Many of you may know I took a Visiting Assistant Professor position at Washington State University over the summer and started that job this year. This Spring, WSU advertised for a tenure track position in my field, and I applied, the only caveat being that I asked the Department Chair and Search Chair to inform me the moment I was considered a candidate no longer.
They didn't follow through. Instead, today I learned that Skype interviews have been scheduled.
I was not asked for an interview.
Thank you, Academic Jobs Wiki.
A phone call to the Search Chair beginning with "Are you familiar with Academic Jobs Wiki?" soon lead to a confession and a quick end to the phone call.
I'll keep you informed of what happens next, how much agency I had in the actions taken, and whatever the fallout for me may be. In the meantime, I have to go stock up on rice and beans, I guess.
