Mar 26, 2014 at 18:11 comment added Scortchi From my experience (hiring & being hired) it doesn't matter all that much which particular languages candidates for statistician posts have learnt, as long as they've practice in statistical programming. As a graduate there may be more distinctive strings you could add to your bow than one more technical competency - volunteering to work in your university's stats clinic, off the top of my head. Of course things vary a lot between industries & countries, so don't take that as gospel; but equally, don't believe everything you hear.

Mar 26, 2014 at 13:06 comment added Nick Cox Part of this is addressed at stats.stackexchange.com/questions/89376/… and indeed elsewhere here. It's difficult to summarize impartially, but note that many people challenge the alleged importance or dominance of SAS, with a mix of reasons varying from disliking it on principle to emphasising the usefulness and widespread use of other software in practice.
