It was a freelance job in addition to my scientific activities. During these 3,5 months, I achieved the following:— Web-scraped information about 1 mln real estate addresses to improve data quality for instant quotes for service price based on gardener work time per household estimation.— Using this data, we developed new instant quote model with fewer features which improved coverage of instant quotes from 50 to 80% of the users with the same instant quote quality.— Developed 'look alike' model for direct mail targets which yielded $20 CPA for customers in the test mailing. But the follow-up mailing with the updated model was much worse.— Developed a linear model for large households to help with manual time cost estimations. It increased conversion by 5% due to fairer price estimate. I quit this job because moved to Imaging Genetics Center research assistant position.
