I picked a path for a Junior Brand Manager. The second path it gave me back had someone being in School under "Business and Economic" for 15 years, which seems kind of weird.

Maybe split out title (e.g. Analyst) from group (e.g. Credit Capital Markets)
The year of work experience seems to be off, despite me inputting the time range. Also for time period, should probably just stick to month/year vs. month/day/year b/c it seems to have picked arbitrary days for start and end dates when it displays it on my linear path

When I put in trader, it only gives me Trader-Market Maker (Vice President), whereas when I put in investment banker-debt capital markets it gave me analyst, associate, VP, MD, etc.
