[Maarten Lemmens]

!!! URGENT JOB NOTICE !!!
*Answer needed before Oct. 24, 16h00 (Paris time) 2013 (see below)*

http://www.univ-lille3.fr

Pending approval, The University of Lille 3, France, will have two, 
possibly three tenure track positions available track position in 
English Linguistics, with the following profile:
1) English linguistics (preference for, but not exclusion to, syntax or 
diachrony)
2) English linguistics and didactics (ESL) and/or language acquisition
3) English linguistics and translation (French)

REQUIREMENTS
The candidate must hold a PhD, or be sure to have a PhD in hand by
December 1, 2013 at the latest, in the field of English Linguistics (or
comparable, with good command of English) and have demonstrated
expertise in this domain, through quality publication and solid teaching 
experience. The ideal candidate will engage in the further expansion of 
the STL research center at the Université Lille 3 
(http://stl.recherche.univ-lille3.fr/).

Normal teaching load is about 7 hours per week (2 terms of 13 weeks) and 
concerns English linguistics classes, or possibly also English for
non-specialists (ESP) (mostly undergraduate level), and translation (for 
position 3).

Hiring will be done at the level of "Maître de Conférences" (MCF) with a 
monthly salary scale ranging from 2,058 to 3,722 (before taxes and
withholdings), depending on the number of years of experience at MCF
level (i.e. most positions for which a PhD is required).
Initially, there is no requirement that candidates speak French
fluently, but it is preferred that they at least have a sufficient
working knowledge to understand the procedures. The successful candidate 
must be authorized to work legally in France by Sept. 1, 2014, the start 
date of the position.

PROCEDURE
Candidates who are interested in this position should contact Maarten
Lemmens (maarten.lemmens at univ-lille3.fr) and Ilse Depaetere 
(ilse.depraetere at univ-lille3.fr) AS SOON AS POSSIBLE; please
send along your CV too.
Moreover, the first official step for candidates is to register on-line 
for the QUALIFICATION by *October 24, 2011, 16:00* (Parisian time) on 
the official site of the Ministère de
l'Enseignement supérieur et de la Recherche;
https://www.galaxie.enseignementsup-recherche.gouv.fr/ensup/candidats.html
(on the right, you'll also see a link to the "calendrier" with important 
dates for the qualification MCF).

You choose to qualify in "section 11" (anglais) and you may additionally 
ask for a qualification in section 7 (sciences de language). Many people 
do ask for a double qualification to be safe.

The idea is that you need to get the qualification MCF before you can
apply for a job as an MCF. People who hold a position of rank similar to 
MCF could apply without the qualification, but it is safer to follow the 
usual official procedure, which is open to all nationalities anyway.

This is not yet the final application (will be in December or January), 
but without the online registration you cannot proceed to the next level 
(sending your file to the two evaluators that have been designated to you).

Do not hesitate to contact Maarten Lemmens
or Ilse Depraetere should you have any questions on this
position or on the official procedure. M. Lemmens will be traveling 
(China) the next two weeks, so may have limited access to internet.
