I really liked how the simulation mirrored real-world data science problems faced in banking. It gave me a clear understanding of how Commonwealth Bank leverages data engineering and data science to drive business decisions, and it allowed me to apply my Python and data analysis skills to a practical project."

I liked how the simulation provided practical experience in analysing social media data, understanding customer sentiment, and designing a database. It helped me understand how businesses like CommBank can use data to identify customer concerns, measure engagement, and make better business decisions.

“The tasks felt like real work, from analysing supermarket data in a spreadsheet to anonymising customer data and proposing a database design. Each task built on the last, and the emails from the team lead gave clear goals. I learned practical things like using formulas, protecting privacy and thinking about how a business could use social media data.”
