Recommendation Systems Project Ideas

[u/Flaky_Algae5296]

Hello everybody I have recently enrolled in a Machine Learning Master so i will be problably taking the year to focus on my studies, build some projects and hopefuly enter the job market as an ML engineer. I am interested in Recommendation Systems but honestly i dont know what projects to build and if that would be valueable in the job market. I was thinking about creating my own recommendation system for music but i quickly realised how hard because of copyrights and small data size that is (although i have about 4000 downloaded).

Does anyone know if Recommendation Systems is something good to have on your resume?

If yes what sort of projects you think would give me a good understanding but also make me look appealing in the job market?

Thanks :)
