An exciting position on the econ job market this year! Québec City is beautiful, plus you would get great colleagues (like @cmichaudleclerc.bsky.social)! ☺️

I guess now is not a bad time to announce that our department @ecnulaval.bsky.social (in *Canada*) is hiring: econjobmarket.org/positions/11....

If you know some French and work in micro/metrics, seriously consider applying!

Heads-up though. Canadian politics is not exciting.
