Presentation for Students Going on the Job Market

Plan on going on the job market in the next few years? If so, come hear several soon-to-be-professors talk about their experiences. We'll discuss the ASA job search, strategies for successfully navigating the market (for teaching, research, and mixed universities), and how to stay sane. It's also a perfect time to ask your friends questions you have about the process. Email Mike Roemer with questions (mroemer@mail.utexas.edu).
