DOWNLOAD EBOOKGuidelines for students preparing for college admissions interviews are presented, including results of a survey of admissions directors. Questionnaire responses were obtained from all but three directors of 48 public and 52 private colleges and universities, including the Ivy League and highly competitive schools and each state's main state university. Directors indicated whether interviews were required, the percentage of students who interviewed, and the value of interviews. They also offered advice for prospective applicants, which is summarized. In addition to discussing stages of the interview (beginning, middle, and end), pre-interview and post-interview processes are considered. Topics include: summer versus fall interviews, making an appointment, the college folder, researching the school, campus tours, questioning students, the role of parents, what to wear to the interview, reactions to the interview, important discussion topics, reactions to the campus visit, and the applicant's thank you letter. In addition to the on-campus interview, the pre-application campus visit, college nights or fairs, and alumni interviews are addressed. Appendices include practice interview questions, an interview evaluation form, the survey questionnaire, and a list of selected college guides. (SW)

Those who do make it share an important asset that separates them from the pack: they have a plan. They understand exactly what they need to do to set themselves up for success. They know what really moves the needle in academic job searches, how to avoid the all-too-common mistakes that sink so many of their peers, and how to decide when to point their Ph.D. toward other, non-academic options.

And as the creator of the popular and widely respected advice site The Professor is In, she has helped countless Ph.D.’s turn themselves into stronger applicants and land their dream careers. Now, for the first time ever, Karen has poured all her best advice into a single handy guide that addresses the most important issues facing any Ph.D., including: -When, where, and what to publish -Writing a foolproof grant application -Cultivating references and crafting the perfect CV -Acing the job talk and campus interview -Avoiding the adjunct trap -Making the leap to nonacademic work, when the time is right The Professor Is In addresses all of these issues, and many more.
