Advertising and Recruitment Resources

Please contact the Office of Equity & Equal Opportunity (9-7157) if you would like assistance identifying recruitment resources.

Please contact Academic Personnel Services (9- 6724) with questions concerning the requirements for placing advertisements.

Drafting Advertisements

Search committees can use an ad-drafting template when drafting ad text. Submit and review the proposed ad with Celia in Academic Personnel to ensure a speedier trip through the request process and result in an ad that will be acceptable if the search results in a need to sponsor a foreign national for permanent resident status.

Complete the ad-drafting template

Group Advertisements

Hiring units can join with other departments to post several position announcements in a single ad.

Departmental Individualized Advertising

Each department could use the following types of specialized resources:

  • Primary professional organizations in specialized and related fields
  • Minority & women specific professional organizations in specialized and related fields
  • Listservs and distribution outlets for minorities and women in specialized and related fields
  • Subgroups of primary professional organizations that are minority and women specific

Other Recruiting Efforts

  • Advertise, post job announcements, and recruit in field–related professional organizations at annual regional and national conferences.
  • Send position announcements to minority and female–concentrated schools: Historically Black Colleges and Universities, Hispanic, Female and Native American Serving Institutions.
  • Ask search committee members to make personal efforts (calling colleagues at other institutions, etc.) to find and recruit candidates.
