I thought I had the elements in the right place but any help is appreciated!

Add the table head and table body elements in the appropriate places

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="utf-8">
    <title>HTML Tables</title>
  </head>
  <body>

    <table>
      <thead>
        <tbody>
      <tr>
        <th scope="col">Name</th>
        <th scope="col">Job</th>
      </tr>
      </thead>
      <tr>
        <td>Nick</td>
        <td>Designer</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Andrew</td>
        <td>Developer</td>
      </tr>
      <tr>
        <td>Dave</td>
        <td>Developer</td>
    </tr>
    </tbody>
    </table>

  </body>
</html>

You have an element overlap. Right now the start of the tbody is inside the thead. The tbody should start right after the end tag for thead.
