job-materials

Use this skill whenever a user needs help preparing academic job application materials for anthropology positions. Triggers include: any mention of "academic CV," "curriculum vitae," "cover letter," "job application," "job talk," "academic job market," "tenure-track application," "postdoc application," "VAP application," "lecturer position," "how to write a cover letter," "CV formatting," "job talk preparation," "campus visit," "search committee," "application package," "tailoring applications," or "academic hiring." Covers academic CV design and formatting, cover letters tailored by position type, job talk design and delivery, and application strategy. Do NOT use for research/teaching/diversity statements (use career-statements skill), conference presentations (use conference-materials skill), or grant proposals (use grant-proposal skill).
