For most of the positions, a strong academic background in economics, mathematics, statistics, finance, computer science, policy analysis, or a related field with economics coursework is required. For assistant analysts working in the National Security Division (NSD), such a background in a wider array of fields is welcome-in addition to those listed above, biology, chemistry, physics, engineering, genetics, linguistics, any other physical or natural science, or any other quantitative field.
Candidates must also have the following:
- A bachelor's degree by June 2023.
- Strong quantitative skills.
- Attention to detail, strong written and oral communication skills, perseverance, the ability to work both independently and collaboratively, and a desire to work
on issues of current interest to the Congress.
- Experience with Excel and other Microsoft Office products. (Proficiency with at least one statistical software package or programming language-such as Python, MATLAB, Stata, SPSS, R, or SAS-is preferred for some positions.)
This is an entry-level position limited to three years. The position is ideal for those interested in substantive work experience before attending graduate school in economics, public policy, law, or other analytical field.
