Ask HN: Proxy PhD Candidate

2 pointsby yogodojoabout 5 years ago
I&#x27;ve always wanted to do a PhD, but student loan debt and a below-par undergraduate GPA have pushed back that dream. In order to circumvent doing a PhD and earn (better) at the same time, I&#x27;ve worked as a research engineer in some of the best labs in academia, and I write papers&#x2F;short-papers&#x2F;posters in my free time.<p>I currently have too much of free time at my current job and I want to write papers. I&#x27;m domain agnostic, and could potentially read any paper that doesn&#x27;t have too much of math. If there is anyone out here, who wants a remote proxy-PhD candidate, please comment below. I can send my CV on request.
