Reaching the Profession: The Locations of the Rhetoric and Composition Job Market

Caroline Dadas

Abstract

Based on interviews with fifty-seven scholars in rhetoric and composition, this article addresses multiple topics in relation to the job search process. I emphasize the need for a more critical examination of job market procedures field-wide, taking into consideration the ways in which hiring committees might be unknowingly enacting exclusionary practices.
