Thanks, guys. I noted in my comment on another thread that I may start my own thread to make my question more visible. Mocha, thank you for the link!

I am in an experimental psychology Ph.D. program. My research is on personality and social pscyhology in the workplace. Do you think that this degree would be marketable as an I/O degree? Would a post doc in I/O help if not? I thought about switching programs after my MA this year but that would be a huge hastle seeing as I would have to leave the state. If I could do everything with a Ph.D. in experimental psychology that I could do with a Ph.D. in I/O then I would much rather stay here. Help! I would also like to add that some of my courses are Business or MGT oriented in the hopes that this would make me even more marketable.
