  • Prepare ad hoc models that compare a company's costs across locations, before and after incentives, to support active attraction projects.
  • Stay current with federal and state legislative and policy changes and their potential impact on Arizona's competitiveness.
  • Monitor and analyze market trends and economic indicators nationwide to provide actionable insights and recommendations to internal stakeholders.

Qualifications:

  • Bachelor's degree in Economics, Public Policy, Business Administration or a related field.
  • Minimum of two (2) years of experience in economic research, public policy analysis, economic development or a related field.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
