Bridging the gap

Do you like music? When someone asks you - what kind of music do you like, are you always able to name the exact genre? If you are like most listeners (and song makers!) on Spotify, you like a large variety of music. Depending on your day and mood, you sift through playlists to identify a special kind of song! This machine learning menternship challenges you to identify these ‘undefined’ music genres based on song attributes in the Spotify database. You will discover music that exists beyond the conventional genres of pop, rock, and classical!

Meet Our Certified Menterns

It was amazing! I learnt so many things like creating engagement on social media platforms. The 1:1 with mentors were super helpful. I learnt how to create Instagram ads, identify goals & do competitor analysis- so many things.

There was a lot of interactive sessions with Mentors. The Menternship I completed gave me a new perspective to how work has to be done. I truly enjoyed working with real figures & actual industry case studies.

My experience was great as I got a chance to explore subjects like Analytics which are difficult to look for. The Menternship allowed to get subject knowledge and see what goes behind the making and delivering of a product.

My experience was very useful as I learnt so much about Fleet Management & Digital Marketing connected to the real-world scenario. I learnt how to actually work with social media channels like IG & Facebook.
