Build a diverse network made up of your peers while in school. Don't get caught up in the competition trap, thinking you always have to be better than the next guy to get ahead. It can work, but as they say, it's lonely at the top

I doubt coding is the only thing you can do. A lot of us get into coding because we are good at problem solving. If you can define your long term goals, and make an inventory of your resources, I bet you, along with the help of your family

Wow. Keep your last question, turn it into an emphatic statement, and throw away the rest. Your education begins today. If you'd ever had a share of something the hedgies decided to short into oblivion, you would understand this.

The problem is that people tend to look for solutions before they truly know the problem. Practice searching for problems, at the lowest levels, again and again. This detective type skill will train your mind to break things down into manag

First of all, you need to find out what you are passionate about, which has been suggested already, but then you have to put in the work. This will open many doors, as people you want to meet understand that learning is important, sharing t

If you think management is feeding you bs, then I'd say it's time to bail. I watched and waited while several colleagues rotated in and out of the unit I belonged to. I didn't look into it at the time, but after this went on

I was an aerospace engineering washout. After a tough couple of semesters looking for direction, my counselor said there's a computer degree called Computer Applications, but it can only be your second major. Fine. I paired it with Eco
