6/25 – The Academic Job Cover Letter

The academic job cover letter is a crucial document in any candidate’s application material; often, it makes the first and most lasting impression on members of a search committee. In this workshop, participants will learn how to write a cover letter that is compelling and memorable, and that avoids the common mistake of simply listing information already available in a candidate’s CV. If you​ plan to go on the job market next year and want to draft your materials over the summer, this workshop will help you get off to a good start.
