Being a successful job candidate requires not only skills and knowledge, but also careful preparation. Faculty panelists will give a brief overview of their own professional job search, and will lead an open question and answer session. Come hear from our faculty panelists as they discuss:

• How and where to learn about open positions
• Interviewing for a position and job talk essentials
• What to include in the cover letter, CV, and teaching and research statements
• Managing the job search, application, and interview process
