NOTES & QUERIES: I was Skype interviewed for this position but not invited to campus. It is December 22 today. Is it a lost cause?

I'm not sure, but I'm afraid it might be. I think they might have contacted all the people that they wanted to invite to campus interviews. I'm sorry.

Thank you, but how do you know? Also, do universities sometimes contact people lower on the list if their chosen candidates didn't work out? Kennesaw was my only hope.

- I am not the person who replied to your question, but this is my second year trying to get a TT position in French. From my experience, while this is unpredictable and it is possible that their primary candidates might not work out and they will contact long-listed ones, it is not very likely. With such a depressing job market, the best thing to do is not to place all your hope in one position and try to move on. More visiting positions should come out after the MLA, so this is definitely not the end. Additionally, the German Wiki has a Me Too alert about Kennesaw. I don't know anything about it, but maybe that is not the place you would want to work at anyway. Good luck.

NOTES:
 * I had a very short (13 minutes) pre-preliminary phone interview. With only one person and two questions: one about my experience in French-speaking countries and one about my religion. Based on my answer about religion, I don't think I will be hearing back from them...
 * I am not sure why my comment got deleted by the previous commenter, but I will repost. (11/1) Someone I know had an interview with them after the phone screening. It does say in their job application that they are lawfully permitted to consider religion as a selection criterion. I personally don’t apply to these positions since I know we will not be a good fit for each other.
