To get you started here are two very useful resources:

Journal Citation Reports and Other Tools for Preparing Your Dossier

Don’t know the difference between an impact factor and an Eigenfactor? Not sure how to find out which journals in your field are the best? Then this workshop is for you. In this workshop faculty and graduate students will learn how to use Journal Citation Reports more effectively. Realizing that not every journal in the Journal Citation Reports, other tools will also be covered. These tools include Publish or Perish, Google Scholar, and WorldCat Identities. This workshop will be helpful for all disciplines.  The workshop will be on 02/10/20 from noon-1:00pm.  You can register here.
