Semantics Workshop: October 1 – Discussion of the Semantics Job Market

The next meeting of the Semantics Workshop will be held on October 1st, from 12:20 to 1:10 in room 451 of the ILC.

At this meeting, we will have a discussion of the job market in semantics. A variety of perspectives will be discussed: that of the employer, that of the applicant, and that of the field at large (i.e., ‘what are the trends that we’re starting to see?’). People who have recently experienced the academic job market are strongly encouraged to share their perspectives and experiences, as are students who are about to enter the market.
