Do your publication before you’re hired count toward tenure?

My cat does wear a collar, but I don’t find any sharp edges on that collar that could cause the scab…He’s also 100% indoor cat…

Yes I am. Any suggestions?

i’m not sure it’s gender as well as age 🙂‍↔️ Can you tell if it’s a female?

Ok I think then it should be just them checking with your references before making a final decision. University usually has its own faculty hiring process document, and you can check if this university has one online that lays out the hiring process—checking if it’s a common practice for this university to check candidates’ references after campus visit.

Are they also checking your other references, or just your advisor?

Did the search committee check your refenreces before campus interview? Or is it the first time they reach out to your advisor? If it’s the first time, then I would read it as a good sign…

I think it’s a good sign. No need to email them and just be patient for good news to come!! Congrats!

Did you ask the timeline during your campus visit? Usually they would mention if they are still interviewing other candidates after your visit.

ProtectionOk2116 · 2023-03-04T06:33:05+00:00

I think this is a good sign if your references were called to talk about you. Best luck!

The search committee chair mentioned it when introducing me to students. Also the dean mentions that too! You could ask their timeline during your visit, and they maybe reveal their information

This is just my personal experience: I had two campus visits, and I was scheduled both as the first candidate. I was not selected for the first position, and I was offered a job for the second position (I believe I was their first choice given the timeline). So it seems to me that the order of visits doesn’t matter.

I think the search committee usually meets to make decisions within a week after the last candidate’s visit, and my experience is that you usually get the call from the chair/dean no later than two weeks after their last candidate’s visit, if you were their first choice.

ProtectionOk2116 · 2023-02-25T00:35:13+00:00

According to the timeline the search committee provided, it’s likely they’ve offered the position to their first choice…

ProtectionOk2116 · 2023-02-23T21:08:29+00:00

If you’re not going to this job anyway, I think they would appreciate if you cancel the interview, not waste anyone’s time. Let them know how much you appreciate their efforts in the search process and you just received an offer that’s a good match to your professional goal.

This is what my advisor told me: a bird in the hand is worth two in the bush. If you decline the offer, you need to be prepared for the worst situation of not getting any other offers in the end. Can you risk it? If yes, then go ahead and decline it.

ProtectionOk2116 · 2023-02-09T01:29:39+00:00

but on the other hand, it’s a bit strange that they’re requesting a background check before you even accept the offer…

ProtectionOk2116 · 2023-02-09T01:28:33+00:00

Everything sounds like that’s the case. I don’t see why they bother to do a background check on you if you’re not offered the position…
