<div><font size="-1">This Thursday's workshop on Preparing for
Academic Interviews will feature some advice from an MIT junior
faculty member who can still remember what the academic interview
process was like. Our focus is NOT on how to give a job talk, but on
the overall on campus interview day.<font color="#0000FF">&nbsp;
&nbsp;</font>In addition to insights and tips from someone who's
successfully gone through the academic interview process, you'll have
a chance to practice answering some typical interview questions. Past
participants have noted that this is a beneficial
exercise.</font></div>
