments section and it will be added.

 

Analytics Vidhya Job Portal

Here is another reason for you to rejoice before the year ends. We have just revamped our job portal completely and we are opening it up for our existing users. If you are a new user, you will need to wait for a few days!

Once you login with your Analytics Vidhya login and password – you should be able to apply to various jobs with your Analytics Vidhya identity. The employers would be able to not only see your past experience and project work – they will also see your participation on Analytics Vidhya portal.

In order to help our partner companies hire the best talent, we are also running an introductory offer on our listing model. They can avail this fabulous discount and kick start their hiring.

Just a word of caution – over the next couple of days, we will be fine tuning the portal. In case you have any problem, feel free to reach out to us directly on [email protected]

Update: We are experiencing problem with the job portal – it will be up again in a few hours. Regret the inconvenience

 

End Notes

We can’t wait to see you use both the additions on the portal – the glossary page and new revamped job portal. We have our eyes on the comments sections and ears on what you say – do let us know your feedback on both the new things on the portal through the comments below! Looking forward to hear from you.

Learn, compete, hack and get hired!
