CS is hiring, but just not like it used to, and today, you need to know how to incorporate AI into your work.

What CS internships are giving signing bonuses? I haven’t heard of that in 2 decades.


DD graduated in 2024. Had sign on bonuses for CS internships sophomore and junior summers. Two different places..one tech and one finance. Very typical for her classmates.

I don't believe you. What was the company?
You have one daughter, and I don't believe that you are talking to her friends about finances often. This seems completely fabricated, and I don't know why someone would make this up.


OK...whatever you want to believe. One was a FAANG and the other a major bank. No I did not talk to her friends about their internships, but she did so I heard the comparisons.

This is not OP's question. We don't want to hear about you, your child, or their friends.

Not at all surprising, this is typical and has been that way for years from top schools.


This has to be the same poster responding to themselves.

The PP is lying.


My DD received an internship from PayPal. No signing bonus but Paypal does give 9.5K for moving expense from DMV to San Jose.
