application oops!

Just got an e-mail from a school, noting receipt of my application but also this:

We thank you for your interest, but ask you to be aware that the opening is for a senior level position and not for an Assistant Professor as noted in your application.

I totally read over the line in the job ad about "tenured level" candidate and thought it said "tenure-track position." Ha ha.

Too funny! Imagine they also hadn't realizes you'd misread it, and called you in for an interview!

That would be funny. Though of course a tenured professor's c.v. would look very different from mine, leading me to question whether or not the department would be a good place to work!
