So who is Johns Hopkins going to hire?
ZZ (Dickson Chicago) says (on their website) they are going to JHU.
Tenure track job application results
This forum used to be sexist and is now turning fully racist.
Here is a plea to any sane remaining faculty member:
Encourage your chairs to keep the interview lists hidden next season.
Lots of traffic in this toxic webpage will be gone.
Any secret interview list can have a positive effect. The future faculty members won't need to join a new department feeling completely disillusioned and disappointed by the community and their colleagues. And all just because of some undergrads and other insecure people who were forced out of math.
A common cause of market failure is asymmetric information. Candidates lacking information about who else is being interviewed where is a much bigger problem than the fact that OMG PEOPLE ARE MEAN ON THE INTERNET.

Indeed. For those who want to make the interview list secret, guess why some state universities are asked to make the interview list public? We need some transparency of the job market.

Only some people are mean on (and off) the internet. I realize it is tempting to try and put down other people's successes and to find reasons and measures for why one has not well on the job market one year but there is no reason for any department to give fuel to forums like this by keeping their interview lists open.
Both are true. People should stop visiting and interview lists are better off being hidden.
There are some things of value here. I hadn't realized exactly how judgemental math folks are until I came here, nor did I have any sense of journals. These are both discussions worth having which people often don't indulge even during department tea (at least not in front of grad students like me).
Not that I have a sense of journals now, but at least now I know what "Top 5" means, and what journals are unambiguously good, and the fact that actually there's no consensus on most things when it comes to journals.
See also the recent thread on André-Oort for discussion that is worth having. We should create a best of MJR thread where we link similar threads in the past.
What is the point of saying the initials of the name?
So that the site doesn’t show up when people google the name. Initials and name of school is the way to go. Initials alone is stupid as it doesn’t really help unless the reader already knows the gossip.
Why would anyone care if this site shows up?
Why would anyone care if this site shows up?
Just in case it is not self-evident:
The more MJR sticks to CV's, the stronger is the desire to take it down/spam/dox the posters.
More garden variety, plain dumb, and politically charged traffic by non-mathematicians.
Higher risk for the posters means less real content.
All that decreases signal to noise ratio.
