I just saw somebody, a peer, put their h-index in their CV. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little bit disturbed — "are they actually OK?"-level disturbed. Wow...

Yeah, it is funny - you can get hired at a Uni without mentioning your h-index, but promotion guidelines at that same Uni may require e.g. an h-index, in spite of the fact that they have *more* info about your *actual performance*. Management.

I think my h made it onto my CV for this reason: I had to fill out some thing or other that wanted it there. So I put it on. It’s about as meaningful as where I have my first guest lecture to an undergrad class, but that’s probably on the CV too somewhere

I admit I added it *once* as part of a grant application where everyone else in the grant had included the h-index; just to show I actually had one!
