  1. Oh no! Hope! I am going to try to forget about the waitlist business for now. For anyone still following this thread, I am glad to report I bounced back from the disappointment and sadness of the rejection and kept writing in the time since. I'm in a couple of writing groups and also looking to connect with upper year PhD candidates taking 8+ years to finish coping with family matters, illness, and mental health. If there's channels like that on the slack @milara I will consider applying! I am not really active on linkedin, however. It's my first year dipping my toes in the job market.
  2. First time poster here. I'm interested in connecting with people on the job market especially in areas related to disability, health policy, and socio-legal studies. I'm also interested in finding peer support on the changing job market at large. For the entirety of grad school I had negative impressions of the job market, but with COVID it appears to be even worse. I was a first time applicant and I was not funded. Committee 3, scored 5.03 overall, the last funded score as stated in an earlier post was 5.06. I ranked 31/119 and 24 applicants were funded. I am not holding my breath for a waitlist. I was originally hopeful about my application. I held SSHRC during MA and PhD as well as other fellowships. I have multiple peer-reviewed publications under my belt. My referees also felt my proposal was strong. However, I have always doubted my "capability" because of my lengthy timeline towards degree due to some health disruptions. I also have a very interdisciplinary background that doesn't fit neatly into any capital D Discipline. My work is equally conceptual and empirical. My individual scores indicated I could work on feasibility, which I'll keep in mind going forward. It is incredibly frustrating that I might have been funded in another year. At the same time, I have not yet defended and imagine those a year or two out have more qualifications. Are there competition statistics on scores from previous years outside of your personal knowledge from previous rejections?
