I am a philosophy post-doc at Auburn and a longtime appreciator of the work you and your teammates do at the Cocoon! You’ve definitely helped me with my jobs and teaching.
I recently started an e-mail list compiling job USAJobs postings for which humanists might be good fits…The first post is here: https://andgovcheese.substack.com/p/jobs-for-humanists-64 It’s on Substack, but free.
I also have a little blurb on the “about” page..: https://andgovcheese.substack.com/about
"Wine and Government Cheese is a weekly e-mail of federal jobs for people with advanced degrees in the humanities and social sciences. You have a particular set of skills. Allegedly, they’re fungible. Also, there are 10k openings on the USAJobs website and the search engine doesn’t let you exclude terms or reverse sort. W&GC points out at least some of the positions that are 1) open to the public and, 2) applicable to people with MAs or PhDs in the humanities and the humanistic social sciences.
Subscribing gets you a weekly e-mail with highlights from the job descriptions and links to the questionnaires so you can do a better job searching and applying for jobs."
This looks awesome. I thank Madeline for her kind words about the blog, for her work putting her initiative together, and for sharing it with us!
