I will add my experience. I graduated with a CS degree from a well known state school a few months ago, I have been applying to so many jobs I lost count, but after being ghosted to even entry level jobs I have pretty much given up on my CS dreams… why should I basically work myself to death for a field that seems like it doesn’t even care about me? Note I had two internship-style experiences while in school, making up the significant portion of my resume. I’m happier working at a restaurant and enjoying my free time for the moment, touching computers on the side but more importantly pursuing my non-computer interests. This won’t work forever as I plan to have children but for now I am existing and happy doing other things. and i am putting a lot of my free time in to convicing my peers still in school that their degree won’t be worth sh!t when they graduate
