Interfolio Faculty Search

Faculty-oriented platform for academic recruitment

Make recruitment at your school more transparent, equitable, and efficient.

Interfolio Faculty Search is a simple, secure platform that makes workflows and collaboration around recruitment more effective and productive. Built for shared governance, Interfolio is mindful of the academic work cycle and intuitive for committee members.

Focused Committee Work

With practical tools for review and organization, Interfolio enables your search committees to spend their time evaluating excellent candidates and their work, instead of eating up time just accessing files and keeping track of notes.

Efficient Administrative Time

With Interfolio as your dedicated recruitment system, your academic staff gain operational efficiency and usable tools for organization, communication, and reporting. Staff can focus on giving faculty the assistance they need.

Delivering on Diversity

If you use Interfolio for your academic searches, you’ll collect Equal Employment Opportunity data on 100% of applicants through the system, and enable authorized users to study it before, during, and after searches. It’s a practical tool to faculty diversity commitments into reality.

Equity and Consistency

Interfolio Faculty Search gives you a tangible system to ensure all the academic units at your institution are using consistent language, criteria, forms, and procedures where required. Spot disparities in process, base policies on strong evidence, and keep committees accountable.

Positive Applicant Experience

Interfolio makes assembling and submitting an academic application clear and easy for the applicant, including the process of requesting and attaching confidential letters—signaling to competitive scholars (and their letter writers) that you care about their needs from minute one.
