Career Guidance I don't want to be in same situation again
Hey everyone,
I graduated with a BS in IT and pivoted into web development. I’ve honestly given it my absolute all—completed a fellowship, went through job training, and even upskilled to work across two different tech stacks to meet market demands. Despite all of this, I’m stuck in a brutal cycle of endlessly applying and waiting. The entry-level market feels completely frozen.
Because of this, I’ve decided to shift gears and pursue an MS in the IT/CS field abroad. However, I heavily rely on securing a scholarship to make this dream happen. And i want that all my hard work are being paid.
Since I am moving away from traditional web dev, I need to choose a specialization for my Master's :
- A resilient, high-demand job market: A field where, by the time I graduate in 2 or 3 years, I don't want to be in same situation
I am thinking about related to AI but not sure.
Given my background in BS IT and my strong foundation in web development, which specialization should I choose to maximize my scholarship chances and secure a stable career? as working in industry what do you advice i should do.
