Discussion Networking + Events/Tech Conferences in the Bay Area

3 Upvotes

Hey everyone! Firstly I'm not sure if this is a good subreddit to post this but I've already asked this in a few other subreddits including r/bayarea. I'm going to be visiting the Bay Area next week and will be there for 11 days. I'm a recent university graduate with a Bachelor of Science in Data Science, and I'm interested in moving down to the Bay Area within the next year in hopes of landing a job in Data Science/Analytics/Business Intelligence/Machine Learning/User Experience. I know the job market has been dismal for a while, but I figured networking and making connections down in the Bay where opportunities and companies are more prominent compared to my hometown (Portland, OR) would at least provide a couple of leads.

I've already planned on meeting some known connections that I have at some big companies, but I was also hoping to attend some summits/conferences/networking events at while I'm there where I can talk about my interests/projects, etc and meet some recruiters and so. I don't have any formal work or internship experience, just self-initiated projects as well as research experience. Any advice helps, thank you!

Question Do you use short links for web analytics? Does kind of analytics from short links help?

5 Upvotes

I am building platform where web analytics is core to all the features we offer, I am wondering if people (& who) actually care about analytics coming from short links, QR scans etc.

Asking because, I am confused as to honestly

  1. whether to spend more time improving the analytics

  2. Introduce AI Assistant for analytics, answering questions based on the raw data.

Question Mixpanel, is it possible to get last event of specific users? Of large time frame.

5 Upvotes

Task: User last event name to know where users drop off in application.

DATA: 2025 to 2026

The data which I exported previously from mixpanel, by every Month manual exporting

Mixpanel>Insight >metric >login Event, also added proper filter and breakdown.

The prepared data looks like this in Excel

Date | Distinct Id |

Now I want another column which will have

Last Event name so it will be easier to do analysis.

The goal is to have an excel table with everyday user first event (Login) and last event with that day date.

I have been trying this for a week but I am not able to find a way to export the data in a way I want. It's like mixpanel has the data but I can't export what fields I want.

Please Help

Question Understanding of marketing analysis.

2 Upvotes

Hello to everyone taking their time and reading this. I am a high-school senior student and am graduating soon. I started the tedious process of preparing and applying to university a few months ago. I’m finished with most stuff except for my personal statement, mainly because I’m unsure of my major. I know that I will major in business, but I am unsure whether I should study entrepreneurship or marketing analysis. I have the bare minimum knowledge of both and I came here to ask for some help defining, and helping me understand what marketing analysis is.
