20.10.2022.

After 6 painful years

BSc computer science

Shit was tough as fck

Defended my thesis with grade 10/10 (or A in ur american grading system)

...

What do i do now i feel so lost

As rihanna once said, "work work work"

Find your notebook of side projects and evaluate them, maybe you can get more experience on your branch area and fill your cv, idk.

Party hard?

MSc next

Nice I am still sitting on my bachelor thesis q.q

Find a job and enjoy the money you are making :D

If getting the bachelor was hard, then maybe, going for the master may not be the absolutely best option available. So, if you don't have to go the standard career path in huge companies, then just start applying to smaller companies right now and see whether you can find one for which employees aren't just human resources.

@Oktokolo i want to work in web3 as a blockchain solidity dev. And almost no company in the shit country i live works in web3. I have beginner experience in web3 (solidity language) and no experience in actually working in it. It's something i started learning recently. So can i even get a job as solidity developer with little to no experience (because of my degree) or do i need to learn it hardcore first before applying?

The only person who can figure out what you want to do with your life is you.

Why six years? Bachelor level is only four in most places.

@kamen op spent two years on the toilet judging by his recent rants. "Shit was tough as fck."

@kamen covid started in 2020 when i was about to graduate the last 5 exams and it messed up my plans that had to be delayed for +2 more years

@b2plane dont feel bad. The financial crash of 2008 happened right as a lot of people were graduating into the job market.

Really hobbled a lot of people.

6 years of BSc was painful? Try working in the industry on shitty code for 6 years. Good luck!

On a Rick Sanchez tone of voice, choose your favorite:

a) "You do *Burp* spreadsheets..."
b) "You do *Burp* projects with Javascript"
c) "You do *Burp* find jobs on dubious startups"
d) "You do *Burp* legacy code..."

Jokes aside, you could start a smart project to make a portfolio of skills, idk man.

@AndroidJester its 4 years

@AndroidJester it's as long as it takes you 😉 I wouldn't be surprised if some people complete it in one or two years. Unless it's actually a requirement to sit still in class for four years, but that would be dumb.

@b2plane If i remember correctly, Solidity is only used in contracts for the Ethereum Blockshain although it isn't actually a good language for code that can't be updated and decides about where money goes...

Regardless of the language being unfit for the job, there aren't that much jobs in that niche market anyways as the whole bubble relies on copypasting and slightly modifying example implementations. Best job opportunities in that market are the illegal and half-illegal ones - but they require almost no coding skills and are all about OpSec, marketing and not having a conscience...

Despite there definitely being shittons of money in crypto - i would still advice to go somehwere else.

@Oktokolo ill just go for web3 mostly because of shitton of money and highest salary i ever seen. I dont care if its a bubble thats about to pop. The technology of how it works is interesting. Can you stop bitcoin? Can the government or anyone cancel bitcoin? It can't be deleted. If i spot an opportunity where i can earn a large amount of money I'll take it as long as its not too illegal. Because im tired of being broke for 25 years or working for a miserable web2 developer salary of 600$/month in my country

@b2plane Fair enough - rugpull the hell out of em bro.

Spend a weekend learning Python,

compete for jobs with 16 year olds.

Enjoy your expensive wall ornament!

Just build the next Facebook son. Back in my day college drop outside, who totally werent fronts for the pentagon and NSA, built facebook and uber and apps! Just make an app bro and get funded on shark tank bro.

Bro. Bro. Bro.

If I was gonna make a site, I'd skip making a site, make an app instead, and I'd train it to filter out bs LinkedIn spamvertisement positions.
Itd then only show QUALITY positions.

Like ajob metasearch engine.

And then like a vulture I'd have companies bid for limited placement ads.

Congratulations!

@sideshowbob76 thank you ❤️❤️❤️
