This week’s work is fueled by candy corn.

Come work with us in the Office of Digital Humanities as a Program Officer!

GS -12/13 | Closes 9/26

This job had to be re-issued, because of an unexpected SNAFU on the NEH's part last month. If you applied before, please consider applying again (it was us, not you).

Remember when applying for a federal job you have to craft a cover letter and resume in ways that are quite different from the academic and private sectors. Include everything and be specific!

* Explain what you did in each position to demonstrate how your activities and accomplishments match our job qualifications.
* Use that cover letter to tell us why you want to work in the ODH and to stand out among the sea of applications that we will receive.

Please follow the directions in the job ad about about what must be included in your resume, or your application may be rated as ineligible even if you have relevant experience.

Good luck and please share widely!

You'll either feel extremely heard, or it will open your eyes to what some of your (disproportionately female) coworkers struggle with on a regular basis.

🎉 🚨 Hooray! Congratulations to the NEH ODH awardees in the Dangers and Opportunities of Technology: Perspectives from the Humanities program, the Digital Humanities Advancement Grants program, and new directors for the Institutes for Advanced Topics in the Digital Humanities. (And kudos as well as to all of the other NEH grantees!)

And if you were one of the many peer reviewers for any of these programs-- thank you. The NEH could not do the work that we do without you.
