General Information

The great thing about studying statistics is that the analytical skills you acquire while pursing a degree are in high demand among a broad range of companies.  Statistics can be used in any field.  So the best way to go about getting an job using statistics is to first figure out your own skills and interests, then look into companies that interest you.  Just because they don't say "looking for statisticians" doesn't mean they don't want you.  Everyone needs good employees with good analytical skills.
