Overview

The Auburn University Libraries invites applications for a Graduate Student Assistant position in Digital Humanities for Fall 2026 and Spring 2027. This is an excellent opportunity for students interested in combining literary scholarship with digital methodologies. The selected candidate will contribute to the Alabama Authors of the 19th and 20th Centuries and the newly created Alabama Cookbooks digital projects, gaining valuable research experience while also learning from established models such as the George Eliot Archive and its sister projects.

This role provides valuable experience in research, technical writing, and digital content management, which are key skills for careers in academic research, publishing, library and information science, and digital project management.

Why it works

3×

more interviews than doing it yourself with ChatGPT.

ChatGPT writes a CV and never learns what happened to it. We see every reply. For each CV we know:

  • How it was written, and how the review scored it
  • When we applied, and how long after the posting went up
  • Which posting, which company, which city
  • Who got the interview, and who heard nothing

That is how we know which CVs get called.
