What the Academic Job Market is Like! // Applying for Professor Positions // Academic Job Applications.
As a final year PhD student on the academic job market, I'm sharing what I've learned about this academic job application process thus far! I'll discuss how to find professor, lecturer, and post-doc positions; briefly mention the common application materials required, discuss the interview timeline, and finally, shed insight into my personal experience as a Mass Communication PhD student specializing in health media effects.
In my next video, I'll be doing a deep dive about preparing your job application materials!

Isn’t that wild?! In the one hand, time has flown by! On the other hand, it’s been a long 4.5 years hahaha and Aw! Thanks so much for sticking around for the ride 💕

I have applied to 28 different academic jobs starting September 2023 and I haven’t heard back from them since then, now it is November 25

[@oliviasimonephd]

A two month lag isn't bad!! Did you end up hearing back from them in the spring?

[@gisousalkhi]

@@oliviasimonephdyes I received all rejections, and I responded after 6 months in some of jobs
