<p>This sums up my experience. I can’t count the number of companies that requested to interview me, that I turned down because I already had enticing offers that I was considering. I don’t any other field(and I have friends graduating EE)have it as easy as CS guys.</p>
<p>QCStudent is right. Computer Science is booming like crazy! That’s what I tried to tell some people here in a thread who did CS in the 80s. Even with the H1-B visa, CS still has more opportunity than most(if not all) fields and that article just proves I was right! :)</p>
<p>I feel kind of bad for some people who want to have a success career yet major in stuff like business(super saturated). I always tell them to consider Computer Science or maybe CPE, EE, ME and forget about those business degrees.</p>
<p>That’s a really interesting and helpful article! Thanks for that! It’s interesting because where I live, there aren’t a huge amount of technoog-related jobs, especially computer science. But over in Seattle, it’s obvious there are a lot…</p>
<p>I graduated with a BS Computer Science. But if I were to do it all over again, I would major in EE and minor in CS. You CAN learn CS on your own with respect to coding/programming.</p>
<p>Those of us who worked in the 80s have seen both booms and the inevitable busts. If you’re still in school or have only been working for a few years, you might assume the current market is the norm and will last forever.</p>
<p>The job market for programmers was even better in the last half of the 90s, but it didn’t last.</p>
<p>I’m going to be a senior in high school next year, but I’m still interested in doing CS when I go to college. I took APCS last year, and I’m trying to build on that to gain experience and maybe build a portfolio.</p>
