Hi, I have a PhD in physics and I have decided I do not want to continue down the path of physics. So I am looking at alternatives and I think it would be very interesting to be doing statistics. Unfortunately, I never had any formal classes in stats, but most of my physics research has involved doing statistics-related things, like statistical mechanics and quantum mechanics (which is all about probability distributions). I've also done a fair amount of Monte Carlo simulations.
I was wondering if anyone has any tips on how to sell myself in statistics. Also, what are the best ways to search for jobs in stats? Are they more common in certain geographical areas?
