Notes from proseminar (3/11/2011): 

Job postings begin in October of the year before.  You will want to have to submitted drafts of several chapters of your dissertation to your adviser, so that s/he can speak on their beliefs that you will finish by the following spring. The JOB TALK is similar to a professional research presentation but longer and geared toward a broader audience.  Select findings that are easily "narrativized" for engaging the audience.  Be prepared to field questions. Prepare for your interview by finding out about the context and who is on the search committee. When preparing you CV, separate publications into categories (see examples). Recommendation LETTERS: When asking letter writers, provide job description, CV, and draft of cover letter. If possible designate that certain people highlight certain aspects. Keep your letter writers updated about your job search. PORTFOLIOS & DOSSIERS can include examples of papers, course syllabuses, conference presentations. Consider archiving documents on a digital space.
