How to look for a postdoc position in hep-th physics?

1008 views

What are helpful resources for finding the post-doc (and maybe for generality the PhD) positions in high-energy theoretical physics?

I believe that going through universities' websites one-by-one and looking for offers is not the optimal way, there must be some aggregators. There is a related question here https://physics.stackexchange.com/questions/1779/what-is-an-effective-way-to-search-for-post-doc-positions-in-physics/1782#1782 .

In part my problem is that now it is perhaps not the right time to look for a position, as most of them relevant for 2017 are already settled. For other people who may encounter this post at the right time there is a nice website https://itf.fys.kuleuven.be/postdoc-application/ which circulates your CV across many European universities (and they perfectly accept this). There are also job offers at http://www.slac.stanford.edu/spires/jobs/ . This in particular confirms that some offers are available throughout the year. However, I do not know how representative the inSpires database is of all the offers available.

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

The site https://academicjobsonline.org/ajo seems to be popular and used now, plus it promises a convenient application procedure. Worth checking out.
