Why is it so hard to get a job with a math phd?

Calculators exist.

Less cheeky answer:
What do you bring to the company? Number crunching is usually done by people who specialized in the kind of math that meets their application. When you specialize to this level in a broad field like math, your best bet is to do research in the field and discover new math. (I'm not denigrating people who choose to do that, btw).
If you wanted a job where someone pays you to crunch numbers all day, you should have gotten an engineering degree.

More quantitative consulting (e.g. risk consulting) or quantitative finance love math PhDs. Whether you find that interesting is something else.

supply and demand and a shitload of state cuckery. Calculate the result by yourself

It's not you're just retarted. You can pivot to A.I research and make bank.

>just get a totally different phd instead

There’s o such thing as an “AI PhD”, anyone who tells you otherwise is trying to cash in on the ai craze. You get a math PhD and then do research on AI

ml/ai is linear algebra with algorithms and data structures aka comp sci. shouldn't be too difficult. if you can get a math phd, then you can do it.

>>16715042 (OP)
It isn't.

>shouldnt be too difficult
and yet you’re having a hard time finding a job with your math phd lol

and thats the reason every math phd is 100% employed right? instead of the abysmal 50% employment rate you autists have

because you're learning about things like discrete hyperbolic geometry that don't directly apply to things
if you study only the maths that applies to real world things then you get a job and a Bachelor of Engineering

>you study “real” math you do engineering

>>16715706
doing a double major with maths
I can tell which one is going to get me a job

>>16715042 (OP)
What the fuck is that image

A bachelor's in math is like dipping your toes. And we're not talking about jobs here. You want to take your cake and eat it too.

Bro literally just go work at a bank they have a hardon for anyone who's good with numbers like engineers.

because you got your phd at western baptist utrecht state agricultral state university. everyone i know who didnt get the job they wanted with their phd just pivoted to industry and makes six figures

>>16715506
Math PhDs are 150% employed because half of us have side gigs too

>The degree which selects for autists with no ambition tends to produce autists with no ambition.
The only reason anyone with a math PhD is unemployed is by choice. The average math PhD student could easily pick up any grad engineering/CS/finance/etc. job and exceed everyone else in the same position.
