Amateur hacker here! Wanted to make this list for fun and my own amusement, and thought that HN might also enjoy it :)

Not wrong! The degree was always the stepping stone, and even for me I was always told work experience would make the difference. But now having graduated college 2 years early, with 2 high quality internships under my belt, my options are slim. Thankfully, I love what I do and don’t plan to ever stop doing it, but I feel bad for the people that “did everything right” and still aren’t landing jobs.

Ok apart from everyone saying "I can just smash letters" bro this game is FUN

Referenced unemployed new grad here! I think a lot of what contributes to this is the thought that a degree=employment for college students. We feel scammed, confused, and quite frankly just angry that this was the timing to graduate into.

As a CS student I have many thoughts around the reasoning for this (AI reducing need for junior engineers, oversaturated market from COVID bubble, opaque job requirements/too low of bar). As much as I'd like to believe it's just a skill difference on my side, it's hard to deny my peers' and friends' struggle around me. I don't want my livelyhood to come down to a numbers/chance game. But sadly, that's what it is looking like right now.

I appreciate the insight! I hope this isn't something I regret, mainly because the product just came out naturally from my character. I still love learning, and I plan to be a life-long scholar (part of why we are both likely on HN).

Despite the "speed running," I didn't actually give up too much. I managed to be a treasurer/photographer at the school fashion magazine, study abroad, make a huge amount of friends, and even land a really nice internship during my time here. It all was condensed into the 2 years, but I did do it all! I do hope that this becomes a choice that reflects who I am as I grow, rather than a regret later on. Either way, I'm still a teenager, and I'm sure this isn't the worst mistake a teenager can make :)

Hey everyone, Yash, writer of the article here! I truly believe in freedom of information and a lot of tips and tricks here were found through needless trial and error. Feel free to ask me any questions about whats up!
