Hi
Anyone out there who got into a graduate training program after not completing their phd?
Any advice most appreciated!
Thanks.

Do you mean in an organisation, e.g HSBC graduate scheme?

My advice would be get good at psychometric tests by practicing them online

I deferred from a doctorate to an MSc and just got accepted onto a graduate program - as well as having a competing offer for more money!! I'm in engineering, though... I was lucky to say that I did an MSc with my time, it will be tricky to say what you did with yours if you want to cover it up.? Other than that just sell yourself - you are your most valuable asset!

I agree with Sneaks, for most Graduate training programmes, having a relevant degree helps, but also being good at psychometric tests is just as important as some of them can require experience in uncommon areas of study.
