<p>If you are looking at RA type jobs, most are just either science, psychology, or economics related, so if you major does not fall in those fields you are very unlikely to get picked up. </p>
<p>I worked for two professors while at the College, and I was suprised when I had to help recruit my replacements how many people from random subjects tried to get positions they were not qualified to take. </p>
<p>Just an FYI if you are perhaps thinking that RA jobs are easy to come by (a common misconception I suppose).</p>
<p>There ARE more positions than there are students looking, its just a matter of finding someone who can actually do the work well.</p>
