Re:How to apply with a PhD that is 'on hold' by jedanbik on Tuesday July 15, 2014 @07:12AM (#8035764)
Nobody cares about your qualifications, and most people drop out of PhD programs.* If you're asked in a job interview "why did you leave your PhD program?", you can honestly say "because I am interested in exciting, lucrative, market driven opportunities such as this one." Focus on your experience (which you have), and keep your head up. You'll be fine.

*I just dropped out of grad school, and nobody seemed to mind. Feel free to email me about that if you want.
