Prior to this episode we reached out to our community of academics. Here鈥檚 what they said:

• Tell me about an interesting scientific finding you read about recently (not related to your own subject). Similar to:听Tell me what you鈥檙e reading these days (a friend was asked by a sociologist).
• Teach us a complex concept in two minutes. Pretend we are undergrads with little background knowledge.
• What is your greatest weakness? (They just want you to talk about how you turned your weakness into strength).
• What do you bring to the table? (Alina: I answered 鈥淛oy and positive attitude鈥�. Everyone laughed. I got the job.)
• Questions about how to deal with difficult team members 鈥撎齮hat doesn't really set good expectations!
• I was asked if I could explain how it is possible to feel lonely in a crowd, relevant to the post but it took me by surprise.
• If you鈥檙e interviewing听straight after your PhD, the panel will be testing how much of your PhD is you and how much of听it is your supervisor. Be prepared for detailed questions on methodology, coding, who wrote up which parts.
