Although certain exceptions exist (the rarest exceptional candidate that can go from Emory-Cornell😜) this chart is accurate. Expect your 1st job to be between one to two levels below the ranking of where you got your PhD. Which means some schools are not &

Yep. Experiencing this first hand right now. This is true even at state schools. And faculty themselves perpetuate this. “We only hire from top 20 institutions”. Bullshit. 😡
