request for interview 2/1 (1x)

Zoom interviews: feb. 3rd and feb.10th

2/21: did anyone else NOT granted an interview last week get a request to fill out a survey/form collecting demographic info? Yes. Yes (2).


2/26: yeah i did interview and they said they'd be "in touch in a week or so" and then i got that. is that just their way of telling us it's done? "last part of the application to complete" ?

maybe--at the very least it's annoying and i'm not going to fill it out. but it also seems unethical to gather this data after the fact and in such an ineffective manner.

2/28: Do you think they have already invited someone to the campus visit? Or are they actually late? I will send a msg asking about the status, anyway...

i did when i got the survey and she never replied....

I sent a msg too... no answer...

same...like...don't tell applicants to inquire if you aren't going to respond? (and maybe you know, follow the law and gather this data earlier).

3/2: The chair replied my msg today and said they invited a very short list for a second interview
