I'll also include a link to my thesis. That hasn't been an issue so far. 3) A pdf of your diploma should be enough for the application. If you get the job then you probably need to get your diploma evaluated by the Kultusministerkonferenz 3)Thanks! 4) If your diploma is not in german or english (i.e., in latin), you might also want to get a notarized translation. I needed this for some Swiss applications. 5) apparently they require hard copies, correct me if wrong, last few lines of the doc at the link provided 6) If true, that's a good way to limit hires to locals - like GRE scores in the States.

Here (several columns to left) the review date says 1/10/22. May someone (potentially a search committee member) clarify which date is it?

Don't pass on that diversity statement unless you already attach it to the teaching statement. It's essential. 2 again) yea I included bits of my diversity statement in the teaching and research (divided out from normal). Initial job ad doesn't ask for one though, just for commentary in statements/during interview 4) frustrating application. There were only 2 spots for the sample manuscripts 5) I just put in the documents and the SC can sort them out. 2 again again) same - kind of a mess but figure they'll work it out. 6) Searches ongoing and fewer apps than usual.

French is learned quickly 10) If you've ever lived in Montreal, you will have seen many people who promise to learn French quickly. Most don't and many never develop working facility. This is the biggest french-language university in North America, so quite reasonable for them to prioritize language of instruction for their student body.

I agree its a ridiculous salary band. 6) Agreed that it's a very low salary, but I applied anyway. Maybe there's some wiggle room? 7) The location is Dillon, MT. According to some cost of living comparison calculators 54K is more than I make as fourth year assistant professor at a California State University. Before calling something insulting, consider the cost of living. 8) Yes but the starting salary for K-12 there is $35K and better work life balance and many more working years while the PhD students are getting their degree. Its just one reflection of a broken system. Certainly their are too many PhD students and too few positions. Anyway, not the place to rant. x3 9) Good luck to you @6! And thank you @7, @8!! 10) When is the review? 11) It's immediate/ongoing and opened until filled. 11). there is nowhere in the United States where a salary of 44k is acceptable with a PhD. go to salary.com, use their calculators. it's the same baloney cheap institutions in backwater places tell everyone. it's a lie. these are jobs you take as a last resort, then get the heck out asap. dead end places. 44k wasn't a reasonable salary for a PhD 20 years ago. but, it was more common. X3 12) A small detail, but also note that this is posted as a search for Asst/Assoc Prof within that pay range, while I expect every applicant is expecting to be able to negotiate for the upper end of that scale. Crazy position for sure. 13) One more note on the salary to consider: that's the salary for a 10 month position. If you bring in summer salary (common for tenured professors) that brings the salary up to about $65k on the high end (it's a 10 month contract). So, that's also something to consider here. $65k is what research faculty make at at least one Ivy League school that I know (and work at). 14) According to AAUP, lowest 9 mo Asst. Prof salary at an ivy league is Cornell $114,031, Instructor is $63,475, lecturer is $79,445. research scientists at landgrants make more than $65k on 12 mo. The USDA minimum salary for a grant funded post doc is over $60K, see USDA grant manuals. I'm thinking you have been misinformed, or the title research faculty is being used REALLY loosely. 15) AAUP reports averages. Anyone else see the problem with using averages when pay varies across disciplines?	4

Do they have high turnover, or are they just expanding or in the middle of shifting towards having more teaching-focused faculty? Just wondering if anyone has any perspective on this. 2) The School of Environmental Sustainability is expanding (recently became a school from an institute) and is hiring several new faculty as a result of its growth. 3) In addition to growth in faculty due to elevation to School status, there have been a couple of fix-term faculty that have moved recently due to family reasons, not because they were not satisfied with their job. We are replacing those.

Low cost of living, but quality of life is typical of small town Texas. 3) Lead ocelot recovery efforts and develop an extramurally-funded research program focusing on carnivore ecology and management, with emphasis on ecology and conservation of ocelots on East Foundation properties, commensurate with a 75% research appointment. - Sounds like an amazing opportunity for a carnivore ecologist to build a new program there. 4) does anyone know why this search failed last time? 5) Very odd- they brought in 3 finalists from last year search and I attended the talks. All tenured profs (one was quite senior in rank) with tremendous research experience (and publications) in carnivore ecology. Maybe the selected candidate didnt join? I copy # 2- The place is small and may not be a attractive choice for many wishing to raise their family. 6) I don't have any stake in this job, but have spent time doing fieldwork around Kingsville and interacted with several faculty (in another field). There is some cool stuff around the area - great birdwatching, some rare plants, and very interesting habitats. 7) I'm a recent Ph.D. graduate. This postition is within the Caesar Kleberg Wildlife Research Institute, a privately funded institute housed within the university. Very unique situation unlike others. https://www.ckwri.tamuk.edu/ The institutional financial support is amazing. Lots of research dollars funneled through the program. Kingsville isn't for everyone but I thoroughly enjoyed my time there. You can buy a very nice house there for next to nothing

Your partner would not be allowed to collaborate with you and would probably only be offered an "Oberassistant" position. Unless you both applied for the same job and made it on the short list, then things might be different. 3) As a rule of thumb, spousal hire isn't a thing in Switzerland. 4) even though Switzerland is a great place to live and work generally, be warned the Swiss academia is very male-dominated and there is a lot of mysoginy x2.	2

It just says "Please upload all of your application materials as requested per the job description." I'll probably email the search committee tomorrow. 5) Faculty member in dept. here - teaching load is 1 course per semester. Going to check on why documents needed is unclear. 6) We are working to clarify documents needed - HR confused things. It will be the usual research, teaching, diversity statements. 7) @6 same documents question about the dept's microbial biologist ad. 8) @7 - yes, all postings are being updated by HR. 9) Ecology posting updated w/ requested application documents.10) Is the official transcript really required with the application? 11) @10 Official transcripts only required at hiring, not with application materials.12) Thanks! I am pretty sure it used to say transcript under application requirements but it doesn't anymore. 13) @12 It did - you are correct. We updated to make things more clear. 14) @ 2- This position is a 1-1 course load. Service is not an explicit component of contract, but the department does not put a heavy service burded on pre-tenure faculty. 15) No Coverletter required? 16) system only allows 5 applicatoin materials so I merge CV with cover letter 16) Thanks, 15, that's what I ended up doing too. 16) I did NOT submit a cover letter because they did not specifically ask for one (which is weird). I've heard from other search chairs that if they don't ask for something it can't be used in evaluation. 17) Letters requested (12/26) x3. 18) Zoom interview scheduled (1/4).x3 19) Has anybody heard anything more? did the zoom interviews already happened?	21

In that search they were looking for someone with coastal experience in that search...wondering about that kind of focus for this search as well. 2) This is another new position; the department actually did a double-hire for the biological oceanography position last AY. 3) 2 is correct, and this search is very broad. If you think your research fits, it probably does. 4) Selfishly, I was hoping the 'number applied' would stay low (last I saw prior to the holiday was 3). But in any case, good luck to all! 4) any news? references? anything? 5) nothing as of today (12/12/21) for me, but very much hoping to hear something positive soon! 6) Letters requested 12/13/21 x4 7) Anyone know what's next after letter requests? Zoom/phone interviews? 8) Not quite sure what comes next. But I had a letter requested on 12/23. x2 9) Any news since letters were submitted? 10) Haven't heard anything yet (I was one of the 12/23 letter requests)	17

Is it normal that rejections are send first and who ever gets on the long/short list are not notified until later? 5) I was "long-listed" [I guess that is the term?] on the plant curator job last year, but as I recall they sent a "selected for assessment" email at the same time as the first rejection emails. It did take them a few extra days to send me the rejection email after the assessment, though.6) thanks @5! now I'm not sure what to expect. But I see now that at least one more did not hear anything yet, so I'll take that as a good sign. I also applied last year for the botany position, and was not terribly impressed by the process, and this does not seem much better. 7) I actually appreciated the assessment they gave me, it was helpful to see what my weakneses were for a curator position. But other than that the whole thing was pretty mysterious. 8) Glad to hear that something useful came of the process! 9) I spoke to HR dept today, those that did not get a rejection email this week have been shortlisted, and should get an email about the assesment process early in 2022. congrats to those! 10) congrats!	5

No ref letter up front so thats good but that anonymization of all the statements as a requirement for a position that may not be for a ECR? hmmm.... 2) yes, I was interested in this, but seeing the statement on that Twitter thread makes it quite clear that applications from ECRs are not what they are looking for. 3) same here...wondering if it's worth it to contact the SC to enquire more directly about this. 4) EEB faculty member here.

(11/28), 4) no news 11/30 x10, 5) still no news (12/7) x3 6) WE NEED NEWS 7) @6 hahaha. 8) letters requested 12/10... but not sure how to attach them to app since it's already submitted? Anyone figure this out? 9) I emailed admin to ask, will update. Email said they received >125 applications and were requesting letters for the top 25%. Update: admin says they updated Interfolio and applicants should upload their own non-confidential letters of reference. 10). Thanks! Non-confidential though? eek... 11) Just looking at Interfolio, and I think if you request a confidential letter (not directly through the application but just through Interfolio) you can then upload it to the application because it's archived... 12) @11 , looks like you're right. What do people think "as soon as possible" means? Can I give my letter writers a week? 13) 12 again, I asked if a week would be okay, and the coordinator said it would be. Also, she said that they are working up a way to allow for confidential letters to be sent. 14) were letters requested by email, or just on Interfolio? 15) Were applicants notified that their letters were requested or they heard from their letter writers? 16) Received word directly from UMich about letter requests. x2 17) Confused. I didn't get any direct email but now interfolio said "confidential letter of recommendation" 3 required. Anyone got the same thing? 18) also confused. I didn't get any email, but interfolio now says my app is incomplete and under the letter of rec section, "Please send by 12/31. Thank you". x1 19) My guess would be that they changed the setting on Interfolio to allow letters to be submitted and so it changed the requirements for all open apps even for people who they aren't requesting letteres from, but not sure? 20) 17 here - well, I requested my letters to be sent anyways. I will just assume that I'm long-listed for the sake of sanity! Gotta celebrate every possible small win along the way.21) since someone got emails directly from UM about letters and i did not, not sure i should request from my refs anyway. 22) I reached out to the contact listed on the application and they said that long-listed applicants received emails, so it sounds like a mistake that the Interfolio setting was changed for everyone else 23) Now says "If you received notice of moving on to the first round of interviews please send by 12/31. Thank you" on interfolio (12/22) x2. 24) So that means there was another email sent out to a subset of people actually inviting you to interview? I got an email in early Dec. requesting references but nothing about interviewing - not sure if I'm still in the running. x3 25) sounds like they really need to get better with their communications. 26) What's the status of this search? Did people get zoom or in-person interviews yet? 27) no contact since request for letters x5 28) maybe the search got cancelled	17

Just names and contact info for references. I'm not on the SC but I am faculty in the EEB department and can answer any questions that you have about the position. 1) I saw on twitter that there could be two positions at UConn this year. 2) Yes! One more in EEB will be posted soon. There are two positions posted in MCB as well! 3) @EEB faculty member- Removing any "identifiers to your race, ethnicity, and gender" in the diversity statement seems somewhat problematic when those may be strongly connected to your DEI efforts. I understand removing names etc, but does the committee really want all that information removed, especially at the cost of minority candidates not being able to fully express their experiences? x7 4) SC member here responding to @3. You make an important point. Our rationale for blinding is to limit implicit bias, which has a well-documented effect on search outcomes. We acknowledge there is a trade-off between our approach and candidates writing about personal experiences that have shaped their approach to DEI in ways that identify their race, ethnicity or gender. In the DEI statement, applicants are encouraged to discuss the impact of their efforts on specific groups that have been historically excluded; our assessment of these statements will emphasize awareness and actions (past and planned). We recognize that one’s identity will often impact one’s awareness of challenges. The cover letter is unblinded, and could be used to convey personal awareness of challenges and motivation for DEI efforts in ways that identify one’s race, ethnicity, or gender. Hope this helps. 5) Are references allowed in blinded materials that reference to publications on the CV if no name, affiliation, or journals are included ? 6) Faculty member here: I think that's a great idea! You can link numbered citations in your statements to your CV; include a footnote about the numbers in the statements so we know what they mean. 7) Thank you! 8) Review of applicantions has begun. 100+ applicants! 9) Wow 100+! Guess I wont get my hopes too high. Thanks for being so informative SC! x7 10) Any news? 11) Dec-15 none here x5 12) No one has been contacted yet. The long list of ~10 has been selected but has to go through our admin for approval before applicants are notified and we move forward. Virtual interviews for the long list will happen in early January and people on that list will be contacted soon. 13) Received an email asking for recommendation letters today (12/17) x3; was this sent only to long-list candidates? Wondering if I should wait a few more days before bothering my references if the long-list is going to be made official soon. x2 14) I didn't get an email for refs, so you're probably long-listed. 15) Hey 14, this is 13 here.

Because it seemed in the comments like someone had been hired. 2) I applied and they said the job is filled, needs removed. AP) Plenty of people at Carleton are tweeting about this position in the last 24 hours, so it seems open. 2) I was just emailed less than an hour ago "You most likely discovered this post through a 3 party website. Unfortunately that position has been filled. Please keep an eye on our “Employment Opportunities” page for up to date job postings in the future. https://carleton.ca/biology/employment-opportunities/" 4) Strange. I saw the posting because it was shared by a Carleton biology professor. The job ad comes from the University. 2) @4 yeah, super weird. Their employment opprotunity page shows no jobs, the job shows a recent date and the email I got in return makes me wonder where this communication breakdown is occuring. Update: I emailed back the person who told me the job is filled with the link to the post so it can be removed if it was uploaded in error. 5) Looks real to me? https://twitter.com/SJC_fishy/status/1451509003234783236 6) Canadian post-doc here, I have seen several Carleton profs post this to their twitters, I have a hard time believing it to be a mistake. Plus, it says specifically in the add that this is part of a 'multi-year cluster hire', so it's likely not just a 'reapeat' of the search last year. 7) to echo #6 - I was contacted at the end of the previous search and told they were hiring again this year and to watch for an announcement. Likely just recycling bits from the previous ad; 8) I am in the same boat as #6 and #7 - I am also friends of friends with the person who was hired last year... so definitely a new job. 2) I got an email from the department liason apologizing for saying the job isn't hiring..it is. Apparently it was some big admin mix up 9) Anyone hear anything about this one before Christmas? Or are they saving the short-list for after the holidays? 10) No updates here yet 01/04/22 x3 11) Update from Ontario post-doc - schools got shut down this week in Ontario due to Omicron. Provincial gov pretty much blindsided folks with this, too (announcement made ~36 hours prior to school reopening). Lots of restrictions put in place as well. Carleton doing online learning until Jan 31. All this to say is that if the SC committee members have kids in school or are teaching classes they are probably swamped right now. I'm not surprised updates haven't come on this one yet. Good luck to all, let us know if you hear anything (10-01-22).	7

Any inside info? 4) don't know a ton about the Bio Dept at SU (there are a few ecology types in it though), but potentially good collaborations with other departments at SU and at SUNY ESF (which is essentially on the same campus and has cross-listed courses) 5) Heads up - I applied to this department's last posting and the system automatically contacted my letter writers upon submission (with no prior indication that would happen). Not sure if that will happen on this one.6) @4 yes, its definitely a good place to work. The ecology folks here are basically one big collaborative lab and ESF is right next door (there is a collaborative global change ecology group). 7) Can anyone confirm that references were automatically contacted? 8) No need for research statement? 9) it says to submit a combined statement "combined statements of research, teaching interests and strategies and approaches for increasing diversity and inclusion in their research and teaching (upload under “Teaching Philosophy”)" @8 Thanks!! 10) Wow, surprised the number applied is so low for this one. Maybe I have a chance! x2 11) Time since Review Date is now longer than time between posting going up and Review Date. 12) lol 13) References contacted for letters 11/17 x5 14) Looks like only one of my references was contacted (my PhD advisor). Anyone else in similar circumstances? 15) I kind of wonder if this reference request is automated since others said that for previous Syracuse jobs, this happened by default...haven't see any website action from Syracuse and lots of people reporting refs being contacted. @14 I've only heard from one of my refs, so maybe? 16) It's 14 again, I heard from my second ref that they recieved a letter. Maybe it is asynchronous? @15, maybe but they recieved the their emails Nov 17th, so it wasn't upon submission as 5 had suggested might happen. 17) invited for zoom interview 12/2 x1 18) invited for campus interview 12/20	21

Candidates who are completing their PhD or at an early stage of their postdoctoral training are encouraged to apply. 2) Again? They had similar search last year. 3) Can anyone offer insight on the department/college, with respect to how likely they are to hire someone who is in an E&EB subfield and doesn't work on marine systems? It seems like the Biology Department is very micro & human health oriented, and then the Marine & Environmental Sciences department offers for instance a BS in E&EB, but it seems super geared towards marine systems. x1 4) Would working across multiple EEB subfields be considered "cross-disciplinary" here? The 'prompts' are pretty specific, so wondering if it's worth spending the time revising all of my statements. 5) Any insights into the Review Date or timeline? 6) @4 I did not revise my statements - they are pretty close to their promts, but not exactly. I am guessing they will toss me on account of not being early career enough (despite never having had a permanent Asst Prof position) anyway, so wasn't going to invest a huge amount of time in revision 7) Does anyone know if reference letters are requested automatically when you apply? 8) I don't think mine were auto-requested when I submitted (I usually hear right away from one of my recommenders if something unforewarned shows up) 9) Has anyone heard anything? 10) Nothing here 11/16 x7 11) No news 11/22 x2 12) the link says preliminary review begins on Dec 8 13) rec letters request 12/17 - notified by letter writer x2; 14) Any other updates?

Should be permanent, non-tenure. 2) Correct: WWC does not have a tenure system. Instead, it has an extended contract system which is more similar to tenure than it is to "fixed term". At WWC, you are on annual contracts for the first three years, then you get a 3 year contract after a successful 3 year review, followed by 7 year contracts after that. This position is a full-time, junior-level position in that extended contract system.

Faculty pay is above average for small, liberal arts colleges. I've heard great things among recently hired faculty. 4) At least one very negative experience is recent. 5) any idea about starting pay range for folks with substantial teaching experience? Can folks elaborate a bit on negative experiences? 6) Rule 2 - flagging mod 7) @6, not sure what you would count as 'support' without asking someone to share details that would make it obvious who they were. This kind of comment is pretty common and you can find plenty of similar examples for other postings. I would just take it as a recommendation to be sure to ask questions carefully about the department/school. 8) Fair point, my apologies (re #5). Thanks so much.

Does anyone know more details? 2) they have been barely making it for about two decades now 3) Many colleges are in similar situations, many have endowments less than $135M, and many have higher course loads than three per semester. Seems unfair to target this institution. 4) VAP doing exactly what the job ad seeks; always suspicious. 5) Sent my application over email as instructed, and it was rejected as potential spam. Did that three times, changing the title and content of the email. The finally got it to work, and it says the email does not exist. What a waste of my time. 6) @5 Same, got notification email didn't exist. Then sent again and it went through. I'm so confused 7) Virtual interview last week.

As annoying as it is, don't self sabotage. x2 3) As an Asst. Prof looking at moving, there is a subtle cost for every letter I request from a current colleague. So if I was on the fence, that actually would be enough to dissuade me from applying. Agree that as a postdoc, it probably shouldn't stop you ever. 4) Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I agree that asking for letters up front definitely stops me (a postdoc) from applying. Say a job gets 50 applicants and requires 3 letters each, thats 150 letters.. maybe ~10 get phone interviews and 3 get in-person interviews.. so as a hiring committee you've now wasted that time of 120-140ish people in your field. Multiply that by candidates applying for multiple positions.. that's not part of a system that I'm willing to contribute to. 5) Any updates for those that did apply? 6) nope as of 11/7 x2 7) anything as of Nov 23? 8) No 9) Zoom interviews requested (11/23). 10) Rejection email 12/14	4

This university does have a history of religious discrimination which has negatively impacted the quality of this department. 2) SCC here. As stated in the ad, ND is EOE and really means that. Both in the dept and across the board, we very much value all forms of diversity, including with respect to religion (or lack thereof). I would be happy to follow up with any prospective candidates who would like to discuss this further. 3) did the last several searches fail? the position seems to have been listed for multiple years in a row (x2). 4) SCC: We had a vector bio search 2 years ago. It went well, but the pandemic hit just as we were trying to recruit top candidates. They didn't have to move and decided not to, which IMO is understandable given what was going on. We hope conditions this year will allow us to have a more normal and successful recruitment. Last year, there was a very broad search in "disease biology," and non vector bio candidates rose to the top. TLDR is that we are enthusiastic to hire in the area of vector biology and you should apply if the position appeals. 5) What happened to the two searches from last year? x2 6) They were much broader searches than vector bio (disease bio, eco & evo) and non vector bio candidates were offered. 5) But did they hire anyone? 8) Not 100% done, but we're hoping they will reach positive and final conclusion soon. 9) $10K question. If someone applied a couple years ago and didn't get selected is it even worth applying? x2 10) SCC: Yes, definitely worth applying! The pool changes and applications change, so there's no reason someone who wasn't successful before might not be this time. 11) hmmm 12) to 9, the definition of insanity I suppose 13) Any updates???? 14) Letters requested 11/4 x2 15) on-campus interview scheduled

However, we are in the second year of a new strategic plan that involves significant hiring every year for the next several years. Last year the focus was biological rhythms this year it is evolution. 7) Thanks for the info 6.

Could you advice on how long it should be and whether it is simply a merged document made up of the two separate statements we have for other jobs or one new integrated document? Thanks 10) this is 6 again I am the chair of the SC interfolio will allow you to upload 1-2 documents under the researcha and teaching statement section. I would reccomend using a format that you already have available and that you believe represents you well. My guess is most people will upload a 3 page research and 2 page teaching statement since that is one of the more common formats out there. 11) Are letters due up front? 12) Its an interfolio application and you have to add the letters to the application if I remember correctly 13) It's only allowing 1 document under "other". 14) Not sure what is going wrong for you as lots have uploaded mutliple you can email directly to search chair or combine the two docs together whatever is easier for you. 15) Any word? 16) Haven't heard anything yet.

It was such a broad search, curious what they were looking for in terms of fit. 10) @9 evolutionary ecology using aquatic animals 11) @9 molecular ecology and evolution, marine and estuarine orgs (and others, but not specifically freshwater) 12) @9 biodiversity/ecology aquatic organisms 13) 9 again, thanks! 14) Invited for zoom interview on 10/28 X2 15) Weird that interviews invites are over 2 weeks apart x2 16) the position is still open, they may have not found enough good candidates on the first round of zoom interview. 17) there are 2 positions open, so maybe they're doing it in rounds? 18) To get to the point of an interview is a big accomplishment and I'm sure all the candidates are 'good enough', it's more a question of fit. @16 lets keep this board with positive, non-judgemental vibes. 19) @16 here. Sorry, I meant that they may not have found the right number of candidates that are enough "good fit" to invite on campus. 20) invited for campus interview (11/4)+3 21) are these interviews also for the integrative position? 22) Mine is not, it's for the aquatic ecology/evolution. I think the searches are distinct (though 2 positions each) 23) Offer accepted x2	12

Is this primarily an initiative to increase diversity in the Department? 2) Anyone know if they'd consider a marine person here? 3) ref letters requested 10/18 - unsure if this is for all submitted apps or not? It is not even the app close date (I am a marine person) 4)@3, it says in the app instructions that letters will be requested automatically. 5) Anyone else have issues with creating a password for the application portal? Might be just me, but it automatically refills my password with a bunch of *** in both Chrome and Safari. 6) Hmmm... didn't have any trouble submitting here.; 6) odd no page limits or am I missing something?. 7) Most jobs don't have specified page limits for documents (though this year I have seen a few) 8) It appears my letters were not auto-requested. I submitted on 10/21. 9) 8 again, letters were delayed but auto-requested X2 9) I know it said that letters would be requested the next business day, but did you get notified that letters were requested, or find out from your letter writers? 10) @9 from letter writers 11) I submitted my application on 10/24 and my letter writers just received their auto-request (11/5/21), so it seems the system is pretty delayed. 12) Any updates? 13) None 11/14 x4 14) Got some website hits from Tacoma, but I'm in the Seattle area so it could be anyone. 15) Same here, but I'm not in Seattle. Are website hits actually indicative of interest or moreso just curiousity/due diligence? 16) Could literally be anything! 17) Was invited for a zoom interview that took place last week (today is 11/22) 18) Congrats #17, that's fast turnaround. Good luck! 19) Well, they just reposted the job at on 11/30, so it looks like I wasn't impressive enough! womp womp =) 20) I don't even think my references were contacted for this one even though they should have been automatically...that's too bad to have a fast interview @19 and then see the job reposted 21) Anybody know if the job repost is accurate or just automatically generated on job boards? 22) The UPS site has the ad up but it still says review will begin Oct 25, so might be a mistake? 23) emailed the department and the repost is an error. The search is still active and all original applications are still in consideration 24)Thanks #23! so they haven't whittled down the list yet? 25) not clear. given at least one interview has happened, you'd expect so. But it's also still a fast timeline 26) Invited for on campus interview ( I also had a zoom interview in the same week as #17). 27) Back from my on-campus interview last week, had inital zoom interview on 11/17. 28) Any news here? 29) Verbal offer has been made 12/29 30) I had emailed the dept over a month ago to ask if the ad repost meant they were soliciting new apps, finally heard back on Fri (1/7) that the search is still ongoing and they would read new apps; what is going on here?? @29, did you turn them down?	17

A bad paragraph will probably get you some points. No sentence at all will get you 0 points. 2) do they hire anyone in the last cycle? @2 yes and check the FPI spreadsheet announcement section. The person announced on twitter 3) Our most recent hires are Laurel Yohe, Alex Dornberg, and Rick White. We also have myself, Liz Cooper, and Way Sung. We are pretty proud of our growing evo group. This hiring committee is likely to be most enthusiastic about computational skills compared with evo itself. But a lot of folks on this board are likely to be a good fit. For example, if you do eco and work on analysis of GIS data, you should also apply, emphasizing that aspect of your work. I'll comment on this board to the extent that I'm allowed to. -RLRogers @ Rogers, considering its a bioinformatics and genetics dept, how much genetics needs to be within the framework of our research? RLR) Many/most of us do some kind of genetics. But it's far more important to have data analytics of some kind and emphasize coding expertise. If you only ever work with phenotype data and have Big Data, that will probably fit just fine. If you do field work and incorporate geographic data, that is great too. Show off your code and data crunching, no matter what eco-evo goals you may have. RLR) Get the apps in before next week if you can! (posted 11/11 so before 11/15) 4) Zoom interviews scheduled.	1

I emailed the search chairs but they never responded 3) @2 on the job search page there is a link to download the form 4) this is ostensibly a DEI position that solicits a "standalone" diversity statement--but the application form has nowhere to upload the diversity statement. 5) 11-3: I emailed the contact email in the job ad with my DEI statement as an attachment and explained the lack of space for it on the application portal, but I imagine many people won't bother to do that, so who knows what the search committee ultimately does about this. 6) I found the lack of portal upload space perplexing too - ended up merging my teaching and DEI docs so they just both went in under teaching (although there's a new heading for my DEI doc) 7) upload portals seem to be fixed - there is now a place to put the DEI statement 8) Any word? 9) Nothing here 11/30 x4 10) I heard that they are in the process of looking at all the apps and that is just a LOT of AMAZING applications and they were approaching the review differently than other processes (I interviewed for another position there and heard this from the dean). 11) Received email (Dec 13) saying "the search committee is planning to schedule phone/zoom interviews around the second week of January. If you are among finalists, you will receive an email from us to schedule the zoom meeting." x5 12) Didn't get that email... x5 13) Got an email for a Zoom interview x2	9

Moreover, we encourage applications from individuals who will contribute to our efforts to build a diverse and inclusive department. 2) want SSN for application, ugh @2 not true. I applied last week and didnt ask for one 3) when i signed up via linkedin to apply 10/10, i was asked for an SSN x2 4) Looks like you can make a temporary one for submitting 5) This looks a lot like the ad from 2 years ago. Anyone know if that search was cancelled/postponed due to COVID and this is just a formality before offering their top candates from last time? Or are these actually new positions? 6) These are new positions 7) SC member here, yes new positions! 8) Has anyone heard anything? 9) no news 10/26 x9 10) if 26 people just on this board applied, seems like it's going to be awhile... 10) no news 15 Nov x17 11) no news 22 Nov x10 12) no news 30 Nov x4 13) is it a bad sign that the positions aren't posted anymore? (see link) @13 no thats prety normal. It stops people from submitting apps that go nowhere 14) Still no news (8 Dec) x6 15) there's that rejection email (300 apps oof) X9 16) Did anyone else not receive a rejection email? I also did not receive the rejection email x8 17) Twitter post from someone in the department says they sent out rejections to people who didn't make the short list. Doesn't say how many people are on short list. 18) phone call on Friday 10/10 inviting me for on campus interview in Jan/Feb x2 19) @18 or others, is that right? Timing seems strange since they only just requested letters from short list. 20) I think #18 meant 12/10 Friday but regardless plenty of place ask for letters after/during/before interview. Every one of my interview so far the letters needed to be sent after I was done screener. Woops I saw 18 is doing onsite interview, then yeah I guess theres no screening interview then? 19) Yeah that's why I wondered if this was posted in the wrong row or something. I had letters just requested and not even time to submit them yet so would be strange and a huge waste of time if they already moved to campus invites. 21) I haven't received a rejection or letter request, anyone else in this boat? (x2) 22) I am @18, apologies, phone call about on campus interview was Dec 10, letter writer notified me just this morning (Dec 13) about the letter request. Agreed that this all seems strange so far... 23) my guess is 2 things then. 1. is people who got letter request will eventually get the campus invite cuz scheduling takes forever, OR 2. they are requesting letter for everyone on the long list even though people on the bottom of that list will never have a realistic chance of onsite interview. Dont underestimate the inefficiency of this process. Hope it is case 1 for you all. 19) Got it, thanks @18. I definitely got letter requests but no campus invite (at least so far). Guessing that means I am on some kind of list but not a finalist. 20) rejection email 12/20 x4 21) Also, they got 300 applicants according to the rejection email! 22) Super annoyed at their process. I finally got a rejection, but they requested letters from short list then made invites/rejections before even receiving the letters. My writers were working on letters the week of holidays that were pointless. Even worse than asking letters for everyone up front!	35

Seems like it with teaching on campus. 2) Is Gainesville a nice place to live? North FL makes me nervous. 3) SC member: The position is located on the main campus in Gainesville. Gainesville is a great place to live. Lot’s of outdoor recreation nearby (hiking, biking, kayaking, close to gulf and beaches). The summers are hot and humid, but the winters are very pleasant. North Florida is very conservative, but Gainesville like most college towns is progressive. Not quite like Athens or Madison, but a pretty hip town. 3 again) Also I'll add that the department has a lot of asst profs (10+ on the main campus, more at RECs). Its a great department with a lot of menotring and support. 4) Gainesville is not bad for a college town, about 2+ hours to bigger cities like Jacksonville/Orlando/Tampa. The entomology department is a bit isolated though from the other parts of campus, being on the opposite side (20 min bus ride). That said, it is quieter and easier to get parking compared to where biology is, where it is just chaos. 5) any updates? 10/27 6) None here 10/30 x2 7) This may take a while longer - the annual entomology is taking place this week 8) Zoom invitation 11/08 9) Onsite interview invitation 12/01	2

Every university calculates workload separately so it is very hard to know exactly what a 2/2 or 3/3 load entails. 6) It seems like they are on the quarter system, so could be teaching 2 courses 3/4 quarters each years (so literature six course) but I agree it is unclear 7) any news? 8) none here 12/3 x12 9) Rejection letter 12/13 x10 10) Rejection letter reads: "On behalf of the search committee representing the Faculty of the School of Interdisciplinary Arts and Sciences at the University of Washington Tacoma, I would like to express my appreciation for your interest in our Ecology position. I regret to inform you that we are moving forward with the consideration of other applicants and you are no longer being considered for this position. Please understand that this decision was not a reflection of you having a poor record; rather, it was the product of having such a large, highly qualified pool and identifying candidates that we felt best fit the position and our needs here at UWT. Again, thank you for your interest in joining our Faculty and your patience while we completed our review. I am sorry that I do not have better news for you, but please accept our best wishes for success in your academic career." Super professional on their part. X2 11) I didn't receive a rejection letter but also didn't get any sort of interview offer, this could be good or bad I guess x6 12) Has anyone been contacted for an interview? 13) My bet is they got several hundred applications for this position and have narrowed down to a long, short-list of about 20-30 apps. x2 14) 12/7 Received an email explaining that the job is strictly at the assistant level and ther is no room for negotiations regarding level or tenure acceleration and if that it is OK. Anyone else? 15) Nope - haven't received anything @14 - is it because you are not at the asst level perhaps? @14) I also received the question about rank and tenure, but no rejection as of yet 15) OK weird. I haven't heard anything (as of 12/15)--so does that mean I'm potentially on the long list? Very unusual to send out rejections before contacting advancing candidates. @15) not that unusual, early rejection just means they have a lot of what they consider good candadates and rejected those that didn't meet their minimum requirements/desire. They would probably rather cancel and reopen the search than hire/settle for those they rejected early. 16) Any updates for next steps? 17) Sounds like they received a bunch of apps and it's already Dec 20, probably crickets on this one until January. 17) Zoom interview for 25 min. chat sent out on 12/22 for 1/13 - 1/18 x3	29

Or is it really just a CV and cover letter? No research statement? 4) Also, will the review of applicants begin "once a suitable candidate pool is identified" or on 11/7? 5) @4: review can start before closing date... it just reduces lag time between close & shortlist notifications (but all that are in on time should still be considered). @3 towards the end of the submission portal you can upload additional materials including the CV and cover letter. I just uploaded other things at that point. 7) But it never actually asks you for any other documents specifically? Just gives you a chance to upload whatever you think is right? Weird 8) @3, I think that means they will not be sponsoring working visas so you must already have a legal document (visa, OPT, or alike) that allows you to work in the US. 9) @8, visas are institution specific so if you are not already at Drexel, you would need a new one. This does effectively mean green card/citizen only. OPT in theory is possible but many candidates would be past that already, and they would still need to do something soon to continue your status. 9) "A minimum of 2 years of postdoctoral experience" – think that is by the time of appointment, or at time of application? 10) @9, I would say by the time of appointment. 11) Has anyone heard back? They are waiting for a "suitable candidate pool" and I'm not sure when that might be. 12) Deadline is 7 Nov 13) Has anyone heard anything 22 Nov? 14) No. [x2] But a contact in the Department told me they were hoping to come up with long-list after the Holidays. There will be a round of zoom interviews before on-campus invites. 15) Invited for zoom interview 11/30/21 [x2]. My field is Evolutionary/Developmental Genomics. 16) No word 11/30/21 x6 17) Number 15 here. Done zoom interview last week and now waiting to hear.

But there are folks that are open minded there and from what I've heard the pay is good including with annual raises each year. 3) that'll be a no from me but thanks for the info #2! 4) Next to that question, they have a footnote stating "In compliance with federal law, including provisions of Title IX of the Education Amendments of 1972, Titles VI and VII of the Civil Rights Act of 1964, the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, and Sections 504 of the Rehabilitation Act of 1973/the American with Disabilities Act, Belmont University does not discriminate on the basis of race, sex, color, national or ethnic origin, age, disability, military service, or sexual orientation in its administration of education policies, programs or activities; its admissions policies; or employment." 5) A friend never graduated from Belmont because he did not complete the required number of chapel hours. Otherwise he would have had a degree from their (excellent) music performance department. He had all the classes completed. 6) Application process requests a statement of your christian faith as it relates to their mission statement and values. Im sure you will be asked about how you approach science topics (such as evolution) at a christian school. I would say identifying as a christian is probably important for this institution. 7) About a decade ago, when I lived in Nashville, this school was known for being more liberal than other Christian schools in the area. For whatever that is worth. 8) When Belmont acquired a local art school, all non-christian faculty were fired https://news.artnet.com/art-world/chaos-unfolds-as-students-and-faculty-at-nashville-arts-school-learn-of-merger-with-christian-university-1767246. 9) Phone interview and campus interview requested.	1

Great PUI with excellent support for students and faculty -- nice facilities. Great dept. x2 4) Does aquatic mean just freshwater in this case? I've seen it mean lakes and streams or freshwater/marine 5) the ad seems broad. They are probably looking for either freshwater or marine. 6) Zoom interview request 10/19. Request for references ASAP in same email. Anyone gather how references are to be submitted? 7) Just got the Zoom interview/letter request too, and had the same question as #6 and asked about it - references can be submitted directly to the administrative assistant who contacted you about the interview. 8) anyone who got zoom interview/rec requests willing to share general research foci? Just interested in how truly 'aquatic' the scope ended up being x2 9) @8, I wasn't one who got a zoom interview but heard that a colleague of a colleague (lol) got one and they study stream invert communities. 10) @8 #6 here. Freshwater. 11) Got Zoom interview too, focus clearly freshwater. Very short turnaround for references though, certainly felt bad asking for letters within a week--I'd be annoyed at a student who gave me that little notice! 12) Got zoom interview too. Focus: freshwater & marine. Good luck everyone! 13) Any idea when on-campus interview invites are going out? (if not already) 14) I have not heard anything since my interview. x4 15) Request for campus interview 11/2 16) Congrats @15, and thanks for sharing! x3 17) Congratulations @15. Do we think they are in-person interviewing 1 person? Sending out requests one by one trying to schedule? Something else? 18) I didn't get an on-campus interview after the Zoom one, but when I asked about the timeline, they said they're hoping to wrap up by Thanksgiving. So I'm guessing any in-person invites have already gone out, unfortunately @17. x2 19) Thanks 18. I also did not get an interview invite following my zoom. Bummer. I'm guessing they zoom interviewed a few people who aren't on here and those advanced with @15. In any case, looks like a good job at a nice place! 20) An offer is out for this job 11/23.

It's been almost a month and nothing here. 9) Nothing as of 11/22... It is frustrating because they said in the Zoom interview that "you'll hear in about two weeks either way." 10) Invite for on campus interview 11/24	5

Is this because I'm outside North America, or....? Anyone else getting this? 5) I applied several days ago from Ireland and no issues. 6) I believe questions are to be directed to HR (hrs@utep.edu), position was posted 1Sep, teaching load is generally 1:1 or 2:1, unsure about link issue but perhaps contact HR? (source: in dept., not on search committee) 7) @4 I am in Germany and had to VPN to the US to access the ad site 8) has anyone who applied to this job heard anything? x10 9} Nothing: Its still listed as "open" on their website and i heard nothing about letters of reference being requested 10) Zoom interview invitation received 10/20 x8 11) zoom interview on 10/26 x3 12) just to be clear, @11 are referring to the same first-phase 30-min zoom interviews that already took place, the same ones that @10 referred to, right? 13) not @11 but yes timeline-wise 14) On campus interview invitation recieved on 11/3 x 3 15) interview invitation not recieved x5 16) virtual interview invitation received on 11/5 17) @ 16 - were you also invited for on campus interview? 18) @16 here - yes, virtual "on campus" interview 19)@16 were you one of the 3+ folks invited for on-campus interviews AND choose to do it virtually (or there 4+ candidates, 3+ traveling there and virtual "on campus" interviews also going on? 20) How are folks feeling about doing the "on-campus" interview regarding COVID restrictions? I am worried about it but still going to campus. I don't know what the "masking" culture will be.. 21) I can't speak for this institution, but it's basically the honor system at state institutions 22) @16 answering @19. I was directly invited for a virtual "on campus" interview. I was not asked to decide. I am in Europe, I guess the other 3 people are in the US. 22) Good luck all and stay safe. 23) Any news? What did you think of the place? 12/3 24) I finished interview on 12/3, so I would not expect any news anytime soon. 25) Any more pending interviews? 26) I think they are done interviewing as of last Friday. Out of curiousity, did you all send an itemized budget for your prospective startup? 27) I sent itemized budget as requested, yes. 28) Not knowing what the anticipated startup was, I was a bit apprehensive, not knowing whether I asked for too much or I lost the opportunity to ask for some more. 29) @28 - if offered the position, I am sure you can negotiate a little more if needed. 30) @23: I really like the place and it is a really good fit for my research. Seems like a promising up and coming department. What did you all think? 31) if you can get past being politically part of Texas and subject to its leadership, maybe 32) My issues are definitely related to Texas or the Texas uni system (e.g. the fact that grad students with TA need to pay their tuition) 33) wow, I didn't catch that grad students had to pay their tuition, that's probably a real bottleneck to recruitment 34) especially if you want to recruit Masters students, because they get paid much less than PhD students for the same TAing 34) of course, startup and grants can pay tuition, but once those are gone, it'll be tough to recruit and hopefully the area has enough in it to keep you happy. 35) I have received an offer and am likely to take it assuming the negotiations go rather well. I wish you all the best of luck with finding your dream job! 24) Did you close the deal?	14

Hope those search committee members got a course release this semester. 5) They wont read letters for all applicants. Will skim CV and research statement and make a cut, and then read those in depth 6) Why bother requesting letters up front then? Seems like a waste of everyone's time. 7) To not have to wait and request once they have long list? They can just proceed. Or more cynical to discourage people who find letters up front a barrier 8) They may not mean to do that but they totally do 9) Did anyone else get a direct automated email from one of the professors inviting them to apply? I am not sure where/how they got my contact information..the email came from biochair@stanford.edu x10 10)@9 I thought maybe the Diversity EEB list since I am on that? x10 11)They ask if you're a US citizen or resident... I always feel like that's a bad sign for those of us foreigners. 12) The search committee are personally emailing people to apply for this position as well as an open call. Just to give you an idea of the level they're looking at, I know of at least two tenured Professors at R1 universities in the states and another international Professor who've been "invited" to apply for this (an Asst Prof position!) 13) I'd think they're asking the tenured profs to apply for a tenured position (which they'll request an 'upgrade' for after the fact...). I can't imagine anyone leaving a secure position to gamble their lives away on Stanford. 14) does anyone have clear ideas if they want a combined research and teaching statement (as suggested in the job ad, item 1), or they want 2 separate ones (as listed in the submission system)? 15) They are hiring at a pre-tenure level. For people in existing tenured jobs, they'd have to give up tenure. The time to tenure would be negotiated after an offer is made. 16) @14 They want two separate statements but combined they cannot exceed 3 pages. So likely 2 page research and 1 page teaching, I confirmed with admin in charge of call 17) you totally saved me @16 - good that they allow updates after submission... 18) Does the 3 pages research + teaching INCLUDE references?? 19) @18 I would think no. I have 3 pages total plus one with references 20) can letters still be uploaded after you press apply? 21) The new deadline on the academic jobs website is November 15. Just to let everyone know 22) Weird, did they not get the 800 apps they expected yet? :) 23) It now says Nov 8, weird 24) Now says Nov 12! 25) nobody wants to go work at Stanford! 26) Not sure that's true or you wouldn't have applied @25. 26) might need a larger pool for more applicants, they are starting a new school with four divisions. Would not be surprised if they make multiple hires. 27) Any idea what the timeline for this might be? Like, when will they send out invitations for interviews? 28) The search just closed so probably not before winter break... 29) Anybody has any insights on the timeline? 30) Invited for on campus interview (12/2) x2 31) congrats @30! Would you mind sharing what type of ecology research you do? 32) original x1 from 30 here - evolutionary ecology/community ecology 33) x3 from 30 - global change/movement ecology 34) how many people got an on-campus invite? 35) @33 did you get your invite the same date? or they are inviting/scheduling on a rolling basis? 36) Formal rejection x13 37) Six candidates have been invited for on campus interviews and the dates are set, list has been shared with the department. 5/6 candidates are postdocs.	22

It's more common to ask for this in humanities and social science searches because it might be harder to obtain texts. 3) Any idea of teaching requirements in this dept? 3) I interviewed for a job in this department a few years ago and I believe it was a 2-2... It seemed like a cool department but keep in mind that they did not (at the time at least) have lab space or significant start-up funds available 4) If that worries you note the other searches in Evo and Mol Bio that you could apply to. 5) did the due date for this position change? I had in my to do list 10/20 and that's what it says at the bottom of the ad, but the top of the ad and application site says 11/20. Can someone confirm the deadline? 6) Deadline is 11/20! Still time to apply. Official deadline is 11/20 AP) They should fix their Interfolio info that says "Please send your completed application by October 20th 2021"! 7) Letters required up front 8) any news on this? (11/28) 9) its only been 8 days lol plus the thanksgiving break. My advisor is chairing this search and is still on break so I don't think review has even started yet. 10) thanks! @9 11) @9 Can I ask who the SC is? 12) any news? 12/10 13) none here 12/10 x5 14) received an email 12/21 saying I'll be notified in January as to the status of my application, search chair is Prof. Sonali McDermid x2. 15) @14, have you contacted them before? 16) 14 here, no I haven't contacted them before x2 17) any news 1/10? 18) no news 1/11 X2 19) I have an campus intervew scheduled in February (was contacted on the 23rd of December to arrange). 20) @19 did you apply for the animal welfare position or the urban ecology position?	5

"Broad areas of Computational Biology, Systems Biology, Quantitative Biology, and/or Data Science" SC chair = Jon Boyle https://twitter.com/BoyleLab/status/1428833678554247175 2) Needs 3 letters upfront 3) This seems like a great position and department, but I am no longer applying anywhere that requires letters upfront: it's an emotional burden on myself and a labor burden on my references that should not be imposed before the HC even opens the applications.x2 4) Was it an oversight that they didn't ask for a teaching statement? Is there no teaching required for the position? 5) SC member here - confirming that no teaching statement is needed for the application, teaching assignments in our department are very low pre-tenure, typically one upper division undergrad class per year. Also I apologize about the rec letter requirements, this is not something we had control over - I've raised the issue so it can be discussed for future searches 6) Hi SC, for some reason my letter writers got confused about email vs waiting for a submission link to show up. Will you be able to reach out for missing letters for us? 7) SC here - I would encourage you to email Jon Boyle, the search chair, directly to coordinate with him about getting the letters in - boylej@pitt.edu 6) Problem is, if they are missing we likely don't have a clue! 8) Has anyone heard anything (27 Oct)? 9) Nothing here as of 10/27 x7 8) No news 8 Nov x3 10) on campus invite (no zoom screening) 11/11 11) @10 congrats, which field? 12) rejection received x3	14

Should be the norm, not a rare exception. x7. 6) invited for phone interview 10/11 x5. Do we know what the teaching load is here? 7) never saw it anywhere but this is an R2 school, so it's probably somewhat high, but not as high as a SLAC. Just guessing though. 9) well, I was hoping for this one. but their loss! 😁. please let us know how it turns out!!! 10) Email received that I did not make the initial cut, but if they wind up unhappy with current selection that they will circle back to my app; they said the chances of this are very low (as expected) 10/14 x3 .11) invite for campus interview this afternoon (29 oct). 12) @11 congrats! still waiting to hear anything after phone interview.

We truly are interested in applicants from all areas of ecology and evolutionary biology. Search committee has members with expertise in both ecology and evolution. 2) Thanks, search committee!! We appreciate any info you can share. 3) is this appointment for only one year? 4) Search committee member again... This is a tenure-track position, and we hope the successful applicant will occupy the position for many years. 5) Is there a length guideline for the teaching statement? 6) Length info for teaching/diversity statements is available in the application system: "teaching and diversity statements recommended to be 1-2 pages each." 7) Are recommentation letters required upfront? 8) They make it sound like only contact info is required. 9) Application confirmation email says virtual interview in Nov. 9) Search committee member here. Only contact info for references required at the application stage. And we will likely have virtual interviews late October/early November, and a final round of interviews in November. 10) Dang! They are getting a lot of applications. x5 11) Anyone know what the teaching load will be and/or what is typical in dept? Also, is start date flexible at all? 12) Typical teaching load is 2 course equivalents per year. Large courses count a bit more than small courses. I'm sure start date is somewhat flexible. 13) Letters are being asked. 14) @13, did the SC notify you or did you hear from a reference? 15) I heard from one of my references. 16) I also heard from my references. x15. 17) When one of my refs submitted their letter I was cc'ed on a reply from the department chair confirming they had received the letter. x4 (10/12) 18) Were letters requested for everyone or was this a long-listing? 19) Letters not requested here. x11 20) I think they must have sent out the requests a bit asynchronously bc my letter writers were not contacted yesterday when people first mentioned something here on the board but they were contacted this morning 21) Any updates on this one? 22) I believe last thursday was deadline for sending letters in so hang tight! 23) 10/25 contacted for zoom interview x7 24) ouch X15 25) Seems that the goal is on-campus interview in November... what about covid? :/ 26) Those who got Zoom interviews: what's your general research area? 27) Ecology x3 28) Sexual selection 29) community ecology 30) evolutionary ecology 31) would have saved some heart break if they didn't mention they were also considering evo biology. Congrats to the finalist! This one was a competitve one 32) Did full interview invites go out? 33) At least somebody mentioned sexual selection... wouldn't this align with the evo side of the search? My guess is that the zoom interviews were half and half (the search committee itslef is nicely split). 34) No news on my end but doesn't mean invites didn't go out! lol x2 35) Postdoc seminars listed for November: https://lsa.umich.edu/eeb/news-events/all-events.html#date=2021-11-10&view=month Congrats to the finalists! X2 36) That seminar list is for LCF fellowship at UMich, not for the tenure-track position 37) lol 38) It's been less than a week since the last zoom interviews. They might need more time to decide! 39) Campus invitation received! 40) congrats @39 and best of luck for the interview day. great achievement independent of the outcome! 41) Congrats @39! Can I ask how many open dates they offered? 42) not 39 but I received a lot of options! Which makes me think there are a lot of finalists (not your typical 4-5). 43) Extra ouch. x2 44) got a very respectful rejection Nov 23 x19. 45) campus invite received - apparently 6 candidates interviewing 46) I suspect 3 Ecology, 3 Evolution..

(x3) 4) Rejection email sent x3 5) This search seems to be moving glacially 6) There is a visitior who checks all the boxes of the job ad. Starting to wonder if this is just a phantom search to hire them. 7) it's only been two weeks since they requested letters. With delay in letter submission + time to review, that doesn't seem like long at all. 8) @6- I think I know who you are talking about; this person would be a great long-term hire, but hasn't indicated being on an inside track, so no evidence of phantom search. I think the search is just moving somewhat slowly, enabled by the early due date. 9) Rejection email received after letters had been requested (x4). 10) I haven't gotten a rejection or an invitation after letters requested.

More pings on my website but not sure if it's from this search or not. 12) Invited for Zoom Interview x3. 13) 10/30 - so either they are sending Zoom interview invitations not all at once or they are not interviewing everyone for whom they requested letters (and possibly both of these things) 14) I had a Zoom interview this past week and was invited for an on campus interview.

(11/12) 5) still silence here 11/12 x4 6) I'm guessing still no updates 11/30 x8 7) No updates for me as of 4/12 8) Still nothing on my end as of Dec 07 x4 9) letter requested 10/12 10) anyone else hear anything since 07/12? 11) nothing for me :( 21/12 x4 12) I've still heard nothing as of 1/5 13) nothing as of Jan 10/21 x3 14) 9 here, haven't heard any more since 15) @9 did they tell you they were requesting letters, or did your references tell you? Im not sure my references would tell me if a job actually asked them for one 16) 9 again, my references told me they'd been contacted for a letter, I haven't heard anything from the search committee. does it hurt to ask your references? 17) (15 again) probably doesn't hurt to ask my references if they got a request but it feels awkward.	18

I feel like Jesuit universities aren't that religious. 2) Does anyone know how seriously they would consider someone studying animals? It looks like they prefer someone studying plants/fungi. 3) SC Chair here: Holy Cross is a Jesuit institution and only religious in the same way that other Jesuit institutions like Georgetown University or Boston College are religious. You do not have to make any type of profession of faith to work here. We are open to receiving applications from individuals who work with any biological/ecological system, animals included. Please feel free to contact me, Justin McAlister jmcalist@holycross.edu, if you have any questions. 3) Thank you! 4) Are letters of recommendation due Sep. 17? Or is it ok to just provide contact info for 3 references? 5) From what I understand the letters are due with the application-you can either upload them directly yourself or Interfolio will send a request on your behalf and your letter writers can upload them directly. 6) Maybe I missed something, but Interfolio wouldn't let me submit my application without uploading recommendation letter files - no option to have them send a request to recommenders on my behalf. 7) SC Chair again: Thank you to everyone who submitted an application. I recognize the amount of time and effort it takes to put together an application and I appreciate your commitment to science and education. You are an impressive group of scientists and we have our work cut out for us as a committee! 8) Hopefully no one is automatically weeded out if a letter of rec is missing or late. Requiring letters up front is a huge burden and letter writers often forget these interfolio requests 9) Zoom Interview invite (9/30) x5 10) anyone hear any update about on-campus invites? (10/19) 11) crickets. was told search committee would meet early this week and contact candidates for on campus interviews late this week. I just assume I didn't make the cut. 12) In-person finalist interview invitation on 10/22 13) Official rejection email (thank you Holy Cross for at least lettting us know!) x3 14) 12/6 Offer made	18

Looking for an organismal biologist who is excited to teach our first year biology core course and occasionally help with our core course in cellular and molecular biology. Open to different research expertise. 2) Is the teaching load really just 3 courses per year (that's great if it is)? What about labs? 3) looks like letters of rec are requested up front? Yes, it is three courses per semester and lab sections count as a full course. 4) 3 courses per semester or per year? 5) Is "organismal" considered distinct from Ecology/Evolution, like in this chart: https://www.lakeforest.edu/academics/majors-and-minors/biology/requirements 6) Department member here: Yes, "Organismal" is distinct from Eco/Evo. We are not looking for help with our Eco/Evo core course, but rather some excited about our core courses in Organismal and Cell/Molecular. 7) @OP and 6 So teaching fit is a bigger consideration than research fit? 8) phone interviews early October (10/1) x2 9) Received an official rejection email on 10/11 (x2) 10) on campus interview 10/19 11) interviewed over the phone, haven't heard anything since	6

Yes 2) No, they were planning to hire mulitple people over the course of next few years. They hired an RNA virologist from last year's search. 3) Any idea if there will be a more basic sciences search this year as well? I thought they were alternating 4) This is a different search than last year's. Don't speculate if you don't know. 5) The deadline on the application site states Aug 2, 2021 - should this be corrected or am I misinformed? 6) The review date listed in the application instructions is 10/15/2021. I assume the 8/2/2022 deadline at the top is to keep the position open on Interfolio after the formal application deadline (just in case there are late applicants).7) Has anyone heard anything about this? 8) 12/14 haven't heard anything 9) 1/11 haven't heard anything....	3

These cooperative appointments are voting faculty members of their university. Their promotion to associate or full professor is voted on by the faculty (although it's just a title change, and not much more since they are paid by the government). They often teach a graduate course each year (or more). They supervise graduate (and undergraduate) student research. Thus, they are truly academic positions. I would call them "Permanent non tenure track", since these appointments are ineligible for tenure. 3) This should be listed as USGS, though also at Clemson. This position was on last year's sheet too. 4) they just sent
