Amazing speech. Thank you

Hi Dr CST! Many thanks for your videos. I have found them really useful! Please I need your thoughts as I am preparing for an online interview for a UK lecturer position. I was told I would give a 10-minute presentation as part of the interview and I would only be given the topic few minutes into the interview with about 45 minutes to then prepare, take a break for few minutes and then do the online presentation. How do I go about preparing for this kind of interview? Will this likely be focused on just my research (past, present and future) or I may be asked to do a microteach? I am not sure how much can be covered in 10 minutes...please what are your thoughts? I have not had an interview before without receiving the presentation topic days before the interview session. I look forward to hearing from you.

Just came across your channel and it's brilliant! If you haven't shared a video of your interview talk, please do!

Thanks for the great video, I got a research funding once, hoping to make it again, thanks for your advices, greetings

Thanks, that was very interesting! I teach rather small courses, so we often start with a round of people vocalizing their current state in one word (energized, interested, tired, exhausted...). Really helps me to know what my students need that day :)

Please make a vdo on post doc in marketing or commerce and management for Indians.

Can you please do a video on how you plan such as if you use any planners etc?

Refunds, because we all love dealing with them-important info

Love watching your videos, it really inspired me. How do I go about getting more classes to teach as so far I was only given one class during my journey starting out in my DBA journey?

I have a question. Do you know of anyone being trained as a lecturer during their PhD?

Thank you 😊

Hi, I commented on one of your other videos (I love your work, by the way). My master's degree is in Law, AI and New Technologies (LLM (the degree, not Large Language Models)). In my law school, they do not want students using any kind of AI to complete their work due to the risk of plagiarism. I'm sure you understand that within the law, both academic and industry, integrity is, first and foremost, a top priority. In my free time, I researched AI detection tools such as the one built into TurnItIn, and while it gives an indication of how much of the content is written by AI, it can actually be false. For example, OpenAI (the creators of ChatGPT) developed and released their own AI detection tool. A week later, it was withdrawn from the market due to inaccuracies in identifying AI-generated content. My theory is that a Generative AI system such as ChatGPT needs training data to learn and create the content, and this data is originally human-generated. This means that the AI is creating its content based on human-generated sources, which results in the AI content being indistinguishable from humans. While a lecturer may know for certain that the assessment paper is created by AI, the student copied and pasted it into a Word document and submitted it, proving it is impossible. This is why I am studying for a PhD in the best way to integrate AI into legal education. I am happy to discuss this further with you in detail if you would like. Let me know.

Hi, I'm due to start my PhD in Law & AI. It's a multidiscipline exploring the best use and integration of artificial intelligence in legal education to prepare students for an AI-driven legal career. I was wondering if you had any 'early academic career' advice, or maybe you have already made a video on it?

Thank you for the video. I m so nervous! I look forward to learning more from you.

I didn't do a postdoc as well, and proud, 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂

A PhD is typically considered a prerequisite for academic research positions, although rare exceptions may exist. While postdoctoral experience is often beneficial and sometimes expected by top-tier institutions, it is not universally mandatory. Postdoctoral requirements can vary depending on the nature of the position, with research-focused roles generally placing greater emphasis on such experience than teaching-oriented ones. Ultimately, individual circumstances and career goals play a significant role in determining the necessity of a postdoc. Thanks for the great video, Greetings 😍😍🌹🌹♥♥

I was kinda confused. That doesn't exist in the US.

I like your balanced outlook on managing success. It keeps us in check!

Thank you for this video. Your industry to academia story is inspiring as it is rare thus I am keen to learn more on the transition.

Thank you Caroline, great as always and I absolutely agree with your conclusions about the need to demonstrate your research track record. A PhD and Postdoc are obvious ways to evidence this.

Love your videos and they have been deeply helpful. Speaking from experience, academia is littered with precariously employed part-time teaching staff who do tutorials, grading, etc. who are always close to burn-out (underpaid and overworked). When it comes to Research Assistant positions (post-doc) my experience is that those positions are a fait a comple with the 'public tender' being mostly for show. The position already being agreed to be given with a preferred candidate. The reality is that for a vast majority of hopeful or precarious academics, academia is something of a racket unless you know the right people in the right places. Getting a PhD only means that you will be starting at the very bottom rung of a fiercely competitive and deeply unfair ladder

Hi do you have an email we can contact you on? Im interested to become a lecturer, thank you

I'm really jealous and would love to see some of your lectures 😊

Thanks ma'am. 1) Is the title of professor universal across institutions? 2) "Can someone awarded a professorship at Fourah Bay College, Sierra Leone, be considered a professor at Cambridge University?"

everything you say in this video is very educational and of interest to me but will you be talking about how much does an lecturer get paid, who pays for the traveling expensive, room and board when out of state, meals is this included.

UK & Ethiopia has similar procedure.

lovely teeth

Being a guy from a third world country, how do I apply for lecturing positions at a university? Like I have tried applying by follwoing the "due process" and fillined those long forms in the uni career portals but they always ask oh will you require future visa sponsorship and then you click yes and that's pretty much where the system will your application right away.

Nice interesting video, thank you

Thanks

Very practical information for preparation of conference.

good explanation dear I hope you will be a dean of any best university.i wish all the best. thanks

This was so helpful. There are no resources about how to handle a professors job! I’m require to have teaching research and service with teaching being weighted higher. I have been so frustrated because I feel I can’t seem to knock down the “urgent to do” for teaching or from other faculty. And my personal priorities for work are so neglected.

Thank you indeed. Never been paid around here, but the pleasure is immense when meeting friends and colleagues during the viva

May I make collaboration with you

My first supervisor has 11! (some are as second supervisor but most are first)

Just found this and very useful - I'm a month away from submission! And I definitely want at least minor corrections - I lose my library access the minute I 'finish' and I need the library access to prepare the articles I want to do.

I am happy to find the video😀😃, as I kept waiting on Monday.😪 Excellent idea for the video and the new series. Getting a research grant is not easy. Applied research ideas are more likely to attract grants; thus, collaboration with industry is essential. However, this collaboration is often individualized, and there are no official channels in most cases. Universal standardized protocols for collaboration might be a useful idea. As always, I thoroughly enjoyed the video and eagerly await the next part. Keep up the great work ❤❤ 🌹🌹 Greetings❤❤

I heard that in industry you don't publish. Is that accurate? Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm still in undergrad (for neuroscience, in the US) but I plan on doing a Phd. I'm thinking industry will be better for me because as of now, I don't have any desire to teach, plus I hear the pay sucks and positions are very limited unless you want to adjunct (nope). I do really want to travel tho!

Thank you very much for this information

Hi, I am currently working on my bachelor's degree, I had the idea to submit my bachelor's thesis to a journal after it was graded. After my degree, I'm going to pursue a masters degree. But I am pretty motivated to do personal research for journals. Can I do that without any requirements?

I found your channel useful when I was prepping for my viva, I passed last week, with minor corrections!!

I'm having my first lecture this morning but I'm so nervous. Thank you for this.

Your student call you doctor or professor ?? 🤔🤔😯

Thank you very much.

do we have a pre empowerment medical check-up before being a professor in UK ?

I went through all these details some years ago, 🤕and it was a confusing, and lengthy process to get suitable funding and deal with it. I wish this video with all these helpful explanations were available then; 😌😪that would be great and time-saving. However, I really enjoyed watching it now and memorizing these days. 🤣😂☺Thanks for your great help to the academic community. Greetings.😍🌹

Pursuing Math Ph D with positive direction can continue beyond more + years given more opportunities even being an adult adult in certain remote barangay of a country. Thanks so much for the good idea you present. Gracias again.
