Academically, you can't beat 'em in books smarts on a specific topic, though.
First, the BA in Economics is an absolute and has been since 1992. If one does not have it.. you get screened out in seconds. Second, upon getting the interview they have to prove that they can fix errors in R. We do not get many Phd-level candidates and that is mainly due to low pay. They tell us this when we offer them the job. So the white candidates are opting for higher pay and leaving for LA, SF, Salt Lake City, and surprisingly Minneapolis. The non-whites are accepting the lower pay (about 49K per year gross) and staying in Reno.
