The Monash Econ department is delighted to have four amazing economists join us this next year! We look forward to your arrival. @MonashBusiness
Recruiting is hard work, but it was fun meeting so many new economists working on important topics. The future is bright!
What a fantastic recruiting year we had! Monash Economics welcomes Lisa Botbol (Toulouse), Alexander Haas @ahaas_econ (Oxford), Santiago Hermo (Brown), and Kate Huang (Caltech) as our newest members. Great people and great economists all.
Thanks to everyone who joined us in Melb for the Monash HELP Workshop, and to @MonashBusiness for sponsoring the event. I’m coming away inspired, with new knowledge and a full heart!
If you are abroad or in Oz, work in Health/Ed/Labor/Pub, and want to join next time, DM me!

Job market candidates: Please triple-check the differences in time zones. It breaks my heart when a candidate is confused with the time differences and they show up late. First impressions matter a lot!
