    Virtual Career Office Hours


    The ASA Committee on Career Development will hold Virtual Career Office Hours, an On-Demand Career Advice Service for Statisticians and Data Professionals in Business, Industry, Government, and Academia. Our next office hour will be held at 1-2pm EDT / 10-11 am PDT on Tuesday, November 19th. We will have mid-career and advanced-career "experts" on hand to answer your career questions such as:


    • How does the interview process works for an academic faculty position? (Hint: they usually last TWO ENTIRE DAYS!)
    • How do you position yourself for a promotion in a pharmaceutical company?
    • How do you handle interpersonal work conflict?
    • How do you find a mentor/coach/sponsor?
    • What GS level you should apply to for a government job?

    Join us at our Virtual Office Hours to ask these and all your career development and job-seeking questions.


    Holding office hours on the 19th:


    Jessica Kim, Lead Mathematical Statistician, CDER/FDA

    Seonjin Kim, Assistant Professor, Miami University

    Bob Small, Consulting Statistician, RDS Consulting and former Global Head of Biostatistics- Sanofi-Pasteur

    ​This is a phenomenal service, and the Committee on Career Development and their leadership are to be thanked for providing these opportunities for engagement with statisticians who "have been there before" and can offer solid advice.

    Thanks, Matthew and Committee - I miss my engagement with your Committee on Career Development!

    Best,
    David
