I would like if you explained what you mean by quality of graduates. The problem i see with regards to job postings are just unnecessary levels of specificity. Too much focus on specific brands of tools rather than concepts. Just because new grads have not used the specific stack or tool you use in your company does not make them bad graduates, it was always the case that people learn to specificity on the job but now companies are asking for exact frameworks out of college, just plain stupid requirements especially for entry level jobs. You are now as a student supposed to now project into the future speculate on what tech stack would be popular at graduation in order to land a job. Just ridiculous.

Really good info. Its so different than when I entered in the field 30 years ago (not in it anymore). It was so stable and relatively easy to get in compared to now. Now it seems barrier to entry is comparable to law or medicine, with added necessity of always keeping up with the changes.

People have to start become Masters at their craft. If you were a Master you would already know where all the opportunities were in your field, years before everyone else. I can't give another man advice on his own career path. That's up to him. I'd consider another field if people are ignoring your tech resumes.
Jeez man. I had this whole ambition to get into the field but outta nowhere came this AI and layoffs, oversaturated market. I'm about to get into the trades and thats it
what you are effectively saying is the requirements for a true entry level position...are enough for you to have started your own small project/business. It blows the big one, but yeah you basically have to be a valuable employee in your field coming out of college, you don't have the opportunity to show them you are after you are hired anymore.

As a first-year college student studying CS, I’m seeking advice on how to effectively learn a programming language, work on projects, and land internships without falling into tutorial hell. My interests include data science, data analytics, business intelligence analysis, and both front-end and back-end development (mainly back-end). Will I need to compete with master’s degree students in data science? If you were starting from scratch and aiming to stay ahead of your peers, what steps would you take? Apologies for the long message I’m just worried my projects and efforts might fall short and want to ensure I’m improving efficiently to succeed. And I apologize you did give information on what to do.
Go through a book on python. Books are so unbelievably underrated. Find a good python book, go through it, don't just read it, actually code out the examples, take notes and try things. By the end you'll be better with python than pretty much all your peers. Then just start projects. Decide on something you want to build, preferably not too complicated for your first project. If you really grind from now till graduation you should have a pretty damn impressive portfolio relative to your peers. A lot of people are going through college getting their degree with no clue how little they're learning and how cooked they're going to be upon graduation. You have time that's your best friend, don't waste it. Also if you're not genuinely passionate about CS then GTFO. The fields peak is in the past.
i’ll make a reply to this with a video and address your message point by point because there many red flags here the aim is to give you clarity without spoon feeding you the answer because you’re the only one who knows what to do after things get unstuck
I saw your video and as someone who is in college first year working on a side project atm, I found the content super damn helpful. I wanted to ask if you knew of any roadmaps to learning the fundamentals, I know some fundementals like logic reasoning and the engineering process in terms of getting a product off the ground and the continual process of refinement. But I want to delve deeper, deeper into the coding concepts that'll help me get my game off the ground a bit
thank you for putting out this video. Ngl I was pretty discouraged due to the job market being so bad. I’m taking a gap in my studies, but this video made me want to really lock in.
Hey thanks about the commodity of information. Either though I'm not in STEM it is still very important about not wasting time on the fluff and do real world application of the skills.
I’m clueless on how to get into tech now without 3 years exp. I’ve been trying to network like crazy and they still don’t have open positions. I found out in an internship that they’re paying them not that much Can you go over a vid on what to say in DMs?
@@arun1995plus1 I usually don’t say much since I’m clueless(for context: on LinkedIn). I make small talk or ask how about their experiences at the job or company I’m interested in and some stuff I would need to know. I try not to just ask “hey can I get a referral” 🤣at the start
My take on AI is that it commoditize knowledge even more. But what's different between applicants are wisdom that is acquired from projects or experience to know how to utilize said knowledge and how to contribute to teams. And for me I don't think senior engineers gain much benefit from AI imo it kinda gets in my way,

Totally unrelated field, but the applicant quality coming out of schools is decreasing rapidly in my field as well. I believe it is a wider systemic education issue. I am increasingly getting degree holding applicants that cannot spell or use punctuation.
Well good to know i'm wasting my time going to college for IT 😅 I've switched majors so many times and I just wanna make decent money man i'm almost 30 and have no actual skills cause i spent the last 10 years in customer service and food service.. It feels like there's genuinely no path to just learn something and get a job and learn about how to do that job. It's pretty much if you aren't graduating top of your class or already in tech there's no way in
depends on what you define as "knows nothing about data science" 1-2 years of concentrated study and that assumes you're dedicated. You need to learn A LOT the basics about programming, data, statistics, the philosophy behind why you're doing what you're doing, and each of those take time. its not about going over the info once but developing some sort of understanding and intuition about it
@@arun1995plus1 It's literally not, that's the entire point... A CV is your full history and depending on how far you went in school can be 10+ pages long.
I dont understand. Interviewers like you complain candidates he is facing don't have any idea about the job. Yet there is also a big application rejection problem for people like me who was so obsessed about the field. Is there a screening problem? Are HR recruiters f***ing up? Btw I gave up and studying for CPA internship because I have relatives who can help me land my first job in that field.
maybe most people suck? maybe they dont and it's a screening issue? regardless you gotta just play the hand you're dealt and move on with it like you did
@@dumblockdubbed2455 Yes the were lmao. I graduated along some people that barely knew how to code but we were lucky enough to be at the right place at the right time. Early 2010s jobs were pretty much guaranteed with a CS/Engineering degree. A lot of them are in senior/management positions nowadays.
@arun1995plus1 New grads rarely start in their field of study. They may spend years applying for jobs while underemployed, and living with parents or roommates. China PhDs have a 20% unemployment rate.
I constantly see programming people complaining about the job market on UA-cam. It's an entire genre. I don't understand what you guys do. I also don't understand why you earn so much, just working from home most of the time. Is your job stressful? I work with spatial data for a living. I draft construction plans. If it doesn't fit on a map, I don't get it. Anyways... We could use a lot more drafters, but the world doesn't seem to give a care since the wages are not at CS levels... Something has to be said tho, luck plays a huge part.
there are different types of hard work, tech work isn’t easy! my job can be stressful and i can work long hours my channel isnt going to be pigeonholed into this lmao
so annoying, cuz you are wrong, the quality of college graduates has increased, people used to get hired for knowing how to write a for loop back in the early 2010s, lmao at that concept today, now you need to know how to do leetcode mediums and hards
@esparda07 Massive difference. There are lots of specialized roles in software. - Web developer - Data scientist - DevOps engineer - AI engineer - Database admin - Etc ...all have specialized skills sets, tools jargon, etc. Yes they are all "software developers" but it's like saying a neurologist and a psychiatrist and a pharmacist are all doctors. Yes, they are all doctors, but they are useless in each other's roles. And each of these dev roles also break down into further specialization.
Data scientists are not even meant to do software development. The only reason they write code is just as a tool to analyze data. What you have in mind is probably machine learning engineers.
I am tech recruiter.. and all I can say is that: DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO HAS NOT WORKED IN RECRUTEMENT. Clicked on on this video just so what people are saying out there and I am disapointed

ironic that an adblock guy would be so deeply involved in the neoliberal 'job market' brainrot ideology but eh. look at his glasses.. all you need to know about this nerd is carried in his silly hat and glasses

It feels like there's genuinely no path to just learn something and get a job and learn about how to do that job. It's pretty much if you aren't graduating top of your class or already in tech there's no way in
Nursing is the way
@@abdoulgueye8630 I am horrible with anything medical. I get queezy and pass out at the sight of blood and all that
I'm just not going to go to college ever, and I'll live with family. All I want is a remote job doing anything.
go live life bro
How is 4 years of studying the bare minimum?
are you really studying for 4 years straight?
Are you single ? You’re handsome asf
Young Rizzo, I respect the game💃🏾
lmao I am - how do dms on youtube work 😳
How long would it take someone who knows nothing about data science to be able to have the adequate tools to apply for a data science role?
1-2 years as per legit requirements but one can get lucky
depends on what you define as "knows nothing about data science"
1-2 years of concentrated study and that assumes you're dedicated. You need to learn A LOT
the basics about programming, data, statistics, the philosophy behind why you're doing what you're doing, and each of those take time.
its not about going over the info once but developing some sort of understanding and intuition about it
@arun1995plus1 Ok gotcha. I got the programming part down, but at this point I need to study other attributes involved. Thank you for your help.
Most CVs are 4+ pages dude, a CV includes your entire life history lol.
A resume is a short snapshot of that tailored for the job you apply for.
potato potato
@@arun1995plus1 It's literally not, that's the entire point...
A CV is your full history and depending on how far you went in school can be 10+ pages long.
@@Digger-Nicknah that's bollocks they're basically the same
@@IIllIIIlll Yes a tailored 1 page snapshot is exactly the same as a 4+ page full work and academic history
You sure are a smart one!
thank god i was missing my daily dose of doom and gloom.
your welcome
Great info, so many people are doing STEM degrees rn its so overstatured. Btw are you indian or black?
yeah it’s tough to stand out man
i’m whatever you want me to be
🤦♂️

LMAOOOO

So much truth here
I dont understand. Interviewers like you complain candidates he is facing don't have any idea about the job. Yet there is also a big application rejection problem for people like me who was so obsessed about the field. Is there a screening problem? Are HR recruiters f***ing up? Btw I gave up and studying for CPA internship because I have relatives who can help me land my first job in that field.
maybe most people suck?
maybe they dont and it's a screening issue?
regardless you gotta just play the hand you're dealt and move on with it
like you did
It goes down in the DM

Arrogant tone here, you were a newbie once too. No need to talk down
The newbies of the past aren't like the newbies of today
@@dumblockdubbed2455 Yes the were lmao. I graduated along some people that barely knew how to code but we were lucky enough to be at the right place at the right time. Early 2010s jobs were pretty much guaranteed with a CS/Engineering degree. A lot of them are in senior/management positions nowadays.

Beats retail, or Amazon warehouse.
sure ? is that helpful for a new grad trying to break in though?
@arun1995plus1 New grads rarely start in their field of study. They may spend years applying for jobs while underemployed, and living with parents or roommates. China PhDs have a 20% unemployment rate.

I constantly see programming people complaining about the job market on UA-cam. It's an entire genre. I don't understand what you guys do. I also don't understand why you earn so much, just working from home most of the time. Is your job stressful? I work with spatial data for a living. I draft construction plans. If it doesn't fit on a map, I don't get it. Anyways... We could use a lot more drafters, but the world doesn't seem to give a care since the wages are not at CS levels... Something has to be said tho, luck plays a huge part.
there are different types of hard work, tech work isn’t easy! my job can be stressful and i can work long hours
my channel isnt going to be pigeonholed into this lmao
Bruh just lock in
so annoying, cuz you are wrong, the quality of college graduates has increased, people used to get hired for knowing how to write a for loop back in the early 2010s, lmao at that concept today, now you need to know how to do leetcode mediums and hards
thanks for the video idea - i'll link it when i make it
When in doubt just become a barber
sure ill subscribe why the hell not

I still don't believe "Data Scientist" is a thing. Everyone is just a Software Dev.
bro please don’t embarrass yourself like that
@esparda07
Massive difference. There are lots of specialized roles in software.
- Web developer
- Data scientist
- DevOps engineer
- AI engineer
- Database admin
- Etc
...all have specialized skills sets, tools jargon, etc. Yes they are all "software developers" but it's like saying a neurologist and a psychiatrist and a pharmacist are all doctors. Yes, they are all doctors, but they are useless in each other's roles.
And each of these dev roles also break down into further specialization.
Data scientists are not even meant to do software development. The only reason they write code is just as a tool to analyze data. What you have in mind is probably machine learning engineers.
I am tech recruiter.. and all I can say is that: DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYONE WHO HAS NOT WORKED IN RECRUTEMENT. Clicked on on this video just so what people are saying out there and I am disapointed
Im confused, you are saying this guy doesn't know about tech because he's not a recruiter? Are you saying that being a recruiter means you have better know how of the work environment, work pressure, skills and the entire interview process?
@@zedbot123the job market. Work environment, skills needed in the market. I’ll give you an example. He said that you should have 1 page resume.. LOL I would read 15 pages if I have to. The more content you write the more you increase your chances. I’m too tired to explain this
@@annasantiago1867he’s talking about US tech market if you’re in other countries then it’s easy. But here it’s a mandatory practice of one page
