"We stopped counting papers and started reading them": a dean on hiring reform

Authors
Abstract
Three years after abolishing metric thresholds in recruitment, the faculty reports longer shortlisting but markedly better retention. The analysis draws on a corpus assembled from institutional repositories, preprint servers and publisher metadata feeds, and the full dataset together with the code needed to reproduce every figure is deposited under a permissive licence. Limitations, including coverage gaps in non-English sources, are set out in the discussion.
