Another problem that needs solving.
Edit: To clarify, I was also assuming some typical amount of other research credentials, as well. From Al-Khwarizmi's reply it sounds like the second candidate is likely to be the only one interviewed, which rules out the possibility of hiring the first candidate, the superior experimentalist.

- argonaut 10y agoIf they have a good research portfolio otherwise, then the first candidate's chances are unaffected, and the second candidate's chances at an interview are probably reduced. The first candidate's replication studies won't really count for anything (maybe a slight boost). The second candidate's bogus studies will count negatively. The process he describes is not reflective of US research university faculty hiring practices - the faculty will read your papers, they will solicit expert opinions from other leading researchers in the same research areas as you.
