Each year, readers ask for threads for discussing and reporting news on the job-market. I just posted this season's discussion thread here. Please visit that thread if you are interested in discussing/commiserating about this year's market. The current thread (below) is for reporting news on the market (i.e. reporting interviews, flyouts, offers, hires, and so on). Although it should go without saying, commenters are asked to remember the Cocoon's supportive mission while reporting.
Note: I've placed permalinks to both threads on the right-hand side of blog.

Waitinginvain: I checked my application, and apparently is is "no longer under consideration" or something similar. You might check yours too.
Has anyone heard *anything* about the Assistant Teaching Professor position at Wake Forest? Anyone reached out to the department?
Posted by: Throwaway Name | 04/24/2019 at 10:14 AM
Throwaway Name: This probably isn't helpful but I haven't heard anything about the wake forest position and haven't reached out.
Posted by: Joe Bob | 04/24/2019 at 04:12 PM
I also don't have much helpful to add about wake forest, but I imagine they were inundated with applications and are taking a while to work their way through them. I expect it's a similar story with U-Mass Boston and Auburn. It's possible the search committees didn't quite realize just how desirable these positions are in the current market.
