Placement Timeline

Current and forthcoming actions and deadlines:

Early Nov	MAILING OF APPLICATION PACKETS: Your applications (based on JOE listings) should be mailed, ideally, on November 1, but no later than November 15. Each day's delay beyond November 15 will cost you interviews.
Dec 2	PLACEMENT MEETING 5PM 597 Evans: on using online scheduling system for interviews at AEA meetings.
Dec 3	PLACEMENT MEETING 5PM 597 Evans: Interviews
Dec	SCHEDULE INTERVIEWS: Most students should accept all interviews offered. The ideal number is 12-20. You can go above 20 if you are able to schedule many of them on January 2 and January 5. If you reach 12 interviews early in the process, discuss strategy for accepting additional interviews with the Placement Officer. It is fine to politely decline an interview if your schedule is full, but there is no polite way to cancel an interview once you have scheduled it. Allow sufficient time between interviews: the minimum is 15 minutes if they are in the same hotel, longer if you must travel from one hotel to another.
Dec 7-11	MOCK INTERVIEWS
Dec 9	PLACEMENT MEETING 5PM 597 Evans: Fly-backs
Late Dec	Deadline TBA to enter AEA interview schedule onto online scheduling system.
