Why are you applying for Director of Research?
I believe my strong ethic and drive for research would contribute greatly to the department overall and my good rapport with both fellow execs, the current DoR (that I would be working alongside with), and even lower ranking personnel from seniors to juniors shows my skills in regards to leadership. I think that I would wholly enjoy more contact with Site Command and more 'freedom' (in a sense) in what I am able to accomplish. I was grateful for the opportunity to go from a Researcher to an Executive and feel that this is the natural next step in my tenure. I believe I possess some of the right qualities to currently lead this department and hope to balance it out and oversee the current exec team, current projects, and other matters; and I hope that I can properly recognize the effort of executives and the likes as a senior CL4.

What makes you suitable for Director of Research?:
I believe that in recent times I have, out of all of the executives, contributed the most towards the current department. On the roster not only have I set a new record for activity in one week (63+) but I have also completed and attended the most lectures and graded a significant quantity of documents. I have also completed multiple significant tests, one, which as far as I know, set a record for the highest amount of samples ever collected from any given sampling, that was completely above-board. I've made significant progress in writing documents and find great joy in exercising my creative writing skills and slowly easing myself out of the 6-month writing burnout. I contributed significantly to the research subdepartment of pataphysics and even despite my current short tenure I have received three additional excellent documents and two exemplary documents. I additionally believe that I have upheld the wishes of the current DoR in attempting to recover the reputation of RSD after the previous DoR's neglect and also find myself able to handle the criticisms and conflicts that can arise when dealing with misbehaving researchers and the department as a whole. I have found my decisions to punish personnel upheld by both staff and the DoR multiple times, and believe my behavior reflects my strict punishment policies - I expect to be treated the same if I behave as those I punish. I think I could foster a healthy research environment with the current DoR Engallagher K. Ludenberg and hope that I can contribute in a much more involved way to active and future projects, and I additionally wish to form a closer relationship with Site Command, as is naturally the next step of progression from my current position as Jr. CL4. I heavily enjoy involving other departments in research and duly hope this sentiment is shared by O5 and any others overseeing this application; I wish to oversee further involvement of at the very least both medical and GSD in the research department and hope that a position as DoR would greatly aid in this.

What are the responsibilities of the Director of Research in RP?:
The primary responsibilities of a DoR are as follows:
- Leadership & Management:
A DoR has to know how to lead. They have to lead both Executives and lower ranking personnel in both the department and in roleplay. RSD is an incredibly RP-heavy department and DoRs must know how to foster that kind of environment. They must also know how to manage the people that lead, and manage both OOC things (Roster, whitelists, departmental changes, job-bans etc.) and in-character things (Projects, proposals, subdepartments). They must be a good mentor and they must know how to organize their staff.
- Creating new RP & fostering old RP:
The DoR, as the highest-ranking research personnel, is expected to create and foster both new & old research projects to a high standard. It takes great creativity and work ethic to both reach and stay as DoR, and in order to properly act as Director, you must contribute and create research.
- Beaurocracy & Collaboration:
As Sr. CL4, you are expected to maintain close collaboration with both other departmental leaders and SC & SA. This is to both ensure a positive environment and more especially to ensure that you fulfil sitewide goals, can maintain and create collaboration between departments, and fulfil your requirements as DoR. It is additionally important to maintain these relationships as it sets a precedent for the entire department - you are expected to 'behave' as DoR, and good rapport with both higher-ups and other departmental leaders is important to efficiently perform your duties.
- Administration & Cooperation:
As DoR, you should not only be able to perform all the duties of an executive, but you should also be able to manage these executives. As executives are CL4 and whitelisted, they will need a leader much more than a senior researcher would. The DoR is expected to lead and guide these people, providing feedback and punishments where necessary, and managing the department as a whole (see management). They will also be expected to lead in other ways, also, through leading projects and leading the cooperation with other departments, they can invite roleplay that would otherwise not be possible. It is first and foremost the DoR's job to create roleplay, and this should always be the first priority. They should also know how to cooperate cross-server. Collaboration between US & UK DoRs is paramount to help share and foster both new and old ideas and can provide valuable insights into your work. Four Directors working together is better than two.
