University of Nebraska-Lincon what the??

[anon]

I just tried submitting my application materials for the UN-Lincoln job and the website is impossible. Nowhere does it provide an opportunity to upload vitaes, writing samples, etc. And then when you confirm that your basic information is correct, it's all "You have applied for this job now get the f**k out of here." What the heck is going on?

Anyone else have the same issue with this website? Anyone figure out how to get it to let you upload your materials and want to share? I know that it's a sociologist-eat-sociologist world out there but help a sucker out!

[anon]

Also, I know it's spelled Lincoln, not Lincon. Shoot me.

[derrrr]

Okay, ignore that post. I need to read directions more carefully apparently. But it should be noted that this process is ridiculous and I feel no shame for getting turned about.

I haven't applied yet, but I understand your confusion. The directions in the job ad are different from those in the online application, as far as I can tell.

[confusion]

The confusion is related to a requirement of the creation of a separate "administrative form" on the university human relations web site. The applications materials are to be submitted to the e-mail address provided in the ASA job bank listing.
