Apr 16, 2012 at 19:20 comment added Thierry Zell To be fair to Gunnar: Mr A's questions were a bit ambiguous: "is it prudent to apply?" and "does the topic matter?" are two different questions, and the parallel that Mr A drew between them muddied the issue slightly.

Apr 16, 2012 at 8:50 comment added Gunnar Þór Magnússon I apologize if I came off as flippant. My intention was to make an optimistic comment on Mr. A's first question "Is it prudent for Mr. A to apply to these jobs anyway?" and say "Go for it". I appear to have failed.
Apr 16, 2012 at 7:54 comment added Filippo Alberto Edoardo I apologize for stepping inside the discussion, but I think Gunnar Magnusson's comment is a little bit misplaced, as the question is about "dissertation topic" and not really about "should I apply for a job in an industry" which is entirely Mr A's choice.
Apr 16, 2012 at 7:49 comment added Gunnar Þór Magnússon Mr. A might not get those jobs if he applies to them, but he'll definitely not get them if he doesn't apply to them. Does Mr. A want to get a job with positive probability?
