c*f 发帖数: 977 | 1 My LD had the phone interview this morning. Her spoken English is among the
worst. So, the phone interview was not good, and she thought she needn't
consider this position any more.
But they contacted LD's referees for reference letters this afternoon. Is
this a good sign and means they do not deny my LD's candidacy completely, or
they will ask for references for every candidate they interviewed any way? |

any reply yet...

Maybe because your presence adds more pressure?

m***j 发帖数: 1215 | 9 different people have different opinion or they dont care the interview at
all for her excellent publication record? They will give your LD another
chance for on-site interview if no other better candidates.
Bottom of line is dont guess. Wait and see. The news will come soon.
Bless anyway..

talk with them, and they will be meeting soon and moving forward.
This sounds pretty negative?

r****e 发帖数: 3109 | 13 i think they would request ref letters for all those that they interviewed
by phone. the letters and phone interview performances will both be
considered in making the shortlist for on-site interviews.
as for the reply to the thank-you note, it's standard language before any
decision has been made.
wait for a week and see what happens.

c*f 发帖数: 977 | 15 LD got the onsite invitation today. In addition to a colloquium, LD needs to
teach a real class. They asked her to go before the end of this month. This
looks too rush, since LD needs to give a lecture in a real class. Should
she request to visit at a later time, say early March? |

c*f 发帖数: 977 | 17 Thanks. But LD also needs to prepare for the colloquium.
Her spoken English is pretty bad (I guess that's why they ask her to teach
an ongoing class, to see if she can teach effectively). She feel the need to
prepare for longer time...

acceptable for them.

c*f 发帖数: 977 | 19 Hope it is the case. But we think it is mainly because LD's background and
research is a perfect fit for the position.

f******y 发帖数: 46 | 20 Let your wife teach you or her friends the lecture before the visit. Try at
least 5 times. She should be fine. Unless she totally screw up, they will
mainly consider her strength in other areas. |
c*f 发帖数: 977 | 21 Thanks. That requires a lot of time. Maybe LD should ask for defer the
interview one more week...
