I am a Master's student in computer science and came from India in Fall 2022, I don't have an internship for the summer semester. I applied to many opportunities but only got rejections, I work as a part-time angular developer at my university which is UTD. I want to bag a full-time job before...

typical work day?

I'm a freshman at Webster University for computer science and don't know much about jobs or internships available in the computer science field. I have taken programming one this semester.

How do you decide what to do with your life? I don’t know what I want to major in and do with my life. How does one determine what they’re passionate about?

How do you further in your field if not given the resources to pursue further education?

I am looking into majoring in computer science when I go to college and hope for a job that I personally can find fun and have a stable amount of income. #computer-science #computer-programming

What programming language is most looked for from companies hiring? #programming

Everyone asks me what I am going to major or minor in, in college and I still have no idea. I do not even know where to start on deciding what I want to be. #help #undecided #future

I'm in highschool and about to start the college application process, but when I think about what major I want to be in and what school best supports that major it's difficult because many colleges say "computer science" or "computer engineering" and I don't understand the difference. How do I...

I really like biology and would like to go into the biomedical field, but I don't know if I am right for it. #bio #science #stem #biology #biotechnology

Is the computer science job market going to continue to grow or is there a surplus of people studying computer science and taking most of the future jobs? #computer-science

I realize that there are some jobs that require that you have experience and a way to show that. However, if you are straight out of college and the only real experience you have is what you did in college, is this enough?

I am currently in my second year of college, and I still am undecided on what to get my degree in. I have taken personality tests, spoke to counselors, spoke to friends but I still feel as if I am lost and my heart doesn't know what it wants. I need help. #psychology #career-counseling #sociology

Why do you need communication skills to get this job? I mean, don't you usually just do your part of the team? #engineering #science #computer #career-details

Years ago, I earned a degree in engineering science. Then I spent the next 20 years working in retail. Now I'm looking to switch careers - and I really don't want to have to spend a fortune in schooling when I already have a BS (and a BA in history, BTW). No engineering organization will look...

Hello! I'm currently a freshman university student, and I send a lot of emails through my university email, to professors and university staff alike. I've done research on the right ways to email professors, reading tons and tons of articles but a Google search can't seem to help me. It's a...

Want to know because after college I want to what employers are really looking for. #marketing

Need to know when the time comes. #professor

I am applying to positions, but have had recruiters make comments to my resume as not being as a highlight to employers, mostly I present myself as a doer and not an achiever. I just want to know what are some things I can do to improve my chances at obtaining a job, I mean I haven't even...

I am working on my new resume and I want to try to get the attention of the employer so I am not passed because my resume is ordinary. #criminal-justice #recruiting #hiring #homeland-security #job-application

I just want to know what direction to move in besides just looking for employment myself. #career-path #recruiting #social-networking

I have a Bachelor's in Sociology, minor in International Relations, and a Master's in Criminal Justice in Homeland Security. What should my searches involve? I am willing to move anywhere. #recruiting #social-networking

I have an opportunity to attend a job fair, but for one day, the amount seems to be a little extreme. I just wanted to know are these expenses worth it considering the connections one may make. Especially when the job fair is Women in Aviation and my Master's degree is in Criminal Justice in...

I'll be starting my first CS class this coming semester and I'm just wondering if I would be fine in the class without any prior programming experience. #computer-science

I'm currently interested in majoring in both of them and am wondering how I would be able to mix the two of them. #college #computer-science #business #career #career-choice

I'm asking because I feel like I'll end up changing my career path if Im not motivated or enjoying my path enough. I would like to hear words from others to get an insight of what its really like in college. #college #career-choice

Thought it would be nice to study another subject along with my major #computer-science #undergraduate

In high school, my GPA was around a 3.3 unweighted and my SAT was a 1570/2400. Is it possible for me to get accepted into a top notch school such as Cornell and Carnegie Mellon? I'm currently at a community college and my GPA is a 4.0; I've competed in two hackathons (Will attend more) and won...
