It is important to clarify which profile you are looking for and what is important for yourself. This can include questions like: Is there a specific research area that you (feel you) belong to? Are there chairs/departments in your area that cover your research area? Can you somehow forecast the number of planned professorships over the next few years? How do job profiles in current advertisements look like?
The next step is to prepare for the appointment process: what does the process look like, the legal framework, the analysis of advertisements, selection of topic for the presentation in front of the appointment committee, interview with the appointments committee, developing negotiation strategies etc.
