Viva Survivors Select is a series of curated collections of the best of the Viva Survivors daily blog, a monthly zine of viva help on a variety of topics and themes taken from eight years of daily posts.
Viva Survivors Select 06 is the Expectations Issue! Twenty posts from the Viva Survivors archive exploring what vivas are like. What's the process? What really happens? How do you find out more? And, importantly, what do you do to get ready when you do know what to expect? There's a lot to unpack in this issue!
Each issue of Viva Survivors Select also includes new original writing by me to build on themes and offer more help. I take a page in the Expectations Issue to dig into video vivas and then share an original reflective game to help candidates explore their feelings ahead of the viva.
