Career Karma Projects Spotlight: May 22nd

In this Spotlight article, we like to take some time to highlight the top projects on Career Karma Projects over the last week. Looking back to last week, we featured a personal finance application for couples, a scraper to learn more about top Fintech companies, among other projects.

We’re continually impressed by the creativity that members of the Career Karma community have shown in their work, and this week was no exception.

Congratulations to everyone who submitted a project to Career Karma this week. Keep up the good work!
