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 researcher with an MA or equivalent degree for

Factors". This is a half-time position for two years.

Familiarity with pragmatics, especially speech act theory, and
conversation analysis is required; also, good knowledge of German.
Knowledge of aviation and aviation terminology is a bonus. The goal of
the project is to transcribe video recordings of cockpit communication
on simulation flights and analyze selected parts of it in terms of
their speech acts and conversational structure.
