[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Med is always in demand. CS is not. Was hot soon to be cooler[/quote]

This is wholly inaccurate. The layoffs were across jobs and a few big companies and the people with CS backgrounds all had new jobs within a week. [/quote]

Just a beginning far from over. You make it sound like it’s over and done with.[/quote]

It’s more that people are lumping all jobs at tech companies as CS, and they’re not even close to being accurate. Very many of those jobs were non-technical and had nothing to do with computer science. Also, it’s a field that is hired at very many companies that aren’t FAANG and many of those have a lot of openings to fill those hires for the technical roles. Stating there is some issue with CS graduates getting hired is inaccurate and will remain so for a long time.[/quote]

Endless demand is what you are saying? Does that make sense to you? [/quote]

You’re making no sense. No one said endless demand. There is currently not concern that there will be not be jobs for new graduates. Demand for $400K salaries is a different discussion. [/quote]

How about demand in 4 years when DC's kid graduates? [/quote]

Or 10 years or 20 years down the road? Will it be as good as medicine? I think not. [/quote]

Nobody has a crystal ball. A lot of the "demand" in medicine is in places where people don't want to live and this will continue.[/quote]

Look at it like a gig.  If you move to where there is shortage you often get paid more and COL is much lower! This means that you can sock up savings in your early years of practice and get ahead before moving to your desired location.  [/quote]
