| Mar 6, 2018 at 12:09 | comment | added | awjlogan | @aeismail Sure, clearly not everything can be in top tiers, that should be flag. However, it's a decent indication of someone's work (and experience) if it's all in toilet paper journals. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 12:07 | comment | added | awjlogan | @NajibIdrissi That was my exact point :) Worst case, it can be used dishonestly to get a place. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 12:01 | comment | added | user9646 | But you're not more likely to hire someone who submits everything in appropriate journals compared to someone who didn't mention where they submitted their papers, are you? Bottom line: little risk, zero reward: don't do it. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 11:59 | comment | added | aeismail | Actually, knowing where a person submits reveals something useful: their sense of appropriate venues of their work. I’m less likely to hire someone who submits everything to Nature or Science. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 11:59 | comment | added | user9646 | Anyway, I disagree with mentioning where you submitted your paper. What if someone sees it, then a year later sees that the paper was published elsewhere? It doesn't take a genius to connect the dots. Besides, it provides no info to the reader other than what you think of your own paper. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 11:57 | comment | added | user9646 | @awjlogan The supervisor should be angry with themselves for hiring someone based on where they submitted a paper. I mean, I could submit my birthday cards to Nature if I thought it would help my CV! The editors can reject them all they want, I've still submitted them there. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 10:33 | comment | added | awjlogan | In that case it should be just "Submitted for publication", rather than adding a journal. Say you claim to be submitting to Nature, get offered a job based on it, but it turns out it only made it into a toilet paper journal, your new supervisor isn't likely to be impressed... | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 10:26 | comment | added | aeismail | @awjlogan: If you’re a grad student or postdoc, you may not have much of a publication record. Under those circumstances, it’s important to list what’s in the pipeline. | |
| Mar 6, 2018 at 9:59 | comment | added | awjlogan | Don't add the "Submitted..." articles. There's no guarantee that they'll be accepted to that journal, and you could just say "Submitted to Nature/Science/other top journal" even if there's no chance of it making it in. | |
