What can be considered beneficial, meaningful work for the portfolio vs a waste of time in regards to the hiring process. (Jade Hails, FB) 42:11 Why do they seem to prefer academics (people with 5 DMAs) instead of performers (Marcelina Suchocka, FB) 44:53 DMA needed to get a job 47:01 Accreditation agencies and degrees needed to be hired 50:34 How certifications impact departments 51:06 DMA or equivalent experience 53:08 Playing demonstration. Would be curious to see what committees actually value in a playing demonstration.... what they've been impressed by in the past. It's so hard to demonstrate appropriate musicianship on timpani and drum set, which function much better in an ensemble than as a solo instrument, that the college job search game seems like a marimba and multi-percussion contest sometimes.
