Is a 4 yr degree outside of stem a meme?
On one hand I see everyone on linkedin having seemingly high paying jobs. On the other, it feels really scammy to have to pay so much. Also, you'll probably forget most of what you study too. Jobs have higher barrier to entries. 44% of 22-27 yr old college grads are underemployed too and id probably be one of them knowing my shit luck. 7/10 graduate with 29k+. Wouldnt be the biggest of deals if jobs paid well, but they dont. 30% pay hardship wages and 32% pay livable wages. Yes, you have higher chances for good jobs with a 4 yr degree, but even then, chances are far from "good". In the same time, your probably are gonna be in a dead end job for life without a degree.
Fucked if you do. Fucked if you dont. I dont know what to do.

STEM is a meme. The only career path that won't make you want to kys is business.

t. fell for the engineering meme and tried to rebound by falling for the CS meme

if you're still in high school; do a co-opl, get to know an industry a bit, then set-up your own shop.

I had a job secured before I graduated anon. The market is still very hot for prospective employees rn, this should continue into the 2020’s if Trump can get re-elected and pull these trade deals off.

>How to easily secure a job in college
1.) 3.5GPA or greater:
2.) Have an internship under your belt.
3.) Some sort of extra-curricular bs (professional clubs, conferences, honor societies etc.
4.) Don’t be an autistic sperg.
