I thought I would provide an update, since many people have viewed my thread and probably are curious about my progress. I was able to find a full time job as a supply chain analyst in a large retail company a couple of weeks ago.
I mostly work by creating SQL queries and making dashboard by...
With the internship I honestly feel a bit ignored. Because it is remote we only communicate through email, teams and some online videos. I am being paid but they seem disinterested I do not know. Maybe it is because of the work from home situation.
1. They are BS MATH, MS Math
2. I asked them but they not give me an answer. They said we will have more interns over the summer but I want a full time job. I wish I could talk to the hiring manager I sent him some emails but this is like a remote position.
3. I considered it. But I heard it is...
I think my post yesterday was too negative. I thought if you get an internship you would be offered a full time role at the end. But I do not think that will happen so I may have to get a "non college" degree job to pay for tuition.I think I made some progress from last year but its been...
I do not know what to do even I feel like sure I could take out 30,000 of student loans to finish the degree but then there is no chance of anyone hiring you. Everyone want 5+ of experience and no all sort of skills that you need an iq of 120 to learn that is why I am so skeptical about college...
I thought I would make an update.
I started my MS Industrial Degree. I been having mixed feelings. I am about halfway through but I been working full time and working on this degree part time. Recently I got a full time paid industrial engineer internship.
But now I am having mixed thoughts. As...
Yes industrial engineer/OR do have to know a little bit about software. For example they have to know some of the libraries such as as google OR tools and scipy in python to use optimization strategies. It does seems like CS student would probably have more knowledge of lower level programming...
I started a degree in MS operations research but now am having second thoughts.
I took a class in statistics and optimization using linear algebra. But what I enjoy most is programming in python.I am
also teaching myself c++.
People say industrial engineer is more about analyzing data while...
Learning from textbook is not the best. I prefer watching youtube videos and then reading about the topic on wikipedia or the brillian math wiki. The problem is that the higher you go the harder it is to find online lessons. Plato(the ancient greek) I think he said do not bother reading instead...
I don't know I also feel cs is dying. I am studying OR but I feel like the math does not apply to real life scenarios. For example I took a class called mathematical statistics and we have prove simple things like VAR(X+Y)=VAR(X)+VAR(Y)+2COV(X,Y) and the we do not learn things like python in the...
Needle in a hay stack. That kind of scares me. I am doing operations research and I thought maybe I could get a job in optimization like linear programming. Linear programming or integer programming would be a nice mix of math and cs. I just love the simplex algorithm.
My problem with STEM jobs is I feel they are so picky. So its like what do you prioritize on. For example I saw a job for data analyst for data analyst at telsa. The requirement were sql, python, strong interpersonal skills, strong communication skills, an ability to think outside of the box...
#OP
I am having the same problem as OP getting that entry level job is tough don't feel to bad I meet at my school people with bs in computer engineering who struggle to put food on the table.
I mean Georgia Tech cannot create jobs at these companies. I know they do have connections with some of the companies in Atlanta like Delta and Coca Cola but they cannot guarantee you a job or an internship. I do not know where I am going to be honest.
Like I I cannot really think of anything...
