what’s the point of getting a degree if apparently you need all these other extraneous qualifications to get a proper job? networking, boot camps, certifications, training, programs, glass windows, button downs, on and on.
why can’t there be a program where i pay somebody and i get a proper salaried good job at the end? you know what i mean? i keep seeing like, even if you graduate with a prestigious degree, that’s still not enough to guarantee a decent living, a house with four walls and a yard and some trees and a dog, you have to shake some nebulous hands and attain more and more training to stay current, like i’m meant to actually be invested in a “career” for its own sake rather than something i can get money from to live a happy life
See if your university offers a co-op program. Those can often make it a lot easier to get a job after graduating. I did a 12 month placement which actually turned into a 16 month placement between my penultimate and final years of university. I ended up getting hired at the same organization once I graduated.
