14,000+ PhD Placement Records From 80 Econ Departments Now Searchable in Open Dataset

Pablo García-Guzmán launched a major update to econphdplacements.com: individual-level first-job outcomes for 14,000+ PhD graduates from 80 economics departments worldwide since 1990, scraped from public placement pages. The site offers search, filters, CSV export, department profiles, head-to-head comparisons (graduates, tenure-track share, top employers), and aggregate placement trends. Sharp reader Afinetheorem praised it as an example of making datasets searchable, AI-extendable, and easy to understand — something that used to be very hard.
