How would I go about pursuing a STEM career?

I'm just genuinely interested #career #stem

Thank you comment icon Can you expand your question after having read Ken's post? Michael Marshall
Thank you comment icon I was really uncertain of what I wanted to do until AFTER writing hundreds of essays for mostly STEM scholarships! Anyways, I saw the great opportunity and jumped on the STEM wagon. I met with the CEO of Going Merry, Charlie (Stanford Business Graduate) who has a passion to help students graduate without debt. Also got to meet some sponsors who were doctors, engineers, etc. If you are motivated you can start to earn $$$ too! Going Merry makes things easier, but you still need to put in the hard work! My advice is put in the effort now so you do not have to worry in the future! https://www.goingmerry.com/c/caitlinp-l0dy (free swag referral)The big take away is pick something you are passionate to study! Then network and dedicate yourself to learning! You will find something Caitlin

Lai’s Answer

Hi Morgan, If you like computer science/coding, I found attending the hands on workshops very helpful. For example the Summer Immersion program provided by Girls who Code. https://girlswhocodesm.smapply.io/ or local hackathons in your city : https://www.hackathon.com/. You will learn a lot by working with a team and come up with different solutions together. This will help preparing you to look for a job in the future.
