@NateMJensen @whinecough @BrendanNyhan @dhnexon @TomPepinsky @irfan23 it would be awesome to make job candidates take the Wonderlic.- @whinecough @BrendanNyhan @dhnexon @TomPepinsky @irfan23 40 yard dash times? I might be confusing my life with the NFL draft again
@NateMJensen @brendannyhan @dhnexon @tompepinsky @irfan23 why not portfolio of blog posts and Twitter battles?
@NateMJensen @dhnexon @tompepinsky @irfan23 plus dispersion of assessments of papers might be wider than talks- @NateMJensen @dhnexon @tompepinsky @irfan23 ideally papers would matter most but adviser influence hard to see, lots of work
- @NateMJensen @BrendanNyhan @dhnexon @TomPepinsky @irfan23 I think pedigree and letters of rec are probably over rated.
- @BrendanNyhan @dhnexon @TomPepinsky @irfan23 My gut says JT over weighted. But I need to think about the other weights.
- @dhnexon @NateMJensen @TomPepinsky @irfan23 besides overweighting JT results, my other concern is influence of extraneous non-verbal factors
- @BrendanNyhan @natemjensen @tompepinsky @irfan23 actually studying causes of differential scholarly outcomes might be xplsv ;-)
- Exactly @BrendanNyhan Especially as faculty use as substit for deeper eval of rsrch/temperament/capab @tompepinsky @natemjensen @irfan23
- @NateMJensen @tompepinsky @brendannyhan @irfan23 wld like "second line" ans, espcly to (1) objcts to specific form & (2) negtvs 2 SQ. 2/2
- @NateMJensen @tompepinsky @brendannyhan @irfan23 but what piece? These are the standard args. I made stab at preempting them. 1/2
- @TomPepinsky @BrendanNyhan @irfan23 @dhnexon Agree. This is why I still can't find a sub for the job talk. Adds important piece to the puzz
- @TomPepinsky @BrendanNyhan @irfan23 @dhnexon Written work can be as much about adviser as the candidate. #youdidn'tbuildthat
- @TomPepinsky @natemjensen @irfan23 @dhnexon 1:1s probably best for fit. Problem is job talk salience is so high it can dominate on all dims.
