Did you get the job?? 😁 Please say yes.

Update-Update! It took a bit longer than they thought, and I followed up when I found out I’m getting published internationally for the 2nd time--they emailed today and offered me the position! **I wouldn’t have it if it wasn’t for you, Tara. Blessings and all good health to you for sharing these things with us! 🙏🏽🤲🏽🌽 Update: I’ve just had another academic interview ( not sure how many this makes) but I came back and watched this again, took notes, wrote them out in an easy-to-read cheat sheet with your explanation of what they wanted, then went back to their website and read extensively (about 3 times), downloaded-printed-and referred to their document on expectations for teaching staff, wrote down the names of the degrees at the small satellite campus where I’ll be working if I get the position, and then printed out a list of my 5 questions with room to take notes underneath each. One of my questions came from another video of yours: I asked if the part-time teaching staff is expected to help with grant seeking (to help potential grantors understand what an excellent investment the college would be for their resources). I thought it went very well. I’ll know Friday. They have one other person to interview for the position. 🤞🏽🙏🏽 Thank you for these invaluable videos, @Office of Graduate Research Flinders University. They asked me all 12 questions on their form, and a few others that came to mind, and the Zoom interview took a full hour.

I cannot express how much I appreciate this when it's my time for job interview. Thanks so very much for your kind sharing, Professor!

I have an interview for a TA role tomorrow and this video has offered massive insight! Thanks Tara. By the way, you have a profoundly expressive face and voice and you use it so well to create excitement while communicating! That is so fantastic!

Thank you so much, you deserve all the respect in the world. So much to learn from your vlogs.

I have been a professional staff member within HE in the US for over 15 years and am finishing up my doctorate next spring. While I am no spring chicken I am preparing for my first faculty interview and this video has just energized me! What an incredible asset! Thanks so much.

Tara, I absolutely love your personality, impeccable presentation and enunciation skills. I strive to be someone like you.

Every time I have an important interview, I will come back to this handy and informative video. Thank you very much for the useful contents which give me refresh insights and innovative ideas every time!

Ah, I see where I could have answered better. Great points. I’ll have to rewatch and take notes (it’s right before bedtime, here).

Thank you so much! This has been the most helpful video I have found. You are inspirational and have helped me to feel more at ease with answering these questions. I often know I have the experience and expertise but often talk for too long or go off in a tangent. Thank you!

I have a teaching demo and interview tomorrow. A few months back, I watched your videos while waiting for my grad school admissions results. I got in. I hope I do well tomorrow. I have a horde of hornets in my stomach.

This is really great advice. I appreciate how you clump the questions into categories.

I have an interview tomorrow and came across this blog and it was so helpful. I will be preparing today using this. I still cant believe the question that the VC asked! I love how you have structured the interview, and also given the last question which I always struggle with about having any question about the institution. :) That was so helpful! I will keep you posted :)

Have my first interview this week, very thankful for the advice! Best video on this topic hands down, not even close

Wow, that's love! Truly!

You are such an inspiring person! Best wishes from the Netherlands!

You are great to listen to. Great advice. x

Amazing! Thank you so much, Tara! These were incredibly useful tips! Regards from Chicago!

This was extremely helpful. I just still can’t believe you were asked that horrible question related to the ex husband. Just horrifying!

Hello! I am on the final year of my PhD studies and already submitted my application to 4 universities in 3 countries. Your tips are very useful and hope to maximize them when it is time for me to be interviewed. :)

Your advice is the unfair advantage I had in the job interview. I nailed it. You are Awesome. Thank you!

I want to thank you for this clear explanation Tara. Am please to the way you communicate. I want to learn how to communicate very well too.

Thank you for sharing your experience!

Thank you very much! I really enjoying your videos!

What an engaging and informative video. Thank you so much. I hit the subscribe button and am looking forward to delving into more of your tips and guides.

Hello Tara: Do you have any updates to the questions you pose in this video? I’m usually a silent viewer. However, I’m “set” to finish my PhD in the fall and am on the job market. 🙏🏽♥️

The tips and presentation was fantastic Tara. Thank you very much

Thank you! This is great advice!

Thank you very much for sharing those questions, some tips on how to answer them. I have coming interview for an academic position. Wish me luck.

Woooooooow that question about your first marriage is borderline bullying

This is very helpful. Thank you!

Thank you so much, you deserve full respect and appreciation and all the respect of anyone watched your vlog. Could you kindly give me the proper or ideal answers to the questions you asked? I have an academic phone interview in the coming few days. Highly appreciated. sidqe

Thank you for the excellent interview tips.

Thank you so much for the great tips

Wonderful and many thanks

Hi Tara. Last week I had an academic interview. I got asked "what I am going to do if they give me 100k for research?". What is the best answer? Thank you

Tara. I’ve just got my MA in Education with Social Justice (merit). I’m applying for my dream job at Marjon Uni in the Uk. For interview School of Teacher Education: Please prepare a 10 minute presentation on the following: ‘Provide three examples of how you would work with trainee teachers to develop their subject and pedagogical knowledge during their primary ITT programme.’ You will have an additional 5 minutes to respond to any questions from the panel.

you're amazing

awesome!

Hi Tara, I am not sure if I mistake your sample question about bringing research insights to teaching. Is this question intent to ask how the interviewees make a connection between teaching and the insights into important issues through reseaerch, or actually the sense of conducting research for teaching?

Both YiLong - great question. The question asks how you bring your research into your teaching. That's a great answer. Then - even better - explain the research that emerges from your teaching. I did a later session on SoTL if that is useful. Biggest hug. t xxx

@@officeofgraduateresearchfl9343 Thank you for your response Tara, I have added your recommended vlog to my watch-later list. Your vlogs make me feel like I am a gold digger found a gold mine, I literally learn from you.

I love you :)

Exactly. Charles Darwin is a great example. He wrote lots of books and never had an academic position.
