How it works

How to find adjunct teaching work on Facultique

One profile, instead of one application per posting. Department chairs come to you.

  1. Step 1: Upload your CV

    Add your CV and, if you like, your LinkedIn profile. Facultique drafts your profile from them. You add the classes you have taught, your location, availability and teaching formats.

  2. Step 2: Get verified

    Our team reviews your CV, LinkedIn and a 10-second intro video (your name and specialty). No lengthy interviews, and no chair sees you until you are verified.

  3. Step 3: Chairs find you

    Department chairs search by expertise and the classes you have taught. When one is interested, they send a chat request with their reason and a message.

  4. Step 4: You choose

    Accept to open a chat, and names and contact details unlock both ways. Not interested? Decline, with or without a reason. You are never obliged to reply.

Your privacy

You stay anonymous until you say yes

Chairs judge you on your expertise and teaching record, not your name. Your details unlock only when you accept a chat request, and only for that chair.

You see who is asking, with their institution, department, title, reason and message, before you decide. Just not their name until you accept.

What chairs see

  • Your qualifications and expertise
  • The classes you have taught
  • Where you earned your highest degree
  • Your general location and teaching formats
  • How fast you usually reply

Hidden until you accept

  • Your name and photo
  • Your intro video
  • Email, phone and other contact details
  • Institutions you have taught at, and your publications
  • Your CV (only our team sees it)

Why scholars use Facultique

Built around your time

Free, always

Scholars never pay, and Facultique never takes a cut of your pay. Departments cover our costs.

You decide who hears from you

Accept the requests you want and decline the rest. Nobody gets your contact details without your say-so.

One profile, many departments

Instead of tailoring an application to every posting, keep one profile current and let chairs come to you.

Fast replies stand out

Scholars who answer quickly earn a “fast responder” badge that chairs see when they search.

Teach your way

Choose your formats (in person, live online or self-paced online) and set where and when you are available.

Requests that say why

Every chat request comes with the chair's reason and a message, so you know what they are asking before you answer.

What to expect

  • Facultique is not a job board or an agency, and it can't promise offers. Each chair decides who to contact.
  • The department and you agree on pay, contract and paperwork directly.
  • Profiles are verified before chairs can find them, so submit a complete one: the classes you have taught matter most.

Our stance on AI

AI is a choice, never a requirement

AI is a useful tool that can make life easier, but no one should have to use it. On Facultique, it only runs when a scholar opts in.

Opt in, and pre-fill takes under a minute

Scholars who choose it can have AI read their CV and pre-fill their profile in under a minute. They check every field before anyone sees it.

Or leave AI out entirely

A scholar who enters their experience manually never has their data touch AI. Their CV is read only by our verification team.

Scholars' data stays safe

We keep scholars' data secure, use it only to run Facultique, and never sell it or use it for advertising. A person on our team, not AI, verifies every profile.

The details are in our Privacy Policy.

FAQ

Adjunct teaching work, your questions answered

How do I find adjunct teaching work without applying to job postings?
Create one profile on Facultique: upload your CV (and your LinkedIn profile, if you like) and we build the draft for you. Our team verifies it, and then department chairs at colleges and universities in the United States and Canada can find you by your expertise and the classes you have taught, and ask to chat. You hear from chairs instead of sending applications. Facultique is not a job board and can't promise offers; each chair decides who to contact.
Is Facultique free for scholars?
Yes, always. Scholars never pay, and Facultique never takes a cut of their pay. Departments cover our costs.
Who can see my name, photo and contact details?
Only our team, until you say yes. Chairs see your qualifications, expertise, classes taught and where you earned your highest degree. The institutions where you have taught and your publications stay hidden, and so do your name, photo, intro video and contact details, which unlock only when you accept a chair's chat request, and only for that chair. CVs are only ever seen by our team.
Do I have to reply to every chat request?
No. You see the chair's institution, department, title, reason and message first, and you choose whether to accept (with an optional first reply) or decline (with an optional reason). A request that goes unanswered expires after 5 days, and the chair isn't charged. Scholars who reply quickly earn a "fast responder" badge that chairs see.
How does verification work?
Our team reviews your CV, your LinkedIn profile and a 10-second intro video (your name and specialty) before any chair can find you. You can record the video in your browser, upload it, or link a YouTube, Vimeo or Loom video. There are no lengthy interviews, and we follow up personally only when something needs a closer look.
What do I need to get started?
A CV in PDF or Word format, a LinkedIn profile if you have one, and about two minutes to create an account with an email and password or a Microsoft or Google account. After that you finish your profile (classes you have taught, location, availability, teaching formats) and submit it for verification.
What is an adjunct, and what are sessional instructors?
Adjunct faculty (called adjunct instructors or adjunct professors in the US) and sessional instructors or contract faculty (the usual Canadian terms) are teachers hired by the course or by the term rather than into a permanent role. Many are working professionals, researchers or early-career academics who want to teach alongside other work. Facultique calls them scholars.
Where and how can I teach through Facultique?
Facultique covers colleges and universities in the United States and Canada. You choose which formats you offer: in person, live online or self-paced online. The department and you agree on pay, contract and paperwork directly; Facultique is not an employer or an agency.

Let the right departments find you.

Create your free profile in about two minutes: upload your CV, and we draft the rest. You stay anonymous until you accept a chat.
