I'll break in thread #2 with a reply to the poster in thread 1 asking about that Cornell position: I don't have anything useful to say, but I am curious where those of you who are looking for MatSci positions in addition to chemistry ones do your searching. I've been looking on Academic Keys and the MRS job board primarily since there isn't a good "materials" section of HigherEdJobs. However the number of postings I've found feels so small compared to chemistry that I feel like I must be missing some. I understand that there are fewer MatSci departments across the US than Chemistry ones, so maybe it's just a matter of there being many PUI type schools for Chem and comparatively few MSE ones? Curious if there's some awesome resource I'm missing (and hopefully not too late, lol).
ReplyDeleteInitial Cornell MSE poster here. I am searching primarily for MatSci positions and it has been really tricky to find them. I tend to check HigherEdJobs and Physics Today. The Cornell posting was on AcademicJobsOnline, but it is pretty sus so not sure if that's a fruitful source. Also very interested to hear if anyone has an awesome resource!
DeleteWhat filter(s) do you use on HigherEdJobs? My recollection (which of course could be wrong) was that you'd only find MSE under "other" and then you get all kinds of crazy things like industrial engineering etc.
DeleteI use broad filters and then sort through a bunch of irrelevant postings. Definitely *not* the best method!
DeleteOf course, stand-alone MSE or combination ChE-MSE or MechE-MSE departments are only going to be found within engineering schools. On HigherEdJobs, limit your searches to engineering and then use "materials science" as a keyword. Another place to look is the University Materials Council, which is highly limited but had postings I've never seen anywhere else. (BTW, the number of PUIs with materials science-focused departments can be counted on one hand: Alfred, San Jose State, Montana Tech, and UW-Eau Claire are all I know. You barely need two hands for the R2s: Boise State, IIT, Lehigh, Michigan Tech, UC-Merced and UC-Riverside. MSE departments usually don't require a large faculty for teaching. They can also be drawn from almost any discipline. Frankly, I wouldn't limit yourself to looking in MSE.)
DeleteJust FYI. UC Riverside is an R1.
DeleteSorry. No offense intended.
DeleteNo offense taken :)
DeleteA stray comment:
ReplyDeleteAnonymousNovember 7, 2023 at 8:52 PM
Someone added phone interview contacts from Texas A&M chemistry to the status tracker. Were there for analytical/physical or theoretical/computational?
https://chemjobber.blogspot.com/2023/06/c-tough-days-in-german-chemical-industry.html?showComment=1699408323204#c6024294978567402687
From Future PI sheet, it appears both physical and theory/comp got reached out.
DeleteAnyone hear from Yale Chem search?
ReplyDeleteYale probably will take longer to go through the packages since they’re doing the anonymized proposal. I will assume they look at the proposal first.
DeleteWow this is such a cool idea! But i assume it is hard to keep proposal anonymous because you will inevitably cite your work as a postdoc and people can infer who you are. It is a small world :)
DeleteU of Utah had an anonymous proposal (and also took like 45 days between priority date and first interview requests for what it's worth) and explicitly told you to remove references... or at least I did to ensure anonymity. I'm pretty sure it was instructed in that case.
DeleteAnyone hear from UMN theory search?
ReplyDeleteNot sure if you're hip with the tracker or not (https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zZf5I43l4jXVUWsIUZVo7UeA9vrIszitGdkYA9XUBgY/edit#gid=463502578)
DeleteBut it looks like someone was contacted for a zoom interview on October 30. Since that was just 10 days ago I'd be shocked if they'd already moved on to sending campus invites.
I wish more people were updating the tracker. Unless R1s are generally running slower than normal? I expected to see more movement last week for R1s... though I wasn't contacted so also hoping there just wasn't much going on , sad lol.
DeleteYeah I'm in the same boat lol, just wish things were moving faster/there was more transparency (in 5-10 years when we're chairing these search committees we can be the change we want to see in the world!). I do feel that the tracker probably catches like 90% of goings-on in terms of interviews, certainly for R1's. CJ has built an incredible ecosystem for us - If he reads this, thank you! - to chat and try to keep this process transparent.
DeleteNo one is obligated to post information on the tracker, and there are legitimate reasons they may wish not to do so. It would be nice if the search committees would be more transparent about the search status, but I am not holding my breath that that will become the norm.
DeleteNot trying to be antagonistic, but what reason would one have not to post the information there? I don't see how me posting updates about my interviews could possibly hurt me.
DeleteMany years ago, a faculty candidate shared with me a social media account that was created only to harass a faculty candidate about their interview schedule. I have never forgotten that (clearly). While I am willing to stipulate that this is an extreme example, I'm not surprised that some people desire as much privacy as the process will allow.
DeleteHas anybody received rejection letters from Utah Chemistry?
ReplyDeleteNo, but someone has heard back from the inorganic and organic searches back on 11/2, so if you were hoping for those positions you might be out of luck. I applied last year to Utah, and I didn't get an official rejection until 4/17, so I think if you're waiting for anything official it might take awhile
DeleteYeah, a lot of places don't send official rejections until their hire signs the contract.
DeleteIt's worse than that. A lot of places don't send official rejections even after their hire signs the contract.
DeleteAnyone hear anything from Stanford?
ReplyDeleteSomeone entered a zoom/phone interview contact on 11/6 in the tracker (it's under Leland Stanford Junior University lol)
DeleteDoes anyone know for which areas Stanford is interviewing?
DeleteDefinitely organic, but maybe also other areas
DeleteWhy so sure organic?
Deleteunless you have a million or two saved, have fun living in Palo Alto!
DeleteSomeone added phone interview contacts from University of Pittsburgh. Any idea how many were shortlisted?
ReplyDeleteDarn.. I didn't get it. Wonder the same thing and also specific areas in theory
DeleteI've noticed quite a few positions with November deadlines getting reposted with December deadlines. (Engineering departments mainly.) Naturally, it's irritating to those who already submitted, but what's potentially going on?
ReplyDeleteProbably not a large enough number of applicants
DeleteAnon@8:01AM here. The only problem with the "limited applicants" hypothesis is that departments at second-tier R1s were sending out rejection letters last year claiming hundreds of applicants.
DeleteNot enough = not enough that they like? Last year I had one school email saying they were canceling their search and would repost next cycle because they didn't have enough "suitable candidates." Either they're looking for something too specific (why not say that in the posting then?) or they had a lot of low-quality applications.
DeleteI hold the "hundreds of applicants" line with quite a bit of skepticism until actually proven true to me. It just seems like boilerplate language.
DeletePI at an R1. >100 applicants is common, but I'm also skeptical of those that claim hundreds. Regardless, the majority of applicants we get are not competitive or do not fit the type of research program we are looking for.
DeletePI at R1 >250
DeleteNot enough "suitable candidates." And now I'm suddenly reconsidering a lot of life choices I've made.
ReplyDeleteVT's energy (experimental) position has started interviewing according to the tracker, how about the computational one?
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone know which area UIUC is searching for this cycle?
ReplyDeleteOne of their profs sent around an email to other faculty a couple of months ago saying they were interested in organic, but idk if that's the only or even the main area that they are focused on. FWIW, I'm organic and haven't heard back from UIUC, but maybe I just didn't make the cut.
Deleteorganic
DeleteThanks for the info.. hope that 1:16 gets good news from elsewhere (I am not in organic tho)
DeleteUIUC prof here: The organic area is definitely hungry, but we always bring in candidates from multiple fields and each area has been evaluating files. There have been several times in the past where we had a pressing need in one area but ended up making offers in other areas because we liked those candidates better. So don't lose hope if you're not an organic applicant.
Delete@4:11, Thanks so much for the information and cheerful message! -OP
DeleteAnybody hear from Caltech Biochem?
ReplyDeleteAny word on Texas Tech or University at Buffalo? Been like 10 weeks since priority date for those searches at this point.
ReplyDeleteNo, but it has only been 6 weeks since the 9/30 and 10/01 priority dates.
DeleteOops I had my December calendar up on my other screen and forgot we're not there yet /facepalm
DeleteNo worries. It definitely FEELS like 10+ weeks. And they might have reached out to more fortunate people than us.
DeleteMaybe I'm overly optimistic but I really would be surprised if any R1 interviews slipped past this thread/the tracker for more than a week or so
DeleteI watched the list last year and saw a lot of R1s not be put on until long after actual dates. Some people like to play things close. Not to mention people have to KNOW about the sheet to post in it.
DeleteAnyone heard from University of Houston?
ReplyDeleteWhich one?
DeleteComputational
DeleteNope
DeleteSomeone entered in the status track that Houston invited campus interview on 11/01/23
Delete@OP: It looks like UH Chemistry posted the seminar schedule for 5 computational candidates without their identities
DeleteHas anyone heard back from Carnegie Mellon? It's been over a month and half from their priority day.
ReplyDeleteAlso interested in this
DeleteAny news on Georgia Tech experimental pchem or organic?
ReplyDeleteCan someone please provide the link to the status traker?
ReplyDeletehttps://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1zZf5I43l4jXVUWsIUZVo7UeA9vrIszitGdkYA9XUBgY/edit#gid=463502578
DeleteThank you so much!
DeleteStony Brook has pushed back the priority date twice now. Definitely not feeling positive about that application.
ReplyDeleteTo give a little perspective as someone who has served on multiple faculty searches (not at Stony Brook), pushing back the deadline due to insufficient suitable candidates does NOT mean that you're out of luck. For example, they might have 3 amazing candidates (hopefully including yourself!), but they might want to do Zoom interviews of 10 and they just don't have close to 10 candidates who meet the criteria they're looking for. Remember that departments are not just looking for good candidates - they're looking for good candidates who would accept an offer if they received one. Nobody wants a failed search, and part of the strategy to not have a failed search is to have several good candidates so that there are other options if the first person doesn't accept their offer. Alternatively, a good candidate might not be invited to an on-site interview if they come off as disinterested in their Zoom interview (too high a risk that the candidate would reject an offer), or they might not look so good anymore after a Zoom interview for other reasons, so it's important to have a large enough pool of candidates who look good on paper.
DeleteWhich one are you talking about? cuz I don't see the change yet..
DeleteTheir senior hire position in synthetic chemistry has changed dates. Original priority date was 11/12, moved to 11/18, and now is 11/30.
DeleteFor such a specific search (senior hire, narrow scope), seems possible the applicant pool isn't sufficiently large to satisfy state hiring practice requirements? Insight from a neighboring state... I wouldn't take it to reflect on the applicants who have submitted so far.
DeleteAny updates on UT Knoxville open position or the Oregon Materials Science jobs?
ReplyDeleteOregon sent out Zoom interview invitations on 11/28
DeleteSaw that on the sheet. Why do I only get interviews from schools in horrible places like Texas and Arkansas? I just wanna get back to the Northwest :(
Delete@10:28am May I ask which Arkansas position you were invited for an interview?
DeleteMy status for the theo/comp position at U Oregon says "shortlisted" but I haven't heard anything from them yet. The priority date was 6 weeks ago (10/2). Anyone else on the same boat?
ReplyDeleteI'm at the same point but for the Material Science position. Been shortlist for at least 2 weeks now but haven't heard any movement beyond that.
DeleteI believe this came up on the previous page of comments - that term can mean a lot of things. At my institution, shortlisted is how we classify in our system applicants that we want to review (i.e. not triaged). If Oregon uses a similar system, I wouldn't expect to hear back within 2 weeks, but 6 is getting up there.
DeleteSomeone posted about getting rejection letter on the sheet a while ago.
DeleteNo update since shortlisted for Oregon theor/comput on 10/11. No idea how many were not triaged.
DeleteA rumor: some compchem faculties with funding has joined the battle for Asst positions
DeleteHow is that possible? Meaning other asst prof want to move from one school to the other?
Delete@2:21 PM is it specific for Oregon or the overall battle?
Delete@2:24pm Yes @2:44pm Not sure. But I guess an asstprof would apply for more than one place if he/she wants to move
DeleteI know of several assistant and associate profs that apply to assistant openings if they want to 1) move or 2) get a raise at their current institute. It is normal.
Delete@3:07 PM if the person did apply for Oregon, that likely explains why there has been no updates for 5 weeks. The hiring dept might want to review the moving faculty first. Once the person accepts the offer then all shortlisted would have a chance to enter a rejection to the tracker LOL
Delete@3:07pm This is worrisome, like what @4:47pm said.
DeleteIt's very common for asst profs to move. Both my PhD and postdoc advisors did that. But it shouldn't make the review process longer.
DeleteLooks like someone sorted the tracker. Good job
ReplyDeleteI just copy paste an earlier version (before the sort), so hopefully everything is Ok.
DeleteBtw, why does U of Kansas appear on the top? (especially out of the pane)
DeleteThis was there in the version I copied from (4:11 pm) so don't know how it got there.
Delete@5:38pm Many thanks!
Delete@6:12, It's okay, I thank you for your work too. I am just sarcastic here against whoever sorted and put UKansas-Inorganic on the top. I am very tempted to delete it for him/her.
Delete...and I just fixed it by putting the outlier back to where it has to appear.
DeleteThe fact that we have to rely on each other like this (because the uni's see us as crabs in a bucket) is yet another layer of BS in the academic job market, smgdh
Deletehas anyone had any nightmare zoom interview experiences? most of mine have gone fine so far, but I had one where they seemed completely disinterested in me from the moment i joined the call.
ReplyDelete"you guys are getting Zoom interviews?"
Deletefaculty here. many schools have search committee members go through anti-bias training. non-verbal cues during zoom interviews are highlighted as one of the things to keep in check. also asking follow up questions. trying to avoid these things definitely can make the zoom interview feel more sterile / disinterested.
DeleteLast year I saw two versions of this. For a few, it was obvious they're trying to be fair and follow the same set of questions, but I felt they were overly cold to the point of seeming disinterested. Others followed a script but were more friendly and the conversation/questions didn't feel forced. I ended up canceling an on-site interview somewhere because of how off the vibes felt during the Zoom.
DeleteI would like to add how one place started off. Camera went on. The chair quickly said everyone's name who was in the room, and then said, "Let's begin. What's your first grant." Talk about diving into the deep end. The better Zooms began with a question like why I was interested in the position/school.
DeleteAt @737, interesting. One the surface that is certainly a very intimidating question. On the other hand, it's a very *deep* question; it gauges the "impact" of your work, and more importantly how you are going to keep the ship afloat. I've been told that you should start applying for grants on *day 1* of the job. It's like a small start up, where we are the CEO/CFO/CTO all rolled into one. I would consider it as a chance to think deeply about "who cares and why". Yea, it's a scary question, but it does force you to become a better at thinking about funding, especially in an age of tight funding.
DeleteI totally expected the question, got it from everyone I Zoomed with, and had a good answer (I did an on-site+chalk talk the day before). It was their tone that ruined it (note I didn't use a ? in my quote because when they asked it was more of a demand). Too much poker face is off-putting, especially when I had other much nicer interactions over Zoom.
DeleteAh my misunderstanding @927. Tone means everything, for sure!
DeleteI had a Zoom interview where 2 faculty members had their cameras on and asked questions, and ~7 faculty members were there but had their cameras off and didn't say anything the entire interview. Felt super strange and off-putting
DeleteStill nothing on the Utah analytical search huh? Wondering if something is going on w/ that one considering the other two searches have on campus contacts now.
ReplyDeleteRumor mill saying they are focusing on a senior hire
DeleteWhere does one find the rumor mill?
DeleteOnsite invitations happen on a single day?
ReplyDeleteUsually
DeleteThank you for your reply! Actually I meant to ask, are onsite invitations sent out on a single day?
DeleteI knew you were asking about sending invitations LOL
DeleteUsually this happens within the span of a couple of days.
DeleteAny news from UFlorida (Polymer)? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteDoes anyone have info the UT Knoxville position? It appeared on the tracker but with the wrong specialty, priority date, and an on-site interview invite sent in the future so it's pretty confusing.
ReplyDeleteI bet someone sorted the sheet again and messed it all up...
Deleteanyone heard from Carnegie Mellon?
ReplyDeleteHas anyone heard about on-sites from the Univ. South Florida, Tampa organic search? The status tracker just has a biochem opening listed and no on-site info. I had a Zoom interview for the organic opening a month ago, and they said they wanted to finish their search relatively quickly, but I haven't heard anything since. Thanks!
ReplyDeleteI did the Zoom for the biochem search more than a month ago and have not heard back. The track from last year also had a broad search. The Zoom was in October, and the onsite contact was in December. I am going to follow up with them after the break.
DeleteSorry to say this, but if it's been a month since you had the Zoom interview then you didn't make the cut to the on-site visit.
DeleteAt least, you're not in the top bunch. At the Zoom stage, most institutions don't notify candidates that they didn't make the cut because there's no going back after that (that's our HR hiring rule). People cancel on-sites more often than you'd think, and if you've already rejected people then you have nobody you can fill the slot(s) with.
DeleteOregon Theor/Comput invited phone interview
ReplyDeleteCongrats! Was the invitation via email?
DeleteIs there anyone else contacted for Oregon Theory/Comput?
DeleteNo ideal how and how many were contacted. Better give up
Deletenot OP but they reached out via email.
Delete@1:33, Thanks.. May I ask you about your research subarea (quantum, stat mech, biophysics, AI/ML, etc.) and/or if you are an asst prof trying to move? I am really frustrated by most of theory search outcomes and getting skeptical about my research and career
DeleteAnother reminder that commenters are under no obligation to provide information that would narrow down their identities.
DeleteI would be willing to be a neutral third party by email if both parties agree in this particular case.
I am from 2:27PM, and I'm not trying to get applicants' identities. But I want to know where I am straying around compared to others. I am down to talk further privately via Prof. CJ, if the other party is okay to share some info.
DeleteI know you're not trying to get applicant identities. But when you're asking:
Delete1. theoretical chemists who are
2. of an age to be looking for positions
3. and their primary research subarea
4. and if they are or are not an assistant professor
you're reducing it from a number that might be hundreds of people to a list of 5-50 people.
You don't personally think this way, but I think about this all the time, which means other people can as well.
Is U Detroit Mercy a #coffeeparrot? The listing was really strange, with review of applications to begin immediately, and has since disappeared.
ReplyDeleteWhat is a coffee parrot?
Deletehttps://twitter.com/Chemjobber/status/968938559716573184
DeleteIs the Cornell search went onsite directly? For an associate position? Anyone know anything about it?
ReplyDeleteFuture PI spreadsheet says Duke started. Any idea what areas?
ReplyDeleteMaybe not my area..
DeleteThis appears on the Future PI sheet but not on the chemistry sheet. Is the chemistry sheet no longer updated?
DeleteBe the change you want to see in the world.
DeleteWhere is the future PI sheet? Can I get a link?

DeleteI recently had an on-site interview. My presentation went fine (I think..). And then was my chalk talk. Basically in one hour went through my Aim 1.. I had 3 aims.. 8 professors from Dept. they were asking a lot of questions and were super engaged, which I thought was a good sign. But how bad is it that I did not finish my aims?
ReplyDeleteMy memory from the "Get a job, Ken" posts earlier this year is that not getting all the way through is common.
DeleteHow many slides did that one hour turn into?
It was a hybrid in terms of slides and board. It was about 4 slides and some sub-aims on the board.
DeleteI was allowed a couple of overview slides with most on the board. I barely got to talk about one of my two project areas due to time constraints.
DeleteNo reason to worry, in my opinion. They've already vetted your work at a high level from your proposal. The chalk talk is how well you can think on your feet. Lots of question is usually a sign of interest in your research.
DeleteHas anyone been contacted for an interview regarding the biochemistry position at U Arkansas? Thank you.
ReplyDeleteAnyone here have any insight into the timeline for The University Of Texas teaching professor position?
ReplyDeleteReached out to UTK about their position (since it's been up for 50 days with no news) and was told they had a "staggering" number of applicants and haven't been able to set up any zoom interviews yet. Considering the large number of apps they got I figured a few of us may benefit from hearing that update :)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the update
DeleteAny news from Cal State San Bernardino (materials chemistry)?
ReplyDeleteNo response. I am thinking to send them an email.
DeleteGot a Zoom interview.
DeleteIs the SLU chemistry position, originally listed on C&EN Jobs (https://chemistryjobs.acs.org/job/39332/tenure-track-assistant-professor/?LinkSource=PremiumListing), being reposted on SLU Careers yesterday (https://slu.wd5.myworkdayjobs.com/en-US/Careers/job/Monsanto-Hall/Assistant-Professor---Chemistry_2023-07484?source=HigherEdJobs) a sign of rejection, even to those who had phone interviews?
ReplyDeleteNo. Looks like the university finally posted the position on their website.
Delete@11:10am Thank you
DeleteI interviewed SLU several years ago. They reposted the position when onsite candidates were confirmed. These candidates were asked to reapply on SLU career website
Delete@2:05PM Thanks for the info.!
DeleteYep. 3 candidates have on site interviews scheduled before the holidays.
DeleteAnyone know if the position that was offered at The University of the South was accepted or declined?
ReplyDeleteWondering if there's anyone that has head anything from the United States Coast Guard Academy?
ReplyDeleteAny update on Virginia Tech's computational search?
ReplyDeleteWaiting on that too but given how long it has been I guess it's gone
DeleteAny updates about on-site interviews for the theory position at Pitt? I see someone updated the tracker. Has anyone got a rejection email yet?
ReplyDeleteSome schools list candidate seminars on their schedules and other don't. Do you think departmetns have policy or it just comes down to whoever updates websites and happens to put everything there?
ReplyDeleteIf it's not a formal rule, search committees will decide themselves how much to advertise. It's most common to keep it private (just the department will know about the talk). Often, the interviewees don't even know who else is being considered.
DeleteMy department had them on the public website, but they were lumped in with all the other seminars and not identified as candidate seminars. Privacy wasn't an issue for postdocs openly looking, but a current PI looking to leave their university would have had plausible deniability as a regular seminar speaker.
DeleteAny updates on the UC-Irvine pharmaceutical sciences search, such as the number of phone interviews and potential campus invitations?
ReplyDeleteFrom the Future PI spreadsheet: 2 positions to fill, > 200 applications received, 10% in phone interviews. I guess they might no more than 10 will be invited to campus.
DeleteAnyone know if they've started interviewing for the TEACH position at UT-Austin?
ReplyDeleteSUNY Oswego environmental chem search was cancelled
ReplyDeleteSUNYs are kind of dying except the big SUNYs like UB, Stony Brook. I actually already in SUNY and am trying to change.
DeleteHearing that colorado school of mines deemed every on-site candidate for both searches unfit and will be sending more invites in the near future after making 0 offers
ReplyDeleteYikes… IMO this is usually a sign of department dysfunction… proceed with caution
DeleteThis hire seems odd; initially, they seemed interested in energy or materials modeling, but during the interview, they mentioned a preference for biomedical candidates. It's puzzling why they invited candidates to campus in the first round.
Delete@4:35pm I meant "who they invited"
DeleteAny news about the comput chem search at Texas San Antonio? I noticed phone interviews and rejections in the chemistry status tracker, but I have received neither.
ReplyDeleteI had a remote interview with them the day before a Thanksgiving, and they stated they would get back with the candidates in three to four weeks.
Delete@5:05PM I had a zoom interview but no rejection. Also curious about who got the rejection(s).
DeleteI got rejection without zoom interview
DeleteThe status tracker indicates UTSA invited on-site today.
DeleteThere was a lot of discussions on the University of Oregon compchem search. Did they already invite onsites?
ReplyDeleteIf you had a remote interview, I guess you may email them.
DeleteI don't think they've said anything yet (at least, I haven't heard back after my zoom interview about the UO onsites).
DeleteAnyone heard from RIT?
ReplyDeleteStill waiting on them too. Nothing has popped up on any of the spreadsheets. *sigh*
DeleteJust found on the application portal that the review started on Dec 15. Are you bioanalytical? Someone from RIT told me they hire anyone irrespective of background. But not sure!
DeleteI'm more biophysical than bioanalytical. Good to hear that they hire irrespective of background! Thanks for letting me know that you found review started Dec. 15. Seems like a long time between priority date and review...but maybe they pushed the date and I just didn't notice. Good luck!!!
DeleteI am already a tenure track faculty at a PUI and applying to R2/R1. I just got a recent small external grant. Should I use this opportunity to follow up with some of the university I have applied to? I got a good independent publication/presentation record in just 2 years in PUI.
ReplyDeleteI definitely think it is a good opportunity to follow up and update your CV. Congratulations.
DeleteI don't think it will matter much unless the grant is of the federal NSF/NIH type.
DeleteJust gave a Zoom at a R2. They seem very interested on the grant and mentioned these sorts of grant always good as a starting point. Not sure about R1.
DeleteAnyone heard from Oklahoma Inorganic?
ReplyDeleteAnyone from James Madison non nuclear?
ReplyDeleteAnyone got information from Stetson? I did Zoom interview but no follow up after that for a month.
ReplyDeleteSorry to say, but if it's been a month since your Zoom then you probably didn't make the cut for an on-campus visit. Most schools, especially PUIs like Stetson, move quickly after Zoom interviews to campus invites.
DeleteQuestion for everyone. Had an on-site a couple of weeks ago. Mentioned to a few people in the department where else I was interviewing (because they asked). Several of the faculty I met with wished me good luck with the rest of my interviews either in person or in replies to my thank-you emails. Does this mean anything, or are they just being nice human beings and I need to touch some grass? Thanks!
ReplyDeleteThey know we all apply to a bunch of places, and if they interviewed you, they would know that others will also be interested. I wouldn't read too much into it other than they're decent people. By the on-site stage, I think both sides are trying to impress.
DeleteAnyone gotten any news from Wake Forest for the Biochemistry position? I've seen on the tracker that they are all the way to on-campus interviews for the PChem position but I haven't seen anything about biochem and I know that separate searches even in the same dept can have different timelines.
ReplyDeleteAny reports on the UT-Knoxville area?
ReplyDelete
