Hi everyone,
Help me please to understand what to do - I'm really confused. Sorry for maybe stupid questions - I just don't know where to go to find out this information...
A bit about myself. I live in Canada (Ontario) and now I'm doing my Masters in Stats. I have good mathematical background, I have some programming skills (Stats software, sql, c++, matlab). I don't have any work experience, except Graduate Assistant position in my university ( for 1 year).
I try to understand job market which is opened to me with this background, with statistical degree. I'm not a scientific person and I definitely don't want to do phd and I don't want to have scientific-oriented job. I would prefer to work in finance.
I don't have finance background but maybe I can find an entry-level job where I can get it. Are there such opportunities? What exactly should I looking for in job search? How can I be hired without finance background? I want to plan my career path and I don't know how to start.
Maybe firstly I should find something where I will need my programming skills? In what industry? What positions are the best for me?
Maybe you could tell me some options I have...
I'm totally confused with everything.. Maybe you know some websites which could be helpful for me. It would be great.
But I've been at thousands numbers of websites and I still have a lot of misunderstanding.
Thank you in advance! I hope a lot that somebody could help me here.
