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 at http://linguistlist.org/jobs/jobnet.html. This page has been
set up so that people can report on the employment standards of various countries.

Description:
The Department of Linguistics, Faculty of Liberal Arts, Thammasat

The first two positions are open to non-Thai nationals with strong academic
records in the fields of General Linguistics or Applied Linguistics. The
starting monthly salary for both positions is 23,370 baht, plus a housing
allowance of 8,000 baht per month. We especially invite applications from
MA or PhD holders who are native speakers of American English, Canadian
English, British English, Australian English, or New Zealand English.
As for the third position, we are looking to hire a Thai national who
graduated with either an MA or a PhD with a specialization in Syntax or
Morphology. The rates of starting salary for MA and PhD holders are 13,450
baht per month and 18,310 baht per month, respectively.
Not only are prospective candidates anticipated to show that they have good
interpersonal and cross-cultural communication skills, they are also
expected to possess an ability to work individually and in a team, and
familiarity with Thai work settings. Successful candidates will teach up to
three courses per semester at both undergraduate and graduate levels, and
will provide assistance in administrative matters and in the editorial team
of the Department's bi-annually published Journal of Language and Linguistics.
Application screening involves document check-up, followed by a
face-to-face or telephone interview (in either case, will be arranged only
at the applicant's own expense). The three positions will remain open until
filled. The starting date of employment is October or November 2008.
Initial enquiries could be made by e-mail or telephone. For ease of filing,
it is recommended that you send an application pack to us in hard copy. To

Successful candidates are informed that, in addition to a document check-up
