    'max_depth': 6,               # Tree depth limit
    'learning_rate': 0.1,         # Step size shrinkage
    'subsample': 0.8,             # Fraction of samples per tree
    'random_state': 42,           # Reproducible results

🔧 Data Processing Pipeline

Feature Engineering Process:

# 1. Data Preprocessing with Pandas
raw_data = pd.read_csv('career_data.csv')
processed_df = raw_data.dropna().reset_index(drop=True)

# 2. StandardScaler Normalization
scaler = StandardScaler()
numerical_features = ['experience_years', 'salary_expectation', 'skill_count']
scaled_features = scaler.fit_transform(processed_df[numerical_features])

# 3. LabelEncoder for Categorical Data
label_encoders = {}
categorical_cols = ['city', 'industry', 'education', 'current_role']
for col in categorical_cols:
    le = LabelEncoder()
    processed_df[f'{col}_encoded'] = le.fit_transform(processed_df[col])
    label_encoders[col] = le

# 4. Feature Vector Creation (67 dimensions total)
feature_vector = np.hstack([
    scaled_features,              # 3 numerical features
    one_hot_encoded_cities,       # 14 city features  
    skill_embeddings,             # 50 skill features
])
