  Searches for supersymmetry (SUSY) at the LHC frequently assume the
conservation of $R$-parity in their design, optimization and interpretation. In
the case that $R$-parity is not conserved, constraints on SUSY particle masses
tend to be weakened with respect to $R$-parity-conserving models. We review the
current status of searches for $R$-parity-violating (RPV) supersymmetry models
at the ATLAS and CMS experiments, limited to 8 TeV search results published or
submitted for publication as of the end of March 2015. All forms of
renormalisable RPV terms leading to prompt signatures have been considered in
the set of analyses under review. Discussing results for searches for prompt
R-parity-violating SUSY signatures summarizes the main constraints for various
RPV models from LHC Run I and also defines the basis for promising signal
regions to be optimized for Run II. In addition to identifying highly
constrained regions from existing searches, also gaps in the coverage of the
parameter space of RPV SUSY are outlined.
