* 你可以凭空捏造这个项目,将其叙述为你的连贯学术计划的一部分。但无论如何,要通过这个计划证明你的思考方式像一位 Tenure教师,而不是那种计划按 term为单位的人。 | * 你可以凭空捏造这个项目,将其叙述为你的连贯学术计划的一部分。但无论如何,要通过这个计划证明你的思考方式像一位 Tenure教师,而不是那种计划按 term为单位的人。 | ||
==“You come from an X kind of school. How would you adapt to a campus like ours?”== | ==“You come from an X kind of school. How would you adapt to a campus like ours?”== | ||
+ | 这个一般是属于下嫁时要证明你可以适应 low rank 的目标学校。范例: | ||
+ | >“I have a commitment to the type of teaching that is done at Rural College, a commitment that has grown stronger the further that I have moved in my career. I look forward to hands-on work with students, and appreciate the campus’s commitment to X. In addition, my family resides in the area/my research will thrive in the area/I have a personal connection to the area.” | ||
+ | |||
+ | 你需要以事实为基础去表达合理的情感,而不是直接说说你是完美匹配这个学校的人。注意上面例子的最后一段提到了家庭:这个联系只有在申请边远城市的二线学校才值得提。没有人选名校的理由是家人住得近。 | ||
+ | ==“Do you have any questions for us?”== | ||
+ | 一些不好的回答示例: | ||
+ | > • “No.” | ||
+ | > • “Uh, I guess not. I can’t really think of any offhand.” | ||
+ | > • “I’d like to ask about your spousal hiring program.” | ||
+ | > • “What is your department’s relationship with the dean?” | ||
+ | > • “How is your department viewed on campus?” | ||
+ | |||
+ | * 一些常见的误区 | ||
+ | * Tell us about your research | ||
+ | * 你以为:别人对你的研究感兴趣,所以你说了很多 | ||
+ | * 实际上: | ||
+ | * 委员会只对你的专业知识对他们广告中的需求有多大帮助有兴趣 | ||
+ | * 他们还会通过你的回答来查看你是否善于交流 / 是否有自我中心的趋势 | ||
+ | * Tell us about your plans for the next five years. | ||
+ | * 你以为:委员会对你的兴趣 / 动力来源感兴趣 | ||
+ | * 实际上: | ||
+ | * 他们想要知道你对 Tenure 这个职位是否有清楚的认识(tenure 是通过对未来一系列的仔细计划并实现后能达到的终点) | ||
+ | * 你具体要达到 tenure 这个目标的计划 | ||
+ | * 需要有具体的时间 / 地点 | ||
+ | * R1 会更优先考虑你的研究计划,而 teaching shcool 则会优先考虑的教学计划 | ||
+ | * Tell us how you would teach our big survey course. | ||
+ | * 你认为:我手底下的学生必须学这个,必须学那个 | ||
+ | * 实际上:委员会不想听到你希望将他们的大型入门课程变为你个人理论的实践地。他们想知道: | ||
+ | * youget that you will be teaching big survey courses(你不能偏离大轨道) | ||
+ | * 你了解 program 希望学生学到什么,并有一个明确保证学生学到这些东西的计划、 | ||
+ | * Tell us how you see yourself contributing to this department. | ||
+ | * 你认为:别人向知道我怎么计划课程,我有多喜欢学生 | ||
+ | * 实际上: | ||
+ | * 委员会想知道你是如何将你的工作与当前 faculty 进行的工作如何联系起来的(从主题上/ | ||
+ | * 委员会想知道你如何提高该系的声望(毕业生、项目、课程等。) | ||
+ | * Tell us why you want to work here | ||
+ | * 你认为:委员会想知道你觉得他们的系有多好,他们的东西会给你带来什么样的帮助(这是自我的想法!) | ||
+ | * 实际上: | ||
+ | * They want to know that you understand the university, the department, the faculty and have concrete ideas about how you can connect, build, and engage with its stated programs and priorities. | ||
+ | * 回到本节的问题: **Do you have any questions for us?** | ||
+ | * 你认为:这个问题是在搜集信息 | ||
+ | * 实际上: | ||
+ | * 你的问题展示了你的优先事项,体现了你的价值观。因此,你必须向委员会体现出你在考虑的东西是他们想让你考虑的东西,比如 R1 大学就会认为你的关注点应该着眼于你的终身教职的案例上。(这种情况下,如果只问 teaching 的问题就不合适) | ||
+ | * 你的问题应该显示出你对部门与校园状况的理解: | ||
+ | * 如果能简单回答的问题最好不要提,比如: | ||
+ | * “Is there a lot of collaboration in the department? | ||
+ | * 避免带有自身判断的问题,比如: | ||
+ | * * “You seem to be lacking classes in X; are you looking to increase that coverage area? | ||
+ | * 好问题应该具有开放性,比如: | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know more about sources for research support on campus” | ||
+ | * 如果是 R1 大学,可以问一些关于研究支持相关的东西,比如: | ||
+ | * “Do you provide automatic junior sabbatical for assistant professors? | ||
+ | * teaching school 需要问 teaching 方面的支持。 | ||
+ | <WRAP center round tip 100%> | ||
+ | 你提出的问题都是在展示你为该工作做好了准备,且也与学校也做好了合作的准备。 | ||
+ | </ | ||
+ | ==Questions for Interviews at Research Universities== | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know more about sources of travel support on campus.” | ||
+ | * “Could you tell me about teaching-release possibilities on campus?” | ||
+ | * “I heard that there is a junior sabbatical for tenure-track faculty. Could you tell me more about that?” | ||
+ | * “What is the breakdown of undergraduate and graduate teaching? | ||
+ | * “I’m interested to know how the graduate students are supported. Could you tell me more about that?” | ||
+ | * “What level of graduate-assistant support is available to support research? | ||
+ | ==Questions for Interviews at Teaching-Oriented College== | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know more about the students; what do they tend to do after graduation? | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know about some of the ways that students are involved in faculty research (and here are some of my ideas about that).” | ||
+ | * I’m curious about opportunities to lead field school or studyabroad programs.” | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know more about the [fill in the blank] Club. What are some of its activities and how are faculty involved? | ||
+ | * “I’d like to hear about opportunities for collaborative (and/or interdisciplinary) teaching on campus.” | ||
+ | * “I’d like to know more about the advising and mentoring programs in the college. How do faculty work with students outside the classroom? | ||
+ | ====The Conference Interview ==== | ||
+ | * 通常面试的长度大概在30分钟左右,问题大致5个左右 | ||
+ | * 每个回答不要超过 4 分钟 | ||
+ | * 面试中尽量控制自己的情绪 | ||
+ | ==准备工作:了解 search commitee 的成员== | ||
+ | * 研究他们的工作 | ||
+ | * 了解整个部门的情况 | ||
+ | * 熟悉他们的课程目录 | ||
+ | * 了解他们最近的成就 | ||
+ | * 了解自己可能要教的课,并准备一些关于如何教授这些课的想法。 | ||
+ | * 如果可能得话,考虑将他们的文章放到你课程的 reading list 里(真诚第一) | ||
+ | * 了解一下系里的财政情况,看看该系是否正在增加学费或是寻求更多的 funding。如果这个学院正在大规模裁员,那么你可能需要准备好教大课,并适当的提一下这个事情。 | ||
+ | ==处理非正式的“面试”== | ||
+ | 某些学校会给你来一场像聊天一样的非正式的“面试”。这种面试更像是对话,但你也需要做好之前提到过的准备。对话过程中需要确保对话快速而有效的进行,准备一些话题给面试前后闲聊用(可以是刚听到的,很精彩的专题讨论)。 | ||
+ | \\ \\ | ||
+ | 同时注意不要太过执着于该对话。该离开的时候需要离开。 | ||
+ | ===电面(电话 / | ||
+ | * 电面通常是 20 - 30 分钟 | ||
+ | * 将你的回答限制在 2 分钟以内 | ||
+ | * 注意 pause。 你给出的回答需要给对方来思考。 | ||
+ | * 发言即将结束的时候使用强烈的语气释放这个(我已经说完了的)信号,然后默数 5下,然后等待下一个问题的提出。如果对方没有提问,就接着说其他的 | ||
+ | ==电面的建议== | ||
+ | * 正装(主要用于转换自己的心态) | ||
+ | * 提前设置好桌上的空间,确保有足够的隐私 | ||
+ | * 放一个笔记本到旁边,用于给自己一些小提示。这些提示可以包括: | ||
+ | * 论文主题: X, y, z | ||
+ | * intro course 的课本是啥, | ||
+ | * method seminar 的内容(比如讨论的是数量内容还是质量内容) | ||
+ | * 不要写太长的回答,这些回答必须烂熟于心 | ||
+ | * 做个单页的 cheatsheet放旁边,上面包括: | ||
+ | * 所有 faculty 的名字(search committe 的房最上面),以及他们的研究重点,还有他们最近发表的一片论文的标题。 | ||
+ | * 准备纸笔,在提问的时候速记。比如有时候你会遇到复合型的问题,你需要记下每个部分然后做针对性的回答。 | ||
+ | ==skype 的建议== | ||
+ | * 大多同上 | ||
+ | * 检查桌上的空间(尤其是摄像头范围内的小物件) | ||
+ | * 检查屏幕上你头的大小,不要太大,也不能离的太远 | ||
+ | * 把你的辅助材料放置到摄像头附近,不要让人看到你在看屏幕之外 | ||
+ | * 跟人说话的时候尽量盯着摄像头,制造眼神接触 | ||
