Interview season within the world of sociology kicked off with a whimper at ASA this year, with 30ish jobs and 500ish applicants. Now it's time to scamper back to our home bases and put together job talks that will blow all prospective departments out of the water. I have my practice job talk scheduled for October. At this time, I will put myself out there for my cohorts to rip apart, with the idea being that they will catch all the glaring problems with my presentation before I do it For The Win. In front of people who have a JOB I want.
Most of you are already well aware of the importance of having an engaging and informative job talk. Less discussed is the equally pivotal job talk musical interlude. Here's what I'm working on. Also, consider this Interview Attire, Take 2.
