Job Vibes Request
I am applying for a job, within Duke, that I am on the cusp (in my mind) of being qualified for. This job is exactly what I want to do and what I am going to school for, to teach doctors how to teach. Please throw a few vibes my way, if you some to spare. I suspect this is going to be a long process, even if I end up being their #1 candidate.
Thanks!
Thanks!

Best of luck to you, Tilly! I cannot think of anyone more deserving. Hopefully the powers-that-be will be as discerning as your CTN friends are.TillyGalore wrote:I am applying for a job, within Duke, that I am on the cusp (in my mind) of being qualified for.

Re: Job Vibes Request
I'm curious about the position, and even if you don't get it, what it is you are looking to do. I bet you would enjoy a conversation with my dad; teaching people how to teach has always been one of his objectives, as well as teaching medical students how to learn.
Best of vibes to you, I hope you get it!

Re: Job Vibes Request
Thank you, everyone, for the vibes. I am tweaking my cover letter, it's already a full page so I need to find a way to cut it down a little, plus I don't like the paragraph comparing what they want and what I have done. I hope to submit my application tomorrow.

Re: Job Vibes Request
If you haven't already seen this, I'm sure it's in the Duke Medical library. In 2008, the 100th anniversary of Dr. Eugene Stead's birth, a symposium was held to discuss learning and teaching medicine. Chris' dad wrote and presented Brain Sorting in the 21st Century. My dad moderated and I got to play "Oprah" by carrying the mic around for comments by the audience. It was such a cool thing to try to absorb all the knowledge and wisdom in that room. It was freaking exhilarating.
