Let the hunger games begin.
Accounting 2020-21 Job Market

I'd be petrified to be on the market this year. Big question is whether "hiring freeze" means no net new hiring or no hiring at all. If it's just no net new hiring, but replacements are allowed, then things aren't that bad. But if hiring freeze means no new hiring of any TT faculty, it's a nightmare.

Probably means "no hiring at all". But I believe there is large variance as to what schools are doing, and will be doing when corona passes.

Schools are going to be doing massive budget cuts. Don’t count on many TT lines until endowments recover, enrollments increase, and exec ed stabilizes.
Plus it's likely that salaries and career prospects will never recover (tenure track -> perma adjuct track unless a star)
