CC, I'm not in the UK, and my supervisor is not a prof (in the UK/EU sense). I'm in Canada, and here we tend to call everyone 'professors'. My supervisor started two years ago, she's an assistant professor.

Hi, all. I am starting a PhD (tomorrow!) and am getting nervous. I just completed my MSc at the same school with the same supervisor. We have a great working relationship, but as she is a new prof, she lacks the experience and wisdom of a more established prof, and I actually starting to doubt how much she will be able to guide me once I get into it. What do you folks think are the most important qualities of a supervisor?
