Structural patterns of hiring model networks for two mechanisms of Faculty production and Local homophily and the empirical Computer Science hiring network as a function of prestige. (a), (b) Out-degree \(k_{i}\), (c), (d) eigenvector centrality, (e), (f) harmonic centrality, and (g), (h) mean geodesic distance normalized by network diameter. Panels on the left (a), (c), (e), (g) show results for the Faculty production model, and panels on the right (b), (d), (f), (h) show results for the Local homophily model (skewed initialization). Solid lines indicate the mean over 50 simulations, and shaded region around the mean indicates the 25% to 75% quantile range. Orange points indicate the observed values for the Computer Science hiring network. Large rank denotes higher prestige
