[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]At graduation? Hearing CS is having a harder time.[/quote]

Harder time than what?

Since your post specifically says a job “in their field”…I guarantee you that every humanities, physics, math, etc. major is having an infinitely harder time because last I saw there aren’t many history, philosophy, physicist jobs available (nor were there ever).[/quote]

The field for history and philosophy is any field that needs people who can think critically, read large amounts, analyze it, and communicate findings. [/quote]

No it isn’t…that’s a job that may be suited to those majors, but the field for a history major is working as a historian (working at museums, national archives, etc.) or as a philosopher (professor, author, etc.).

Hence why OP mentioned CS majors are having a hard time…when at my kid’s school, 50% of the CS grads work in consulting or VC or PE or hedge funds.

If someone asked a history major if they work in their field and they say yes, I work in banking on Wall Street…most would scratch their head over that answer.[/quote]
