    Shreyas93562 1. If you are interested in quantitative and statistical analysis, then learn SAS. I may also suggest SAP If you are not so mathematically, and statistically oriented, and would rather be doing jobs such as project management, business analyst.

    3. To add on I can suggest you a few companies currently hiring in SAS, those are GE,Genpact, Standar
