Many assumptions here that may not hold true everywhere. I was given LH internal as a fresh GEO3 and slogged for 3 years before I decided to apply out. Finally promoted to GEO4 in my second posting after a total of 4.5 years as a GEO3, 3 of which I spent getting A/B grades as an internal LH.

I don't feel like my first school had much intention to push me up, they were just trying to fill gaps and offload my HOD a bit.
