Operation Analytics and Investigating Metric Spike Project
Operation Analytics and Investigating Metric Spike Project
Project Description
This project focuses on analyzing job data and user engagement metrics to provide actionable
insights for operational efficiency and user growth. The analysis is divided into two main case
studies:
Operation Analytics: Analyzing job review data to understand job throughput, language
distribution, and detecting duplicate rows.
Investigating Metric Spike: Analyzing user engagement, growth, retention, and email
interaction metrics to identify trends and areas for improvement.
The project involves creating a database, importing data, writing SQL queries, and interpreting
the results to provide insights for decision-making.
Approach
2. Data Analysis:
Write SQL queries to perform the required analysis for each task.
Validate the results and interpret the findings.
3. Report Preparation:
Summarize the insights and findings in a report.
Include SQL queries, outputs, and visualizations (if applicable).
4. Tech Stack:
MySQL Workbench for database management and query execution.
SQL Queries and Analysis
Objective: Calculate the number of jobs reviewed per hour for each day in November
2020.
SQL Query:
Insights:
This query calculates the number of jobs reviewed per hour for each day in
November 2020.
Helps identify peak hours and days with high job review activity
2. Throughput Analysis
Insights:
The 7-day rolling average smooths out daily fluctuations and provides a clearer
trend of throughput over time.
Preferred over daily metrics for long-term trend analysis and forecasting.
Objective: Calculate the percentage share of each language in the last 30 days.

Operation Analytics: Identified peak job review hours, language preferences, and data
quality issues.
Investigating Metric Spike: Tracked user engagement, growth, retention, and device-
specific trends.
This project demonstrates the use of SQL for data analysis and provides actionable
insights for operational efficiency and user engagement.
Conclusion
This project successfully analyzed job review data and user engagement metrics to
provide actionable insights for operational efficiency and user growth. By leveraging SQL
queries, we were able to:
Operation Analytics:
Identify peak hours and days for job reviews, enabling better resource allocation.
Calculate throughput trends using a 7-day rolling average, which provides a
smoother and more reliable metric for long-term analysis.
Determine the percentage share of languages used in job reviews, helping
prioritize language-specific resources.
Detect duplicate rows to ensure data integrity and accuracy.
The insights gained from this analysis can help leadership make data-driven decisions to
improve operational efficiency, enhance user engagement, and drive growth. By
combining technical SQL skills with analytical thinking, this project demonstrates the
power of data analytics in solving real-world business challenges.
