Let me just say for the record (since it's my name at the bottom of the answer) that listing citations sounds like a terrible idea to me; this falls under Henry's heading about desperation. If you really think a committee will be impressed by your citation record, suggest to one of your recommenders that they mention it. Foreign languages also go under "not relevant to your professional life." Either the committee doesn't care, or it's going to need much more evidence than a line in your CV. | |

This is unnecessary if you are world-famous, and likely impossible if you are just starting out, but if you are somewhere in between it may be a good way to show a hiring committee that people are actually reading the stuff you publish and are taking it seriously. | |

| Oct 25, 2011 at 10:43 | comment | added | Yemon Choi | @Mark: the original post was actually by Ben Webster (yes, I dislike the prominent display of the latest editor, too, but we're stuck with the interface...) | |
