hi,
i did my interview on telephone the other day. the panel was from marketing with one potential supervisor in accounting. i was given the studentship and i didnt even expect. i ave background in hospitality management but am going to managerial accounting. but with Mres u should be more qualified. the panel shud ave dealt with ur proposal if u had one. the surest way to impress panels is the proposal. dont ask coz u had undue advantage over others based on info from ur supervisor. again whats the profile of those who got the studentship.

Phd studentship Telephone Interview

I had applied for phd studentship in management accounting in a Uk university and I have been invited for 30 min. telephone interview. i had previusly discussed my prop with the prof heading the research. he was interested in my project. the only setback is that my background is not in accounting but hospitality. but my publications and msc. thesis are on performance measurement in hospitality industry. I do teach at a public university in my country. what are some of the questions to expect for a Phd studentship? will they ask me about the UK general information abt UK like which one if any. will there be an aptitude test on the phone? please kindly help me out.

Phd information required
