I didn't get the position. But.......neither did anyone else. Seriously. 3 months and an entire, full scale faculty search later they didn't hire anyone.
I got an e-mail this morning informing me that they had closed the search BUT will be re-opening the search as a "visiting" position to be filled for one year only and I am invited to apply for that when it gets posted. I must admit that I feel much better knowing that no one got the job (schaudenfreude, anyone?).
I'm stubborn - I have every intention of re-applying as soon as I see that position posted. If I made it to the finals for a full-time position I can make it that far for a limited-time offer, right? Plus, I have absolutely nothing to lose. I've already got all my documents ready to go and they already have my transcripts and all my recommendation letters. Not to mention the fact that they've already interviewed me.......seems easy to me (although this seemed easy to me from the beginning). I can only wait and see.......again.
