By now the APA interviews are in the books, so analysis of _Jobs for Philosophers_ is a little out-of-date. But hopefully this is still of some historical interest going forward.

The most striking thing to me was the paucity of jobs in logic. I don’t know if that’s compensated for by people using open area searches to hire logic people, or if departments are thinking that logic is not a pressing need, or it is simply random variation. Apart from that the numbers are pretty much as you might have expected.
