The ideal candidate will be an undergraduate student with basic statistical skills, including chart/map making, which is required to display collected data and highlight trends and contrasts among housing markets. Candidates should be familiar with database creation. Also, prior work experience with seasonal data and SAS is a plus. Familiarity with JSTOR, Google Scholar and other search tools is important.
