Hi everybody and thank you for sharing your experiences with me and for encouraging me. I like the idea of writing down the changes and justification for them. I will also make sure to take with me a couple of key articles that might become handy. Thank you kenziebob. Those are actually really handy tips :D
Thank you so much, both of you. I know I should be more relaxed about the whole process but my anxiety is always there. I have written a report myself and I am preparing the best I can for what they might ask me. Did any of you prepare or plan to prepare a list of possible questions and their answers or did you/plan on choosing another less structured way of preparing for the interview? I was advised to do so since English is not my first language, but I am having second thoughts (mainly in regards to the fact that I might freeze if I am not able to remember how exactly I phrased an answer in my notes).
Hello everybody.
I am new here and do not really know how things work, but I was hoping you could perhaps give me some advice regarding my upcoming probation review.
I am about to finish my first year and in order to proceed with my PhD I need to pass a probation review. I have submitted a report to the panel and I will be having an interview in a couple of weeks. Although everybody keeps saying to me that it will be a friendly process, I am a bit freaked out about it. I was therefore wondering if any of you are in the same place right now and if anyone who just went through this process has any advice for me in regards to what I should expect to be asked in the interview.
Thank you all in advance for your help. Looking forward to hear from you :D
