Who We Are
-
Faculty Job Tools is founded and led by Dr. Dani Babb — the original pioneer in online professor job placement, and the author of the Make Money Teaching Online book series. Since 2003, Dr. Babb and her team have helped tens of thousands of faculty members find teaching positions, navigate hiring committees, and build academic careers that fit their lives.

Our team of educators and hiring experts provides personalized job application services, custom job leads, and real-world guidance built on more than two decades of experience. We make the academic job search clear, personal, and effective — for every client we serve, at every career stage. Faculty Job Tools is Dr. Babb's current company and the home of all her active work in faculty career placement.
The Name You Trust, The Results You Need.
I founded Faculty Job Tools with a singular mission: to provide the most advanced, personalized career support for the modern academic. As the original pioneer in professor job placement, I know that the academic landscape has changed—and your strategy must change with it.
While my past ventures helped shape the industry, Faculty Job Tools is where my latest innovations, current networks, and decades of PhD-level expertise live today. When you work with us, you are getting the direct benefit of the 'Babb Method'— a proven approach to navigating higher education hiring that I have refined over 20 years. Don't just find a job; find the right placement for your career.
There are other services that claim to help professors find teaching jobs. Faculty Job Tools is different in one fundamental way: Dr. Dani Babb built this category. Since 2003 — before anyone else was doing this — she has been helping educators navigate the academic job market, writing CVs, sourcing leads, and submitting applications on behalf of faculty at every career stage. The Babb Method is a two-decade-tested system built from real hiring intelligence gathered directly from deans, department chairs, and hiring committees across the country. When you work with Faculty Job Tools, you work with the team that created the playbook everyone else is copying.

The Babb Advantage
The Original
Dr. Dani Babb launched the first-ever professor job placement service in 2003. Before Faculty Job Tools, there was no structured service helping faculty find online teaching positions. Every competitor you see today built their model after hers.
Insider Intelligence
Dr. Babb regularly interviews deans, department chairs, and hiring managers to understand exactly what they look for. That intelligence is built directly into every CV, cover letter, and coaching session we provide.
Direct Access
When you work with Faculty Job Tools, you work with Dr. Babb and her named team — not an anonymous platform. Real people, real credentials, real results.
