Sorry - I call bs. Letters were requested automatically when I applied (based on interfolio), and why on earth would they be interested in transcripts at the shortlist stage? Also -- what committee gets to the shortlist stage 4 days after closing date?

yes, they required letters at time of application and I very much doubt they would ask transcripts.

yes, they required letters at time of application and I very much doubt they would ask transcripts. I actually went and checked the info. They asked for recommender info but not the letters, and they have said “in 2-3 days we will contact letter writers.” So I am guessing not getting that request means we are out.. |

I'm wondering if we're talking about the same position. Neither positions listed on the U of I website mention transcripts, and both say letters will be requested 2-3 days after applying (and they were requested in my case). Both positions closed on 10/15 so having a short list this early is also unlikely.

Based on insider sources, I can tell you that there is no shortlist yet. Probably not until last week of October/first week of November.

Thanks CuriousGrad. That makes much more sense.

Deadline was OCt-15, and all reference letters were due by Oct-22. So now we wait...(perhaps the person who knows the insider can give us an update this week?)

You shouldn't expect to hear anything until at least the end of next week and probably more likely the first week of November. Hang tight. I know the waiting game is brutal.

At the risk of expecting too much here, any chance the insider knows if the long-shortlist is almost completed??? We greatly appreciate your insights! :-)

Not sure. As far as I know, they're gonna go straight to finalists, so we won't know when they have the long-shortlist unless they request more materials. And it seems like finalists won't be decided until the second week of November now.
