Anyone have any info on this search? I know they had a late deadline (Sunday), but has anyone heard back from them, or know if they plan to contact people before the break? Just wondering if I should "unplug" for the break or keep an eye out. Thanks!
I have no direct news, but this job was not even posted until December. Based on the timing I have seen at other searches, the SC likely got their personal short lists together over break and when they return sometime in late January they'll have an SC meeting to determine the long/short lists. Then the next week (last week in Jan, maybe early Feb) would be the one I would expect them to make interview invites. However, the schedule would be expected to be shifted up a couple of weeks if UConn begins 2nd semester early in Jan.
I second that. The job deadline was a month ago, and it was a late deadline…you'd think they'd be notifying people as soon as possible so that they could still have a shot at some of the best candidates (before they accept offers elsewhere). Is this an inside hire? Any info would be much appreciated…there are obviously a few of us very eager to hear about this search, as it was the last R1 social job posted. Many thanks to anyone who can shed some light on the situation!!!! It would be great to know whether this is still a realistic option or whether it's time to move on.
