Job Opportunities based on Stata

[Tom Rogers]

Hi all,

I'm not sure if this type of post is fully appropriate for this forum, but I haven't seen anything strictly forbidding it, so I'll continue. I've been able to develop my Stata knowledge over the past few months so that I'm now fairly confident in my Stata proficiency. I was wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of certain jobs/companies that require working knowledge of Stata.

Thanks!

This is certainly not forbidden.

I suggest as ground rules that posts on job opportunities (employer wants people, or people want a job) are fine, but if you want private replies, give a way to contact you or explicitly ask for private messages on this forum. I wouldn't especially recommend flashing phone numbers or email addresses around.

FWIW, I think there are lots of jobs in which knowing (much about) Stata is an advantage, but rather few in which it's a requirement. I've heard that (e.g.) SAS programmer can be a job in itself, but not so much Stata programmer. (I can think of good reasons for this!)

As this is an international list, please don't ask implicitly for jobs anywhere unless you really mean it.

Hi Tom. The "disciplines" page on the Stata website might give you some ideas.
