“Getting Involved: Steps to Becoming An Irresistible Applicant” Wayne Howard Cal Poly State University Orlando, FL July 27, 2008

The Punch line: how to be irresistible Publish. Be really smart. Publish more. Present a paper. Publish the paper you presented.

My Experience Graduate Student Applicant Employer At Guelph At Cal Poly

What does the customer want? Does your letter reflect the position’s teaching/research split? Does your seminar and discussion reflect the institution’s mission? Don’t tell them they’re your back-up.

Myths Those who can’t do, teach. Good researchers can’t teach. Good teaching is intuitive.

Things to do Present and publish at every opportunity. Don’t overlook trade publications and popular press. Teach a course; don’t just TA.

What I want for Cal Poly Interest in teaching undergraduates. Ability to Engage students Publish peer-reviewed and popular press articles Generate industry support
