Being a research associate (RA) at the San Francisco Fed means getting a chance to work with economists doing exceptional research and policy work. We are currently accepting applications and are seeking motivated candidates interested in diving into economic research, honing their analytical and technical skills, and learning more about the Federal Reserve and the people it serves.
Our SF Fed Blog by Zoë Arnaut and Caroline Paulson discusses SF Fed’s Research Associate program and how to apply online.
The Federal Reserve Bank of San Francisco (SF Fed) works to advance the nation’s monetary, financial, and payment systems to build a stronger economy for all Americans. As part of the U.S. central bank, the SF Fed serves the Twelfth Federal Reserve District, which covers the nine western states—Alaska, Arizona, California, Hawai’i, Idaho, Nevada, Oregon, Utah, and Washington—plus American Samoa, Guam, and the Commonwealth of the Northern Mariana Islands. By pursuing our two key goals of maximum employment and price stability—known as the Fed’s dual mandate—we work toward supporting an economy that works for everyone.
