I do. It varies from department to department though.
Definitely look at the school’s mission and values and show you’re on board with that. If they have a 5 or 10 year vision document, read it, and try to show how your work will support that.
Based on my experience, do not mention growth and promotions etc. Universities have a pecking order and if you behave too “corporate” you don’t fit in.

Hi Fishes,
My LWD in Wipro (my previous employer) was on 21 Aug, 2021. I was waiting to receive my outstanding due and experience certificate, as part of F&F, ever since. However, I received an email from the offboarding team today stating that my Final Settlement is on on hold due to security concerns (DLP: data leakage). How is this going to play out? And much longer will it take before my F&F process is completed and I get my outstanding due and my experience certificate? Pls advice.
