Harvard Belfer Center Postdocs
-
Serious question. How many of these jobs do you think are informally promised to people in advance, and to what degree is the whole application process a farce? I had a fellowship a few years back where I found out that I was the only random person to have gone through the actual application process. Everyone else had a friend on the faculty who had invited them to apply, meaning that the job was theirs provided they filled out an application.
In the case if Belfer Center, you get the position by having 2 degrees of separation or less from the faculty decision maker.

Who is the faculty decision maker(s)?

Nay this all you want, but watch who gets these postdocs.If you don’t know, that’s a bad sign for your chances.
