Each year a few of the graduate students always ask me various questions about finding a job, so I decided to include a few useful links. In addition, there is a PDF file that you can download which comes from a talk that I gave in our DynaLite seminar. The talk focused on writing CVs, Teaching and Research Statements as well as Cover Letters. The link for the presentation is in the Looking for Jobs section below. If you have other useful job links, please email them to me for posting - Lisa.
