Introduction
To our customers,
From all of us at HigherEdJobs, we¡¯d like to thank you again for using our service to attract the very best higher
education faculty and administrators. HigherEdJobs was fortunate to enjoy yet another record-breaking year in
2012. We surpassed many milestones last year, including:
? 100,000 Jobs Posted - For the first time in company history, HigherEdJobs surpassed 100,000 new jobs
posted for a calendar year. At any given time, we now list around 20,000 jobs from colleges and universities
across the U.S. and around the world.
? 5,300+ Colleges and Universities ¨C Over 5,300 colleges and universities recruited with HigherEdJobs
during 2012, smashing our previous record of 4,700. Whether you are one of the thousands who have
recruited with HigherEdJobs for years or if you are new to our service, it is our honor to serve you.
? 98.9% Would Recommend HigherEdJobs ¨C I¡¯d have to say one of more gratifying moments of 2012
was seeing that 98.9% of the respondents to our customer survey would ¡°recommend HigherEdJobs to a
colleague who needed to advertise a higher education job opening.¡± We work hard to make HigherEdJobs
not only your most effective recruitment tool but your favorite company to work with. Seeing this sort of
response from you, our customers, makes all the effort worthwhile.
As great as 2012 was, however, it¡¯s time for us to roll up our sleeves, get to work, and make sure 2013 is our best
year yet. We have big things in store for 2013 to help make HigherEdJobs even more effective. An overwhelming
majority of the respondents to our 2012 customer survey (see pages 6-12) indicated that, compared to other
sources, HigherEdJobs attracted the best candidates, provided the best value, was the easiest to use, and provided
the best customer service. As gratifying as that was, however, we remain committed to improving HigherEdJobs
and making it even better.
Best wishes for a meaningful and productive 2013!
Sincerely,
John Ikenberry, Ph.D.
President and Co-Founder
