Supersymmetry (SUSY) is one of the flagships of the research program at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC). After three years of data-taking, producing outstanding results, no sign of SUSY has been found and the most favourable scenarios have been excluded by the large amount of analyses developed by the LHC collaborations. However, the perspectives of finding supersymmetric particles in the near future remain high. In this talk, I will review the most relevant searches for SUSY that have recently been carried out in ATLAS with a significant size of the available data sample. In addition, I will also show some of the most interesting results from CMS and what are the perspectives for the near future. These results together with the ones that will be published in the coming months will shape the search strategies for the upcoming LHC run with an increased centre-of-mass energy, and could eventually bring out some suprises.
