Lots of analogue design going on in the UK, especially Edinburgh and Cambridge. From what I understand there is some in Germany / Austria as well. I assume France/Italy are the same. There's at least one big company in each of Belgium, Bulgaria, The Checz republic, Poland. The automotive ones aren't hiring but everyone else should be fine. I found razavi's book very enlightening on the subject.

Also this course by berkley gives you the background behind a graduate level Analog Course

(without the practice that is)
I basically did analog design up until I graduated and had a job lined up but decided to move back home and then couldn't find a firm that hired analog designers there so I moved to software of all things lol.
Yeah, but it's true even for good books. For example, this is one of the best introductory books on analog CMOS. Note the large number of 1-2 star reviews, most of which complain about it being "too hard". That book is as dumbed down as it gets.
This is one of the better beginner books on linear algebra. Again, very basic stuff, and reasonably well done. Again, note the very large number of 1-star reviews complaining about how hard it is.
