[quote=Anonymous]Add me to the list of folks skeptical of data scientists getting tons of 200K offers. Seems to me that data scientists have similar skills to stats people but are often more computer science oriented. Also, sometimes they're the ones who prepare and clean the data for the PhDs to analyze. The term means different things. I think someone with a stats PhD can do well in DC, but all the statisticians I know are scratching their heads wondering where these 200K jobs are. That said, I'd also suggest the FDA or Census. They hire tons of stats PhDs including many non-citizens. You might have to be hired as a staff fellow or some other back door method other than USAjobs.[/quote]
