Teams participating in the competition were tasked with building predictive models of voluntary employee turnover based on de-identified data on more than 150 variables from over 30,000 employees. Over 180 entries (i.e., models) were submitted over the course of the four-month competition, which culminated with the top four teams describing their best performing models at a special session at the 2018 SIOP Conference. As a true testament to our modeling capabilities, HumRRO\u2019s team was one of best, allowing us to present during the session.<\/p>\n<p>To learn more about the competition, download our\u00a0<a
