Inside the Search Committee: How Faculty Read Your Application

About this event

How does a faculty search committee read a CV, a research statement, or a teaching statement? In this lunch workshop hosted by the Postdoc ECRG, a panel of University of Arkansas associate deans, facilitated by the Office for Faculty Affairs, will review three anonymized application packets submitted by postdoc volunteers. Panelists will discuss what they notice first, what works well, and what they would change, giving attendees a direct look at how these documents are evaluated. The session closes with open Q&A. The workshop is designed for postdocs preparing for the academic job market, and it is open to all university employees who want to strengthen their application materials. Lunch will be provided.
