| Nov 20, 2013 at 12:56 | comment | added | Learning math | Timothy Chow: thanks for bring up this related question and your answer to it to my attention. Since according to your answer to that question, you had switched out of academics but not Mathematics, and I've that option in my mind too in near future, do you mind if I e-mail you regarding your experience in 1) finding information and application process for such industrial jobs, 2) type/kinds/age-restrictions for such jobs, 3) what kind of work exactly you're supposed to do in these jobs, 4) pay-scale etc.? Thank you! | |

| Nov 18, 2013 at 21:32 | comment | added | Learning math | Prof. Rivin, thanks for the help. I sure will send you an e-mail. | |
| Nov 18, 2013 at 21:24 | comment | added | Igor Rivin | If you email me, we can talk (I know the particular area you talk about quite well), but it is probably not appropriate to discuss this in public. | |

| Nov 18, 2013 at 20:40 | comment | added | Learning math | Okay, thanks, It is indeed my post. The reason I thought I'd try mathoverflow is the presence of more math people, some of whose opinions might be valued. Of course acedemia is more suited, but I'm not sure whether I'll get the math peoples' opinions as much as here. Also, view-per-minute wise, mathoverflow is more active! | |
