Job Market Interviews have always been a central part of the ASSA Annual Meeting but will occur online once again for 2023. We hope that you will continue to take advantage of the JOE Network for your candidate profiles, job listings, and letter writing, as well as the application module that includes a tool for scheduling interviews. The 蝌蚪网 will continue to provide Signaling and the Job Market Scramble. The 蝌蚪网 Committee on the Job Market offers periodic updates on conditions in the job market and has issued guidance and a timeline for the 2022–23 economics job cycle. Visit /joe/communications for details and other updates.
2022–23 Minority Job Market Candidates. The Committee on the Status of Minority Groups in the Economics Profession (CSMGEP) maintains a web page listing of 2022–23 minority job market candidates as a resource for employers.

Hoover at ghoover@tulane.edu.
The 蝌蚪网 wants to help keep you informed! EconTrack – the 蝌蚪网 Job Information Board is now open to provide job candidates with reliable information about the status of open positions during the annual job market cycle. This service is hosted by the 蝌蚪网 and is intended to provide verified and up-to-date information in a professional climate. We need your department’s participation to make it successful!

The 蝌蚪网’s Committee on the Status of LGBTQ+ Individuals in the Economics Profession (CSQIEP) is excited to announce another round of its mentoring program, led by Pete Troyan (University of Virginia). For more information and to sign up, visit . The deadline is October 15, 2022. The mentoring program is targeted at queer-identifying Ph.D. students and early career economists. A large need is anticipated for mentors, especially senior mentors who can mentor Assistant Professors and other early career queer economists. A person can serve as both a mentee and a mentor (e.g., an Assistant Professor can mentor a PhD student and be mentored by a senior scholar). Mentees should be queer-identifying. For mentors, CSQIEP would like as many queer-identified economists as possible, but allies are also welcomed to sign up to be a mentor. If you have any questions, please contact Pete Troyan at pgt8y@virginia.edu.
