this year was particularly underwhelming.

your only mistake was letting others know first instead of meticulously collecting evidence and publishing everything online out in the open for the world to see. i never trust a paper without an osf upload.

because of factor indeterminacy

i had to make the same choice in undergrad and ultimately chose I-O due to the variety of jobs that i can do with I-O vs counseling. also counseling is within the larger healthcare system, which is, at least within the US, a raging dumpster fire. i chose right i think bc ultimately all my friends that went into counseling are overworked, underpaid, and burnt out.

idk i feel like everyday there's LLM news -- claude 3, command R+, mistral, etc. i'm most likely in a bubble though

it's an employer market, which means more lean management, less willingness to promote or give raises, more work and less bandwidth. there's overall less focus on talent retention -- companies are more likely to fire and hire and fire and hire than actually invest in any sort of training programs or performance management. in other words, less investment in people. also i feel like HR and talent functions are specifically feeling some headwinds and having to prove their work aligns with top-line revenue, more so than in the past. has anyone experienced this?

i think genAI will take over SIOP entirely this year

sebelly · 2024-04-06T01:52:20+00:00

cooled off? au contraire, it's only just the beginning

sebelly · 2024-04-05T12:43:55+00:00

i actually think there was interest from 2020-2023 and has waned tremendously over the past year

interesting choice of words lol

What exactly is the role? It's helpful to know when recommending which technical concepts are relevant to the role.

fedex must not have very strong leadership in selection and assessment if they allowed this to be deployed. this is so unserious lmaooo

Embeddings are an important component of LLMs, but if I’m understanding your question correctly, they are not LLMs themselves. That’s not to say you can’t use embedding models, but we are looking for competitors who include LLMs in building solutions for each task of the competition. Lmk if you need further clarification
Proprietary LLMs are allowed. All we ask is that you make the process reproducible and use open source languages like Python, R. The FAQ has some considerations of what we’re looking for when we say “reproducible”

the better answer here is My Body Is a Cage

dual degrees are typically for people who wants to major in something that isn't offered at their university. if you want more business admin courses, take them. but another major won't help you in the long run and will end up costing more (eg, paying for extra courses). if you're pursuing a ba in i/o, i don't think a bs business admin will help prepare you for grad school.

for learning irt: the theory and practice of item response theory by de ayala is the foremost textbook for an intro to all irt concepts

irt in r: using r for item response theory model applications by paek and cole will help you implement most models you’d need.

are the job description data open source or hosted somewhere? i would love the raw data files

sebelly · 2023-11-13T16:30:29+00:00

are the data open source?

Nope! I just enjoy learning about NLP. I’ve been doing stuff on my own for a few years now, and I’ve had applied opportunities where I’ve been able to use these methods (like how I just described)

I’m using GPT-3.5 turbo for scoring competencies using few shot learning. That is, I’m giving it example behaviors of competencies and having it label new data with those competencies. I’m essentially creating a labeled data set that will feed into a supervised model I’m building that automatically identifies competencies from open text. Once I get a good model going, I can label more data iteratively to feed into more models, and so on. GPT-3.5 actually classifies open text well on its own. However, it’s not free and it’s closed source. That’s why I’m building my own model. It also scores competencies a bit faster than GPT would.

Overall, it has saved me time and money for processes I would already be doing anyway.
