... I didn't get the Dalhousie job. "Many highly qualified applicants, only able to forward two to the final round, please apply next year." Bah. I'll email them back and ask what I could have done better.
My supervisor was as surprised as I was about the "research proposals shouldn't be about your proposed research" fiasco, incidentally. And his most recent research proposal is used as an example of how to do it right by the body which awarded his grant :-(
Edit: they've replied already! There were 14 applicants for two slots, several of whom already had substantial publication records. Ah well, Canada's not going anywhere.
