Course Information
Description
The job placement seminar will meet during the Fall semester to help students prepare dossiers of their work for the academic job market and facilitate explorations of careers beyond the academy. The class will meet roughly every two weeks, providing a supportive structure for participants to produce, workshop, and revise application materials. We will also arrange mock interviews and practice teaching demonstrations. The placement officers provide one-on-one support with editing/proofing materials and guidance in navigating the applications process. This seminar is restricted to students in the English department. We welcome students who are intending to actively apply for postdocs or jobs this year to enroll; some seminar sessions suitable for those interested in thinking about the market or their career options but not actively applying this year will be advertised more widely and open to all graduate students in the department.
