The pursuit of data and analytics is helping companies to venture into new fields, transcending the fine lines between different industries. For example, a well-known sports company has ventured into the market of wearable technology, with the release of its fitness tracker, containing sensors, which automatically collects data regarding one's sleep patterns and the number of steps taken in a day. Consumers must first download the fitness tracker app in their laptops or mobile devices. So, indirectly the company is also involved in the software business. Since the objective involves collection and analysis of data, to get customer feedback, the company is also involved in the analytics business. Cable and satellite suppliers are also using analytic tools to get deeper insights into viewing trends and ideas about more profitable programming opportunities. Read more at:

I, Sukanya Acharya received the amazing opportunity to work with Sigmaway Consulting Services Pvt. Ltd., India during my summer vacations as an internship in the company. My project involved application of data mining (more specifically, ASSOCIATION RULE MINING technique) in retail industry. I created a data analysis model in Rapidminer as well as a user manual and training videos for the same. Regular duties during the tenure of the project included improving Search Engine Optimization for Sigmaway based on current topics in Analytics. I also got exposed to various aspects of a corporate role. Thus I got to work with new software which our mentor guided us in each and every step. Overall, I had a great experience interacting with new people, sharing our thoughts along way which finally helped me crack interviews in various companies. Question such as hypothesis of ASSOCIATION RULE MINING, importance of correlation, standard deviation were asked along with the overall process of building the project. Thanks to Sigmaway to enhance my work management capacity. It was a wonderful learning experience for me.
