  4. I also should have clarified in my last post, I think it's a great idea to have some on hand if people ask for them at interviews for sure! Whether or not you go out of your way to hand out a new CV should be more dependent on if big things have changed. Which for you, it sounds like they have! I would give them a copy and mention the new position and poster. Congrats!
  5. I would say yes if it's things like having a paper or poster submitted or accepted, or a new position, but no if it's a bullet point added to a job description or something else small. Only do it if the changes are something you really want to draw attention to is my suggestion! ?
  6. From what I've heard from people who interview students, it is helpful if you have a stand out piece of clothing for people to remember you by. I certainly don't mean a neon yellow pantsuit, but a nice pop of color somewhere can let professors (mainly who aren't your PI of interest) who speak with you out of maybe 20 others that day say "Ah! Pink necklace girl. I liked her!" rather than "mmm I don't remember her." Some places take head shots to help them remember who was who during discussions post-interview, but not all, so something else identifiable can help!
  7. I would agree! I think with the competitiveness of graduate programs currently, many of the people you're applying against will have Master's degrees. And as long as you do well, it serves as a good indicator that you can be successful in a rigorous academic program while conducting research. It's also a great opportunity to make sure the PhD you're headed for is actually the field you want to be in. But I got a Masters so I may be biased. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
