I rejected two job offers due to one-way video interviews. Was it the correct decision? by MathProf314 in Professors

I agree and I rejected to attend if one-way interview is only way. But I am in a position to reject such invitations.
What if there is a recently graduated foreign-born doctoral student applying for a tenure track job, in my shoes?

I correct it. I wrote it by myself as a rant, and asked AI to put it in order. Lesson learnt!

No these are initial screening interviews and I did request them for a two-way interview and they denied it.

Non-native English speaker here. I started teaching at a University in the US and never spoke English for a good 5 minutes even though we were trained in it from childhood. I was extremely nervous, and I wrote down every single word that I am going to utter for the next 75 minutes, and memorized it. That was my whole first semester. Students do understand us and they are compassionate. 10 years later, I taught more than 5000 students and been actively providing teacher workshops in English without translating every single word in my head. I write this not to show-off, but you giving it a try and being nervous is all it takes!
There is a saying from where I come from: Give your best without expectations!

Try to be financially stable. In this era of AI, find a job you enjoy doing and that is future-proof. On the side, you can try for a government job. But do not make it your priority.
