meowzers.

and @milara would join but I don't have facebook or twitter.

I am sorry you didn't get it....you were so close.

I would be interested.

and @whytrianglesi was also taken aback by my capability score. i have several publications including first-author, fellowships, scholarships, *shrugs*

Congratulations to everyone whose research was funded! My application was not funded: Committee 4A My score: 4.24 Applications:88 Fellowships Offered:18 (20.5%) Fellowships Not Offered: 70 (79.5%) Score of last funded application: 4.72

The times may have something to do with time zones, too.

@milara no, that is not too personal [for my standards]. i have never thought of the promise as anything but a supervisor driving home the point that the goal of a tenure-track position takes years to attain (if it happens at all) and that it's particularly important that marginalized people push through if they can. @DevsChicksame here.

Plan B is to do short-term contract work as a result of connections from current and past PDFs. I promised my graduate supervisor that I would keep trying for a tenure-track position for 4 years so I have a few more years of these types of applications ahead of me. Once those 4 years are up (and I expect I won't have a tenure-track position at that point, because....current market), I will be looking into industry-type jobs. I want some stability as I am hitting my mid-30s, would like my mental health to not decline this rapidly, etc etc.

My guess is Friday, too @milara. I also suspect they sent the email to ward off emails asking when the results are coming as we approach "the end of February". Schrödinger's cat of academia.....good luck to all!

@milara I would say 47k euros is very competitive on the canadian market. I left a PDF that paid approximately that much for a PDF that pays 45k CAD. The decision was not easy as it was a substantial pay cut, but the research is more aligned with my own agenda, so compromises had to be made. It is not easy and not everyone can afford that (frankly, I am not sure I can, but here we are). I agree with some of the other posts that SSHRC postdoc funding needs to increase.

Hi all! I have also submitted in Psychology. Good luck!
