About this project

What you'll build: You'll create a simple program that finds job postings from a website and saves them neatly into a spreadsheet. No manual copying-your script does it for you!

Why it's a good starter: This project is beginner-friendly and uses real websites and real data. You'll see your program working step by step, and every stage is explained and achievable for newcomers.

What you'll learn: You'll practice web scraping basics, handling data, and automating simple tasks. By the end, you'll understand how to connect to websites, extract information, and organize it in a useful format.

Milestones

1. Setup & Project Planning

10 marks 5d

Submit a short plan outlining the website you'll scrape, what data you'll collect, and install Python and required libraries (requests, BeautifulSoup, pandas). Share screenshots of your environment setup.

2. Web Scraping Script: Basic Extraction

30 marks 10d

Submit your first script that connects to the job listing site and extracts a small sample of job titles/descriptions. Show your code and a sample output.

3. Saving to Spreadsheet & Extra Features

35 marks 12d

Submit a script that saves collected job info into a spreadsheet (CSV) and adds at least one extra feature, like collecting company names or job links. Include your code and a sample CSV file.

4. Testing & Polishing

15 marks 7d

Submit evidence of testing: screenshots of running your script, fixing errors, and making sure data is correct and readable in the spreadsheet. Provide a clean, commented script.

5. Demo & Short Report

Submit a brief report (1-2 pages) describing what you built, how it works, and what you learned. Include a demo video or screenshots showing your script in action and your final spreadsheet.
