My findings on tenure-track academic job openings in Middle East history, cultural anthology, political science and economics: overall, it's ~3-5X harder to find a decent job today in the humanities than 2 years, & it's 2X as hard in the social sciences #phdlife #AcademicTwitter

An amazing *randomized trial* on Twitter academia:
112 papers were randomly chosen to be shared on twitter by a group with ~58k followers or to not be shared. Papers that were tweeted accumulated 4x more citations compared to non-tweeted papers over 1yr.
