Please join us for a new event in the WCC Job Market Series!
In Negotiating a Job Offer, we tackle your questions about what to do after you have an offer: what are reasonable asks in response to an offer, what you can negotiate, and how much time you have to make a decision.
Topics include:
When should you negotiate and with whom
What can you negotiate apart from salary
How to approach tricky issues, like chronic illness or trailing partners
How gender and/or race can impact negotiations
How to navigate negotiations and the hiring committee
What a VAP might be able to ask for
Differences between types of institutions and departments
Common pitfalls and things to avoid
The format for this workshop will be a roundtable discussion with the panelists led by the organizers, followed by an open discussion for participants to ask questions and share tips about negotiating.

The WCC Job Market Series is a set of workshops whose goal is to try to demystify the academic job market in Classics (and related fields) for new and returning applicants. Each session features panelists from different career stages and institutions discussing topics related to the academic job market, such as cover letters, CVs, interviewing, and various types of statements (e.g. teaching, research, and diversity). To view previous sessions, visit https://www.wccclassics.org/jobmarket. For more information about upcoming events and to register for this one, visit wccclassics.org/events.
