Interview
This interview review process assessed ten candidates for two academic posts. The panel used three key questions—gauging motivation, ethical understanding, and communication skills, to evaluate each candidate. Through structured scoring and comparative discussion, they identified the two individuals who best combined expertise, integrity, and teaching ability for the roles.
I applied in-person. The process took 2 weeks. I interviewed at Midlands State University (Zimbabwe) in Jun 2020
Interview
Relaxed, the panel was warm and welcoming - it was sort of a discussion with the panel members, no need to cram mission statement etc,... they were more concerned about the job role as specified in the advert
