AcademicJobsOnline is an automated job/program application system
created and currently operated by the Department of Mathematics of Duke University.
AcademicJobsOnline expands the service of the highly
successful MathJobs.Org of the
American Mathematical Society, making
it available to all other employers (academic, industrial or research) searching for job candidates with advanced degrees in
other disciplines.
(New disciplines will be added as needed whenever new employers sign up for the service.
Mathematics related departments must register and post jobs at the MathJobs.Org.)
The following online comment by Prof. Frank Thorne says it best:
And here is a quote from the CIO of the Institute for Advanced Study on the integration of our services to their local application system:
Both systems have been created for the same purpose of streamlining the academic hiring process and saving time and resources for both employers and job applicants. Just like MathJobs.Org which has become the single essential posting location for mathematics-related jobs, we believe the AcademicJobsOnline will become equally indispensable to other employers wishing to reach all potential applicants in a secure, efficient and cost-effective manner.
AcademicJobsOnline enables employers to collectively attract the best job candidates in various disciplines to a single application site. Applicants can easily apply for listed jobs because they only have to learn one interface. The system goes far beyond the traditional online advertisement and resume collection; it enables the employers to manage their hiring processes totally online at one place in a paper-less and efficient fashion. The costs and support problems traditionally associated with each individual employer's hiring process are greatly reduced, and employers are also relieved of the software development and maintenance burdens. We provide this as a valuable service to the academic community, charging only a nominal fee to employers to cover our basic operational expenses.
The system is free for applicants. After registration login,
applicants fill out an online coversheet with their basic contact
information, education and research background, and can upload any
number of files to their own private portfolio. Then they can use the items in
the portfolio to apply for posted jobs, and keep track of their job
application status in a single place. Applicant coversheet data is
confidential, unless the applicant makes it public to the enrolled
employers by selecting the "Free agent" choice on the coversheet.
Applicants can invite their
reference writers to submit their letters to the system at any time. Reference writers
have total control of their uploaded letters, and have the freedom and
feedbacks not possible with the traditional paper-based process.
Employers can review all application materials and conduct their
recruiting entirely online from anywhere in the world, without
setting up and maintaining their own servers and databases. The
system has been designed with the needs and convenience of faculty search committees in mind, and it has many features to help them search, list and rate
applicants, communicate with colleagues, produce EEO reports or export data
to their own systems, and
even manage mailing lists. The only requirement for employers is that
they have web access.
