No, you're looking in the right places if you're finding R related jobs.

Here's the thing: Only you can do the the R jobs, all the web developers can do the webdev stuff.

I'm sure you're awesome. Don't sell your self short and chase webdev jobs that I can pay someone over seas 15k a year to do. Focus on the R stuff, but you're going to have to push a little hard and find a better fit.

When every key fits a lock the key isn't worth much. When you're one of the few keys that fit the lock, you're worth a lot to the right lock owner.



Great advice. The R stuff is definitely an ideal route since I already have some stats and data analysis experience. At this point it's just a matter of getting a bit more familiar with the industry and figuring how to find these types of jobs.
