About/FAQ

What is the HEP postdoc rumor mill?

This is a page where people may submit rumors regarding postdoc job offers. This information can help facilitate the postdoc market and optimize the matching of applicants with institutions.

I saw my name on the rumor mill, but I didn't send in the rumor. Can you tell me who sent in the rumor?

No. All rumors are anonymous (hence the YMMV!).

Can you take my name off the site?

Yes, certainly. You can request the administrator to remove your name from the site.

Can you post my postdoc job opening?

No, sorry. We do not post job openings on this site, but instead recommend AcademicJobsOnline and Inspire-HEP jobs as the most visible resources to advertise your postdoc opening.

Who is behind this site?

A group of individuals who wanted to step in after the original HEP postdoc rumor mill stopped updating unexpectedly during the 2012 postdoc hiring season. This new site's permanent administrator is Felix Yu, who can be contacted directly at yu001_at_uni-mainz.de .
