Over The Early Career Researcher Podcast

The Early Career Researcher podcast aims to provide a regular forum for discussion on all things relating to the life and work of Early Career Researchers working in the Humanities. Join us for weekly advice on applying for research jobs, careers advice, help with job applications, and support on issues such as mental health and wellbeing. We are: Charlie (works as a lecturer on a fixed-term contract, with eight years of lecturing experience in the UK); Rachael (several years of experience in academic and related fields, including lecturing and research administration, currently working as a postdoctoral researcher); and Olivia (several years of work experience prior to beginning a PhD, which she is currently in the final year of writing). Episodes are accompanied by our blogs, which summarise the topics discussed in the podcast, and provide useful links on where to get further information and help.

Episode 36: Visiting Fellowships

Welcome back to the pod! After a bit of a break, Charlie and Rosie are back with our new guest Ben, to talk about Visiting Fellowships. Together, we discuss: 1) what Visiting Fellowships are (spoiler: a period of time spent away from your home institution, travelling to a special place to conduct research with materials that you cannot access at home), 2) how the application process works, 3) what makes a good/bad application, and 4) how to make the most of a Fellowship if you're lucky enough to gain one. Along the way, we reflect on our own experiences of some of the most enjoyable times of our research careers. If you enjoyed this episode then do try some of our others, give us a follow on your podcast platform, and follow us on social media (@ECRPodcasters). Thank you for listening!

Episode 35 How to Index Your Book

Charlie and Rosie return in our latet episode, where we are joined by our mutual friend, Rob, to talk about a not very exciting but very important job: making an index for your book. Anyone who has written their own book or anyone who has produced an edited volume, will be familiar with the dreaded INDEX. These days, authors and editors are usually responsible for producing their own index. This may sound like a simple task, but you may be surprised at how tricky and time consuming it can actually be. As academics, we aren’t always aware of what an index is actually for and what role it plays in the publishing process. So we thought we would ask Rosie (our resident publishing expert), some questions, including: - What is an index FOR? - How does the process of making an index work? (What do publishers ask for, and do they give any help?) - What makes a good and a bad index for a publisher? - How have we, as academics, found the process of prudicing our index? Please do 'like', and follow/subscribe to the podcast, and feel free to offer your feedback and comments (reviews increase our visibility, so please do leave us your thoughts).

Episode 34: Copyediting in Academia (and how to get into it)

In this episode, Charlie an Rosie are joined by our new guest Jo, who had a successful academic career before starting her own business as a freelance copyeditor. Anybody who wants to publish academic research will probably at some point find themselves working with a copyeditor. The copyeditor has traditionally been an essential toolkit in academic publishing – they are the person who takes your text and polishes it up, gets rid of embarrassing typos, and makes sure your document makes sense. In this episode, we dive a bit more deeply into this role, and talk about what copyediting really involves, and the value it brings. But we also wanted to talk about copyediting as a career, in case this is something that you might be thinking about. We also talk about the state of the field, and if AI can ever really replace the human touch...

Episode 33: Neurodiversity in Academia

This week, Charlie and Rosie are joined by new friends Jo and Ben, as we discuss the HUGE and multifaceted topic of neurodivertiy in academia. Jo, Ben, and Charlie reflect on our experiences of late diagnosis, managing the impact of our spicy brains on our academic lives, working relationships, and our lives outside of work, and then we give some advice and definitions on where to get support if you think you may need help on topics relating to this week's subject. Then we hear more about Ben and Jo's amazing work for the UK UCU (Universities and Colleges Union) specificaly relating to the links between casualisation and neurodiversity in academia. We hope you like our episode: give us a follow, subscribe, or write us a review!
