H-Net Job guide is an excellent resource for advertising your job opening. H-Net reaches over 115,000 scholars and educators around the world through its 150+ mailing lists. The lists, focused on particular subject areas, function as electronic networks, linking professors, teachers and students in an egalitarian exchange of ideas and materials. A weekly index of job advertisements is distributed to the H-Net membership. H-Net's World Wide Web sites conduct over 1 million web transactions per week from over 75,000 distinct hosts around the world. The Job Guide itself receives 50,000 page views per week. Thus advertising with H-Net Job Guide allows both for wide distribution of your advertisement and for finding your target audience.
The Job Guide is a service to our members and the academic community at large. To offset the continuing and considerable costs of maintaining, administering, and improving the H-Net Job Guide, a nominal payment of $95 (US currency) is expected.
Fee waivers: Under rare and extreme fiscal or other circumstances, a fee waiver may be granted. These decisions are made on a case by case basis. Applicants must understand that the cyclical budgetary and fiscal shortfalls common in higher education -- including the absence of an advertising budget for new positions -- are not normally a qualification for a fee waiver. H-Net also understands that unbudgeted positions can open late in the hiring season, but the frequency of this occurrence makes the granting of waivers for that reason too expensive for us to sustain.
