ONE ON ONE CAREER CONSULTING
$350
****
Reduced Rate for Pandemic
Normally $400. During this crisis I am opening advising/consulting on any quandaries related to the academic career, including publication plans, departmental politics, dealing with Imposter Syndrome or writers block, tenure anxieties, job market struggles, exit strategizing, or the decision to leave academia entirely. There are no wrong ideas or bad questions! You can get help in two ways: a 1 hour skype consult, or alternatively, a 5-email exchange consult. Both are $350
I prefer all career consulting clients to do at least one document edit with me first (either CV or CL) so that I have a holistic knowledge of your record before starting. The rationale for this is twofold: on the one hand, I get to know your record quickly, so I can advise you better. And on the other, clients tend to find the editing process illuminating in itself, and you will see many basic questions answered by the editing process (and get a finished doc out of it), allowing us to devote the 5 questions to more “advanced” issues. A job doc is $180, so this does represent an additional expense, and I’ll be happy to consider exceptions to this for financial reasons. Feel free to email me at gettenure@gmail.com with any questions about the consulting/advising process.

For example, we help you effectively summarize your numerical and narrative evaluations and provide a list of proposed courses that match your profile.
