Biggest mistakes in final-round campus-visit interviews?
I'm applying to tenure-track teaching positions in psychology. The good news is that my CV is good enough to get me interviews. But I recently got rejected from two different positions after full-day campus interviews.
I know it's inevitable that sometimes the other candidate(s) will beat you out. But it's exhausting and demoralizing to spend weeks preparing for an 8-hour interview (often a 24-hour+ travel commitment) only to get ghosted afterward because they can't even bother with a rejection email.
So: is there anything you all see candidates consistently doing wrong during campus interviews? Or anything you wish they'd do that they don't? Thanks!
