The new PhilJobs website has been progressing in leaps and bounds. It now has 250 active listings for 315 jobs in philosophy (some listings advertise multiple jobs). The listings now include both full ads submitted directly by employers and "stubs" for jobs advertised in other venues (such as Jobs for Philosophers) containing the basic information about the positions (institution, position, AOS, AOC, deadline) and links to venues with full information. As a result the site now has listings for all jobs advertised in the major venues for philosophy jobs.
PhilJobs has also introduced a "My Jobs" feature, where users can "save" some jobs to their personal "My Jobs" page. Users can also "exclude" other jobs in which they are not interested, so they do not come up in future searches. We hope that these features are useful for job candidates in keeping track of the jobs in which they are most interested.
See the PhilJobs FAQ (especially the last four items there) for more details on these new features.
