The 2011-2012 Bioanthropology job market is shaping up to be pretty decent. There are many places to look for jobs and you *should* look in multiple places because not all jobs are cross-listed. Here are my recommendations:
The Anthropology job wiki. A perennial favorite of the BANDIT blog, not only does the wiki provide a handy digest of the current market, but you can find out from other users about information requests, interview invitations, job offers and rejections. It can be a little painful to follow the wiki because of that, but considering the frustrating silence so common to so many search committees, it can be a relief.
The job postings page on the AAPA website. This is pretty good and often includes postdoc opportunities.
For the biological anthropologist with training and teaching experience in anatomy, the classifiedsat the American Association of Anatomists might point you to an interesting opportunity.
The career center on the American Anthropological Association website lists several bioanthropology jobs.
Through the University of Wisconsin, you can access Primate Jobs to look for, you know, primate jobs.
If you're willing to do a little more digging (tip: if you want a job you should be willing to do a little more digging!) search anthropology, biology, and psychology postings at the Chronicle of Higher Education.
I'll also continue to post individual job listings that BANDIT readers forward to me. Good luck to all searchers!
