ShovelBums Fee Change Effective April 5th 2011 |
|
After consulting with the users of ShovelBums I am implementing a fee change effective April 5th 2011 as detailed in this message to the 15,000+ member of ShovelBums. The new fee for posting a job will be $100 per job advertistement/job class (this is 1/4 the price of an advertisement on Monster.com). For example:
- If you advertise for 20 Archaeology Field Technicians the fee is $100
- If you advertise for 20 Archaeology Field Technicians and 3 Crew Chiefs, and 1 Principal Investigator the fee is $300.
- "Cattle Calls" (i.e. an add that reads like "We need a bunch of field people for a lot of projects in several states this summer") will be billed on a case by case basis
- Note: It is much better for you and the members to have a clear subject to your message detailing what positions you have available. You won't be charged anything extra for splitting your advertisement into multiple postings and it makes it easier for your intended audience to see what you want AND to share your add with their personal network.
Best,
R. Joe

Archaeology Field Schools 2012 |
|
The 2012 Archaeology/Anthropology Field School Directory is now open for entries! You can include up to 10 images plus an icon and logo with your entry. I will be sending out updated versions of the Archaeology/Anthropology Field School Directory twice month to the 15,000 members of ShovelBums. The DEADLINE for entry in the 1st edition is January 31.
There is a $25 fee for listing field schools (some have suggested I raise it to $50, but I will hold it at $25 for 2011). But here is the deal: If you are from a project/institution that is strapped for cash go ahead and submit your field school and then drop me a note and we can work something out. While I need to make a living, it is more important for the students to know about your field school opportunity. Bad business model, but good for the students, and the students are what it is all about.
Best,
R. Joe |

How (and why) to submit your Archaeology, Anthropology or Cultural Resource Management job to ShovelBums (Hint: Because it works!) |
|
When you submit an Archaeology or Anthropology teaching position or Cultural Resource Management job to ShovelBums you reach over 15,000 professional archaeologists immediately! It is easy (well kind of), read on: Also read on for important information about the fees (below) for posting on ShovelBums.
Short Version:
What you need to do first is Join the ShovelBums mailing list. To prevent spam to the list members only members are able to post. It is important to note that the mailing list is maintained on a different website than ShovelBums.org (where you are right now). This means that when you register here, on ShovelBums.org you are not registered to send a job advertisement out. For your security I use YahooGroups to host the mailing list, trust me, this is a good thing.
