Excellent advice as ever from this series from @catherinedevries.bsky.social ⤵️
I never ran a 'hidden CV' but always thought, obviously with hindsight because on the spot it just hurts, that rejections had always been very beneficial to me. Hard to hear at the time. But worth anticipating.
Every academic career is built on rejection, but we don’t show it.

CVs list publications, grants & awards, not rejected manuscripts, unfunded proposals, or failures.

But those invisible rejections shape us more than our successes ever do.

Nope. This is not on.
Why is there always money for extremely expensive oversurveilance? Which, to boot has a long trackrecord of being *successfully* challenged by staff, so a wasted investment nobody should have signed off on.
