Abstract
In this mini-review, we summarize a variety of findings pertaining to consequences of the landscape of string theory for supersymmetry (SUSY) phenomenology. The idea is to adopt the MSSM as the most parsimonious 4-d low energy EFT after string compactification but where the scale of SUSY breaking is as yet undetermined. A power-law landscape draw to large soft terms is tempered by the requirement that the derived value of the weak scale lie within the anthropic window of Agrawal {\it et al.} (ABDS). Such a set-up predicts a light Higgs mass m_h~ 125 GeV with sparticles generally beyond LHC bounds. We discuss consequences for LHC searches: light higgsinos, highly mixed TeV-scale top squarks, same-sign diboson events and m_{\tg}~ 2-5 TeV. We expect dark matter to consist of an axion/higgsino-like WIMP admixture.
