BUILDING AN HNG HIRE DATA MODEL AND HIRING STATISTICS DASHBOARD

Table of contents

About

The project involves creating a data model for HNG Hire, implementing it in MySQL, and building a Power BI dashboard to display hiring statistics.

Project Overview

Prepare a data model for HNG Hire, implement it in MySQL, and then build a dashboard that shows hiring statistics. Show available people per stack, those in interviews, those who are hired, etc. Think through all the things that should be tracked for the model. Write some useful filters on the data.

Business Requirements

HNG Hire aims to match talent with opportunities by helping employers find the right candidates for their roles. For this project, we need to track:

  • Candidates: Basic details, technology stacks, status in the hiring process (available, in interview, hired, etc.)
  • Hiring Process: Details about interviews, offers, rejections, etc.
  • Employers: Information about companies that are hiring, the roles they are offering, etc.

Data Model Design

A Multi-Dimensional data model (star schema) was utilized in designing the HNG hire data model, with a hiring fact table and seven dimension tables (candidates, employers, job roles, stack, status, location, date).

Fact Table:
