Posts on the Career Center website are divided into “community” posts and “commercial” posts. Before you submit your post, please carefully review the following guidelines to ensure that your post information is properly formatted and that you select the correct posting product.
Step 1: Community or commercial?
Determine if your post is a “community” or “commercial” post.
Community posts include calls for papers (for unpaid conferences and publications); calls for applications (for grants, fellowships, subventions, and other funding opportunities, NOT jobs); announcements of free events (conferences, performances, workshops, etc.); calls for nominations (for awards, honors, and unpaid service positions); unpaid career or mentoring opportunities; etc.
Commercial posts fall into two categories: paid job opportunities and commercial products. Those are defined as follows:
Paid job opportunities include tenure track positions, contract positions, administrative positions, paid performance gigs, paid internships, and paid contract roles and opportunities.
Commercial products include all items offered for purchase, rental, or subscription, including publications, conference and performance tickets, software and digital products, degree programs and educational workshops, instruments and audio-visual equipment, etc.
Step 2: Select your post product
Choose your posting product.
If you have a “commercial” post, you can do a regular or featured post.
Regular “commercial” posts cost $99 for thirty (30) days, are searchable on the Career Center site, and distributed to interested users via user alerts.
Featured “commercial” posts cost $145 for thirty (30) days, are searchable on the Career Center site, distributed to interested users via user alerts, and are highlighted on the Career Center website and in user search results.
If you have a “community” post, you can choose a free, regular, or featured post.
Free “community” posts are available on the Career Center site for five (5) days and distributed to interested users via user alerts.
Regular “community” posts cost $29 for thirty (30) days, are searchable on the Career Center site, and distributed to interested users via user alerts.
Featured “community” posts cost $145 for thirty (30) days and are searchable on the Career Center site, distributed to interested users via user alerts, and highlighted on the Career Center website and in user search results.
Step 3: Submit your post information and pay
Use the Career Center posting form to submit information and links for your post. Posts have a limit of 300 words. Posts must be made on behalf of a company or organization, so you will need to create an organizational profile first. After finalizing your post, submit and pay.
Step 4: Review and approval
Once you submit and pay for your post, it will be reviewed by the Career Center staff. If your post conforms with Career Center posting and product guidelines, your post will be approved. Most posts are approved within 24-48 hours. (Please allow more time for posts submitted on weekends or US holidays.) Once your post is approved, it will become available on the frontend of the Career Center website. If your post does not conform to our posting and product guidelines, a member of the AMS staff will contact you with requests for revisions.
If you submit a post in error and wish to request a refund, please email your refund request to ams@amsmusicology.org within 24 hours of posting. Refunds will not be provided if requested after 24 hours.
