I donât have any particularly strong views, and would be interested in what others think.
Broadly, I feel like I agree that more specificity/âtransparency is helpful, though I donât feel convinced that itâs not also worth asking at some stage in the application an open-ended question like âWhy are you interested in the role?â. Not sure I can explain/âdefend my intuitions here much right now but I would like to think more on it when I get around to writing some reflections on the Research Communicator hiring process.
I just want to say that I love seeing this kind of thing on the EA Forum, and it is so different from most other parts of the internet: I have a proposal or a suggestion, and it doesnât quite mesh with what you think/âfeel. Neither of us have great justifications or clear data, and rather than ad hominems or posturing or some type of âbattle,â there is simply a bit of exchange and some reflection.
I really like that your response was reflective/âpensive, rather than aggressive or defensive. Thanks for being one of the people that makes the internet ever-so-slightly better than it otherwise would be. âş
