What are the best websites for jobs postings in religion?

I'll also add http://academicjobs.wikia.com/wiki/Religious_Studies_2017-2018. There's a dedicated, though incredibly small, collection of editors that oversee the postings but they pull them from multiple sources then repost them so user can avoid AAR/SBL's paywall, and having to navigate multiple sites.

Listings are broken down by full-time, post-doc, etc. There's also opportunities for those interviewing for a certain position to upload notes, questions asked if they're interviewed, etc.

Self-reporting but at the bottom there's a place for applicants to list their field so you can size up competition. The 2017-8 hiring cycle is just getting started so there's minimal information but you can look at last year's to get an idea and it's as you'd expect - Americanists, Biblical Studies, and religious history make up a sizable amount.

I think the last two years ~40 people uploaded data so the user base is small so keep that in mind too!

You need a combination of everything listed above. The wiki is, I think, the most comprehensive, but it doesn't always update as quickly as the other sites since its self-reported as xypathos points out. I like the Chronicle's database for ease of use and narrowing down the results to see exactly what I'm looking for. https://chroniclevitae.com/job_search/new

If you're willing to search for community college jobs, many CC districts/regions have their own databases. In California, for instance, there's the CCC Registry: https://www.cccregistry.org/jobs/index.aspx Not sure if other states have something similar, but I'm sure it'd be easy to figure it out.
