[IISE Faculty List] Fwd: Job Market Showcase track at the 2025 INFORMS Annual Meeting in Atlanta

[Julie Swann]

IE and OR folks:

Please see the announcement of the job market technical program for the
INFORMS conference in October. Please please forward it to your upcoming
graduates.

I think there are 300+ PhD students who are graduating and on the market in
October. This is an extraordinary opportunity for them to be highlighted
and visible to academic and industry employers in consolidated sessions
organized by area. Don't let your students or your university be left out
of this opportunity.

The deadline for full consideration is *March 28*. Late applications will
be considered space permitting.  The chairs of the program are listed
below.

Best,
Julie Swann

We are inviting applications for the new *Job Market Showcase track *at the
2025 INFORMS Annual Meeting in Atlanta from October 26-29, 2025.  This is a
new INFORMS initiative to centrally organize the scheduling of technical
talks by senior PhD students, post-docs, and recent PhD graduates who
anticipate searching for a job during the 2025-2026 school year.  The track
will be organized with high visibility at the 2025 INFORMS Annual Meeting,
with four talks per session scheduled primarily on Sunday through Tuesday
morning of the conference, to make it easy for potential employers to
attend talks by job candidates.

To be eligible, an applicant must:

1. Be a current member of INFORMS,

2. Be a current post-doc or PhD student (with anticipated completion date
by summer 2026), or received PhD degree within the past 2 years (i.e., not
prior to 2023),

3. Expect to be searching for an academic or industry job during the
2025-2026 school year,

4. Agree to adhere to the INFORMS Annual Meeting one-talk policy.  That is,
per Annual Meeting rules, a speaker in the Job Market Showcase track may
not be a speaker on another technical talk at the conference.  However, Job
Market Showcase participants may submit their work to poster sessions at
the Annual Meeting.



*Applications are due by March 28, 2025*, but we intend to accept
participants on a rolling basis before the deadline.  We anticipate
including all applicants in this track who apply by the deadline and meet
eligibility requirements. Late applicants who meet eligibility requirements
will be considered, space permitting.

To apply, an interested INFORMS member should fill out the form linked
below.  The form asks several questions about the registrant to verify
eligibility, asks for a supervisor's contact information, and asks for a
brief bio and description of the proposed talk for the purpose of grouping
talks into meaningful sessions.  The co-chairs of the track will contact
supervisors to verify eligibility.

Questions should be directed to the track co-chairs Laura Albert, Adam
Mersereau, and Ruben Proano at JobTalks at informs.org.
