I'm big on mentoring, as well, but for a 5 week course, there's just no time. if I were looking for an actual TA, she would be the one

so you're right in that i just need someone to put their head down and get through it with me


i also don't like trick questions..i like making sure the candidates feel safe to be honest and vulnerable..and like i mentioned earlier, i tend to conduct interviews in a conversational, relaxed style, as well as sharing personal anecdotes about my own career etc

I don't speak to provoke. I speak because I think our time is short and each moment that we are not our truest selves, and we say what we do not mean because we imagine that is what somebody wants us to say, is wasting our time on this Earth - C. Adichie
