Hi,
I read in one of the PhD guides that it is a good idea to record supervisions, just incase you've missed something or want to refer back to it at some stage. I would like to record the initial supervisions until I am comfortable in my own shoes. However, I don't want to start on the wrong foot with my supervisor!
Does anyone record supervisions, and are supervisors generally ok with it?
Thanks :)
Hi,
Does anyone have any recommendations as to which software I should use to collect references?
Mendeley and Zotero are free, whereas I'd have to pay around a £100 for EndNote, to get a license on my personal machine. Which one do you use?
More on Mendeley here: http://www.guardian.co.uk/media/pda/2010/jul/05/mendeley-activate
An informal interview will be a chat over a coffee/tea. Though it wont be like a formal interview, you should take it just as seriously and prepare all the answers they are likely to ask. They are likely to ask all the questions they'd ask in a formal interview, but in an informal relaxed manner, with no formalities. They could base a decision just on an informal interview; that is what my supervisor did. So best of luck x
