A great summary: What advice would PhD people give to their former grad-student self.
More than a dozen people shared their thoughts. The result is both thought-provoking, and inspiring.
You are having a TT job interview, and they ask you if you have any questions. A nice list of questions to consider. And also - what to say if they ask you "tell us how you think you will fit here" (or rather how to prepare for questions like that, and what they really mean).
How reading random stuff, and not being too busy, are both so important for scientific success.
