BTW - did you like my “assumptive close”? Did you even catch it? ;).

“What training and professional development opportunities do you offer teachers?” And “How would you describe your school community?” Or “Tell me more about what it looks like to work here?”

ALWAYS ask questions! I thought I had a terrible interview once where I said something that just wrote me off to the interviewer (about liking the face-to-face with clients when it was a work from home job 🤦‍♀️ or something about community) but to save face, I had prepared questions and stayed on the phone for about 5 more minutes just learning about the business and role. Didn’t get the role that time, but did get a call back in the future from that same interviewer for another position bc they liked my curiosity and detail. You never know! Treat it like a date - keep asking questions about them, not anecdotes about you.

So I got invited to do an on-site interview and as part of it, the hiring manager wants me to present some of the chemistry I'm currently working on. The problem is all my work has been government contracted and hasn't been published, so due to confidentiality I can't present any complete schemes or specific structures. Any tips on how to ace this presentation?

CFP study programs:

I'm a little confused on Danko - does he offer a self-study option for the coursework requirement? On his website it looks like each module has a 4-day virtual class which I wouldn't be able to attend due to working full time. Does this program also include self-study material, and the classes are just supplementary/optional? I was also looking at Dalton for self-study and Danko for test prep. Thoughts?
