I am a sophmore CompE at UIUC, and all my friends have internships lined up at big tech for next summer while I'm still doing interviews and applying. I wonder if its because I go to a public school and maybe if I worked in harder in highschool I coulda went to MIT or something. Do you think its still possible for my TC to be 200k straight out of college. Please let me know!

Im currently a CS junior and have been applying to internships. I have personal projects as proof of proficiency in my listed skills however I do not have any relevant work experience/prior internship in CS. My cs department reached out to me about becoming a teaching assistant/lab assistant for lower level CS courses. Is this opportunity worth my time and effort and would look good on resume/help me get an internship? Thx for your time

What made you know for sure that software engineering is something you’re passionate about and want to pursue? What made you choose it over other careers?

Hey baxate, what coding YouTube’s do you recommend to expand coding vocabulary and knowledge. For examples YouTubes that go more in depth for let’s say data structures and algorithms. Thanks!

Hey Baxate I’m majoring in Comp sci and want to get into software engineering do you think it is a better idea to major in software engineering or will I be able to get into software engineering from my comp sci degree? Thanks.
