I feel overwhelmed by the tech industry right now
I started off my interest in tech through web development and looking forward to being a fullstack web developer however too oversaturated. started learning languages to be software engineering focused and but its also oversaturated. however i started developing an interest in HCI and also maybe computer vision
as a cc transfer i did so many ecs and work with personal projcts and student orgs. 3.78 gpa and was rejected from 8 out of the 10 schools i applied to. including all schools with good undergrad programs in HCI and computer vision
i couldnt land a single internship. and ngl i feel like im loosing my spark for coding bcs every single field im interested is too niche or too oversaturated. and every single workshop i attend feels like an AI ad. i know AI is a great tool but jesus christ why is every wrkshop like "AI knows everything about me and my family and thats why I love it! AI is the future! give AI all your information and checkout my new integrated b2b cb2ncbcb start up"
my god.
idk if i should keep pushing as a current CS major interested in hci to get my masters in HCI.
or just move on to another major cuz idk if this is a good for for me anymore. idrc about the money, i do like computer science but ive lost hope over the past few months.
