ReplyDeleteGood point -- thanks.
Delete"Fribourg, Switzerland" - like all Swiss academic positions at the Assistant Professor level: if you're older than 30, they will not hire.
ReplyDelete82 academic job postings in just two weeks. Where is the data for the down academic job market?
ReplyDeleteSo you realize that this is recruiting season so you should be comparing year-over-year numbers, right?
Deleteummm... y-o-y 2012 to 2013 shows vast improvement, when looking at your data from last september
ReplyDeleteI agree with you that there seem to be more positions advertised.
DeleteDo you agree with me that, when looking at an overall job market, one should look at supply of potential employees, as well as open positions?
