Jet quenching has been one of the most important indicators that ultra-relativistic heavy-ion collisions produce a deconfined state of quarks and gluons, known as the Quark-Gluon Plasma. While the quenching of jets traditionally refers to the energy loss of high-momentum partons, the study of jet quenching has grown into a multi-pronged field where the measurement of jets and their modification in heavy-ion collisions is used as an important tool to study many aspects of QCD deconfinement. This contribution reviews the current experimental status of jets at the LHC and RHIC, and reports recent experimental highlights.
