The LINGUIST List strongly encourages employers to use
non-discriminatory standards in hiring policy. In particular we urge
that employers do not discriminate on the grounds of race, ethnicity,
nationality, age, religion, gender, or sexual orientation. However, we
have no means of enforcing these standards.

Job seekers should pay special attention to language in ads regarding
employment requirements and are encouraged to consult our international
employment page http://linguistlist.org/jobnet.html.

This page has been set up so that people can report on the employment
standards of various countries.

We are looking for a dynamic research scientist with expertise in


 SPEECH RECOGNITION and DIALOGUE PROCESSING


to help start a new research project at the recently formed Institute
for Creative Technologies of the University of Southern California in
Marina del Rey, CA.


The system being built incorporates speech processing, dialogue,
agent-based reasoning, virtual reality, and sophisticated immersive multimedia
displays in a large-scale new project that has links to research at several USC
centers including the Information Sciences Institute (ISI) and the
Integrated Media Systems Center (IMSC).


The candidate should have a Ph.D. in either Speech Recognition or
Natural Language Processing (with emphasis on discourse) and strong abilities
in the both areas.  The successful candidate may choose to join the Computer
Science faculty of USC as well, and eventually supervise graduate
students in addition to performing the research.
