Editorship at PERjobs

Editorship at PERjobs

PERjobs is searching for new members to join the editorial squad. In the last five years, we've grown from one editor to an entire squad of people.  Hundreds of people read us from all over the world (though mostly the US).  We're the top hit for "physics education jobs" on Google.

This resource could not exist without the support of the community.

If you're currently looking for a job, if you're thinking about looking for a job in the future, or if you recently found a job and can't stop looking at other ads, then you should contribute to PERjobs.

Minimum requirements:

  • 0.5 hour / week
  • Google account
Desired qualifications
  • 1 hour / week
  • Avid PERjobs reader
  • Knowledge of how to find ads in PER beyond reading PER jobs.
If you meet the minimum but not the desired, we'll train you.  Salary: I'll buy you a beer* at the next AAPT meeting, and you can put PERjobs on your CV.

If you're interested, email me, Ellie Sayre, at perjobs@gmail.com.

ps: On a personal note, it's time for me to step down as editor.  I'll train the next crowd and then bow out.  If you're interested in answering PERjobs emails, indicate that on your application email.

* Beer offer only valid if you remind me.  Other beverage substitutions ok.
