First-hand accounts from people who interviewed at Université de Lorraine.
Teacher
Spoke with the training manager. First, they went over the school's requirements and checked my qualifications. Then, we set up a teaching framework that fits the syllabus. I explained how I'd organize the course for approval.
- What are your qualifications?
Doctorant
1 interview with the thesis director, co-director, co-supervisor, and a former doctoral student. Questions focused on your motivations for applying for the thesis, your understanding of the thesis subject, your previous experiences, and your ability to maintain motivation over 3 years, even through difficult times.
- Why do you want to do a PhD?
- How would you react if you experienced dips in motivation?
- Do you feel ready to commit to this subject for 3 years?
Master Student
Campus France application, French test, English test, cover letter, previous Master's academic records, and a convincing letter were all part of the process. It also included a Campus France application, a French test, an English test, a cover letter, complete academic records from the previous Master's, and a convincing letter.
- What is your professional project?
- What is your academic project?
- Are you proficient in French?
Maitre De Conférences
For jobs in the humanities, after you send in your application through the national system to schools you want to apply to, if your resume looks good and fits the job, you'll be invited for an interview on campus. It's usually with about 8-16 professors and lecturers, and lasts around 20 minutes. Most candidates are interviewed on the same day. You'll have about 5 minutes to talk about yourself and why you're a good fit. The committee will then ask some questions, like if you could teach certain classes or what you'd bring to their research. It can feel a bit overwhelming, but they're usually pretty nice since you might be a colleague soon.
- Could you teach a course at the agrégation level even if you don't have the agrégation yourself?
