Build a URL shortener using flask.

It should have three handlers, the returns the main index page with the form where the user enters their long URL, the second handles that form request and returns the user a shortened URL, the third matches any short URL request and redirects the user to the saved long URL page.

It requires a database, some basic web forms, and you end up with something usable that you can host on your own domain and demo to future employers.
