的工作,但是,实在是不知道该到哪里找,现在求助前辈们两点:
1.我的背景精算好找吗?
2.做计量经济的话,要找那些职位呢,用什么title搜索呀?到哪里找呀?需要recruiter吗?

我是应用经济学的
早知道不好找。。但是看你这样说。。还是不免难过 |

不过可能几个月以后才会在有opennings.. |

我要是当年学经济学或者金融,就不用象现在这么愁了 |

l******u 发帖数: 48 | 7 谢谢你的建议,的确是好,但是实在是不想读书了,就想有份工作,然后不求上进的过着小
日子,到现在还在家考试呢,精算已过一门了,马上考第二门,准备考过三门试着找找看...

f*******8 发帖数: 149 | 9 I am an Economics PhD. (Tier 2)
I graduated last year and I am still looking for a job. My current status is
OPT. |
y*****n 发帖数: 5016 | 10 i am a phd in economics and a manager in the field of statistical modeling
in financial industry. the path from a phd in economics to statistical
modeling (or sas programmer jobs) is not easy but achievable if you try hard
enough. the most difficult part is to find (or say, make) a 敲门砖. i am
around DC area. Forward your resume to me if you like. |

If someone in similar situation, please keep in touch: e****[email protected] |

s******r 发帖数: 58 | 17 I am a Business Statistics soon-to-be PhD. I haven't got an onsite interview
for the past 6 months. I don't know when I can land a job. I prefer a
position in finance, but it seems hopeless. |

会熟练使用SAS应该会好些 |

啥样的学校?
比如U Maryland College Park ? |
y*****n 发帖数: 5016 | 20 Dear all,
i have received a lot of messages and resumes since i responded to this
thread. However, i was only able to reply the first couple messages and
resumes. -- my life and work are very busy as well. Moreover, I was required
by my employer to relocate from DC area to Delaware area. The moving
package looks very good. This is a good sign – if the company doesn’t
value me, then they won’t bother to spend so much money to move me.
From all the messages and resumes I received from this thread, |

background are always preferred. Also, if you want to land a job in industry

s***r 发帖数: 1121 | 23 Strongly suggest all these PhD in economics change to either finance or
accounting program. The earlier the better. |

selective too. But I agree that at least they should try.

y*****n 发帖数: 5016 | 26 I kept getting messages from graduating/graduated econ MA or PhD about
searching for their first formal job in the States, even after my last
response on this thread. Not being able to help everyone case by case, I
would like to list some more general comments here.
1. Get some focus in your job search. Don’t say “any job”, “I can do
any job”, “I am willing to do any job”… the fact is no job will “do you
” if you don’t show any specialization on the top of your generalization.

y*****n 发帖数: 5016 | 28 well, i would rather say "postions that econ phd can potentially try to fit"
rather than "postions suitable for econ phd"
sorry for being picky about your words -- because words do speak your mind
more or less.
in general, i will list two big catergories:
1. statistic analysis (including data analysis as the low end and predictive
modeling as the high end), which i am more familiar with.
to fit this type of jobs, you should be good in SAS and econometrics/
statisitics. you will be competing with

y*****n 发帖数: 5016 | 29 很多同学还问我说“我还要不要再读点什么才能更容易找到工作”,“我是不是还要再
修什么课” “我是不是还要再修一个学位”。。。
学校里没有一个专业,没有一个课程是可以直接拿到工作中用的,经济学如此,别的专
业也如此。所以多学一个专业/学位对于找工作来讲多半是隔靴搔痒。话说回来,找工
作的过程中是需要多学些东西的,但是学什么怎么学,很多刚毕业的同学都抓不到门道
。最聪明最高效的办法就是把那些opening positions的description 和requirement拿
过来逐字逐句地研究,弄懂每个术语的意思。可以通过internet查,但如果能找到在该
行业该领域工作的人来给你解释一下那就最好不过了。这个过程会很辛苦,比读书辛苦
,因为很多东西是很难查得到的,这就是我经常说的“恶补”。
从一个招聘人的角度来讲,我并不是很care你学的是什么专业,你有多少学位。。。如
果这样的话就不需要面试了。。。我更关心的是来应聘的新人里哪一个对这项工作的理
解和了解多一点,哪一个更有潜力在最短的时间内上手。。 |
