Resources for the marketing academic job market
There are some guides and listing sites for the marketing academic job market on this page. The American Marketing Association (AMA) has an official guidebook from prominent marketing scholars about transitioning from doctoral student to marketing professor. Moreover, there are personal guides from scholars, such as Dr. Gijs Overgoor and Dr. Martina Pocchiari. I want to thank all these scholars for taking the time to share their advice, experiences, and resources! Below the guides are popular sites where marketing academic jobs are listed. I'm always updating this page, so I’d love it if you could share any resources you’ve found helpful!
Wishing you all the best as you enter the job market. I hope you find an academic home that really values and inspires you. Be kind to yourself and lean on your community—mentors, friends, family.
