    Dear ONE colleagues, 

    as we are getting closer to the event, I hope you will forgive the repost: 

    No one might actually like it, we all can't live without it either, but yet its inner workings are a deep mystery to many. Of course, we are referring to the academic job market - one that can be challenging for management scholars!

    For demystifying this, the Social Issues in Management (SIM) division of the Academy of Management has been organising, since 2021, an online session to help junior scholars in the broad field of social issues in management (e.g., business ethics, CSR, environment, governance, society, sustainability, etc.) to listen to experiences from recruiters and recruited candidates from different parts of the world. This year's session will be held on June 12th at 1500-1630 BST (0700-0830 PDT; 1000-1130 EDT; 1600-1730 CEST; 1930-2100 IST; 2200-2330 CST). 

    We have invited a panel of scholars from Recruiting Committees (Elisa Alt, King's College London, UK; Eva Niesten, SKEMA, France; Sylvia Grewatsch, Brock University, Canada) and a panel of recruited candidates (Hyeonjin Cha, Bucknell University, USA; Sean Dwyer, University of Oklahoma, USA; Amanda Williams, EMLyon, France) to discuss their experiences, share tips and tricks and answer your questions, for instance, on teaching load, research support, or academic culture in the respective institutes. The panel discussion will be moderated by Frank de Bakker (IESEG School of Management, France) & Sebastian Hafenbrädl (IESE, Spain), with special support from Sarah Stephen (Liverpool, UK).


    It is a chance to explore and understand the academic climate around the world by talking to scholars who have been involved in the recruitment process, from different sides of the table and in different regions of the world.
