thought will get a good job just by computer science degree, 2 years in and my misconception faded away T_T

are you making more than minimum wage though?

Games changed. Everyone has a degree now - how do you stand out ?

@Hazarth still completing my degree

@Burgundxyz i intend to find out

@NekkoYato Unironically, this is what my start up aims to find out too.

The answer is networking and projects.

The even better answer is networking with people at the company you want to apply at and tailoring your application towards it (i.e. building projects which are about what the company does, tailoring your resume, going to related networking events etc. )

@Burgundxyz a simple answer would also be to work in the field while studying.
At least where I'm at there are a lot of people who just wanna finish their degree asap and don't work during that because they don't neccessarily need to.

But it seems to me that even if you can pull it off cashwise and wouldn't have the time to work it is still important to find some work while your studying even if that means studying half a year or a year later.

Because that makes a difference. People with degree aren't all that useful in the begining. People with degrees and work experience surely are
