The WCC Job Market Series is a set of workshops whose goal is to try to demystify the academic job market in Classics (and related fields) for new and returning applicants. Each session features panelists from different career stages and institutions discussing topics related to the academic job market, such as cover letters, CVs, interviewing, and various types of statements (e.g. teaching, research, and diversity).
