- This book guides aspiring faculty through the academic job market. Its detailed guidance will help you become a competitive candidate for the position and the college that best fit you. Teaching psychology is a noble and rewarding endeavor, but finding the right position at the right college can be a daunting task. This book is designed to guide you through this complicated process by helping you find the job that matches your long‑term goals-whether you want to focus on research, teaching, or both-and to become a strong, competitive candidate in today amp rsquo s challenging academic job market. Author Guy Boysen begins by surveying the wide array of programs and institutions aspiring faculty should consider, including doctoral and master amp rsquo s programs at public and private universities, community colleges, and baccalaureate colleges. He then reviews the ideal skills, experience, and professional connections that students should accumulate during graduate school. Readers will learn strategies for writing CVs, cover letters, and other application materials securing effective letters of recommendation preparing for phone, video, and on‑campus interviews and negotiating terms of employment after being offered a job.
