All materials are collected online via the AcademicJobsOnline website; do not send hard-copies of any materials.

AcademicJobsOnline will also send an email request for a letter of reference to someone you specify. We only need a very SHORT reference; just a few sentences stating that you have the necessary background for the school is sufficient.
