Hi everyone,
I have a technical background and currently work as a Developer. I’m planning to pursue a Master’s degree in Australia and would really appreciate some advice on which field would be better for my career and future growth.

I’m currently considering:
Information Technology
Artificial Intelligence / Machine Learning (AI/ML)
Computer Science

Since I already have development experience, which option would you recommend based on current technology trends, future career opportunities, and long-term growth?
I’d especially appreciate advice from people who have studied and are working in the Australian tech industry.
Thanks in advance for your suggestions and experiences!

Hey if you’re free rn. Nearby Dhayari, Nanded city. Feel free to dm me. We can make quick plan to chill.(preferably f)

My background: I worked for 2 years as a professional at a top-tier product multinational company (MNC). I worked as developer and automated testing.I left that role to look for a better position, higher growth, and a better salary package.
However, the job market has been incredibly tough, and my search has stretched out much longer than anticipated. I am now at the 1-year mark of unemployment. Despite my strong foundational experience at a well-known company, I am finding it difficult to land interviews or get past the initial screening phase.
For those who have successfully navigated this:
How do you explain a 1-year gap to recruiters without sounding like you were rejected by everyone else?
Should I explicitly state on my resume or cover letter that I was upskilling or selectively job-hunting?
Does having a top MNC on my resume lose its value the longer the gap grows?
I would love to hear from recruiters, hiring managers, or anyone who managed to land a great role after a long gap.
Thank you in advance for your insights!

I am joining La Trobe University for the upcoming November 2026 intake. I am looking to connect with anyone else starting in the October/November cohort, as well as current students who are already on campus.
I am currently researching my living arrangements and would appreciate some realistic insights on housing. Specifically:
On-Campus vs. Off-Campus: Is it better to secure official La Trobe student accommodation early, or look for private student hostels/share-houses nearby?
Neighborhoods: Which nearby suburbs are the safest and most convenient for transit to the main campus?
Living Costs: What is the average weekly rent right now for a decent single room in a shared apartment?
If you are a current student or an incoming fresher dealing with the same timeline, please drop a comment or message me. Would love to get some guidance before I arrive.
Thanks!
