I have done nearly 10 interviews, and I simply do not think it is possible for me to adequately discuss my research. I have done too much of it, and some of it, although I think it is extremely interesting and exciting, is also extremely obscure for many people.
As it is, I am doing some mock interviews again, and the comments are almost universally, "wow it sounds like you have not done much research," which is very, very far from being the case. And yet, I don't know how to convey my research in two minutes without it coming across in this way. I have felt this way during most of my interviews.
If I could hand out 1 or 2 abstracts at the end of the interview, I would feel much more comfortable. So, is it possible to do something, or do I deserve (as I suspect) mockery and heckling for even entertaining the thought?
Thoughts or tips?
Thanks. #neuroticpremed
