How difficult do you think it is to assess mentorship success in the context of the academic hiring process? What kinds of things do you think would constitute evidence or honest signals of being a good mentor in application materials and/or things a candidate says during an interview?

Totally agree. Being a mentor takes focus and effort, and some people just don’t want to spend their time on that. Those people shouldn’t be in education.
