These proceedings highlight a selection of recent results by the ATLAS, CMS and LHCb collaborations. The majority of the featured analyses make use of the large set of $\sqrt{s}=13$ TeV proton-proton collision data collected during the successful second run of the LHC. A particular focus is placed on analyses of Standard Model processes involving either hadronic jets or W/Z bosons. Searches and cross-section measurements involving top quark signatures are also given prominence, as are those targeting highly boosted objects such as W/Z and H bosons, and which feature the use of large-radius jets and substructure techniques.
