I know this seems like a very obvious question. But I mean with regards to job searches. Even internships seem to require a variety of skills these days. I'm interested in both web development and just recently have considered data analysis. Should I work on tutorials and personal projects for a single skill or framework at a time? Or make small projects across a wide variety of things so I can put those skills on my resume?

Personal project for sure. Build something you want. If you want to learn a particular skill/framework try to think of a personal project that could use it.

Just following tutorials with no goal in mind is too boring.
