Abstract:

As part of a SPAIG objective to facilitate the use of statisticians in industry, an initiative was kicked off to improve the process that Business/Industry/Government (B/I/G) organizations use to recruit graduate statistics students. This talk will discuss a prototype that resulted from this initiative (i.e., a searchable data-driven system that allows B/I/G organizations to locate new graduates whose qualifications and professional interests best match the intern and permanent career opportunities within their organizations). The future of the prototype will also be discussed.
