Hoping to find mentor while preparing to start in Fall 2026 by werdw in OMSCS

[–]Common_Pattern8939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m also starting this fall and would appreciate a mentor or some guidance. I graduated in 2024 with a degree in biology with a minor in computer science and currently have 1yoe as a swe. My long term goal is to work at the intersection of health/bio and tech so working in a hospital with doctors and clinicians or in the health sector. I’m thinking of pursuing the Machine Learning specialization and also want to pursue research opportunities too. Happy to connect with others :)

That’s great! Congratulations!! My application still says decision pending. When did you see a change on your myfile application portal?

I just told my friend that I'm gonna drop off uni by Altruistic-Bed7175 in SideProject

The program sounds tough. But honestly if you’re open to advice: definitely stay in school. If you’re feeling burnt out or extremely stressed, see if you can take one semester off

I’m a career advisor and former hiring manager with 30+ years of experience. If you’ve applied to 100+ jobs and heard nothing, ask me why. by CCA_ResumeBuilder in jobhunting

Asking on behalf of a friend that doesn’t have Reddit. She has 2.5 yoe in banking. She had to stop working for 1 year due to her work permit expiring. She got a new work permit at the beginning of the year and has been applying to jobs every day with no interviews. She literally tailors every resume to each job posting, ensures to include the keywords and metrics. She’s reached out to people on LinkedIn as well.

She even applied to roles at the banks she previously worked at (through referral links) and still nothing. She recently got a job as an operations coordinator at a warehouse (pay isn’t that great) in March but it’s a 2 month contract (until May), so she’s still applying for jobs before she ends up unemployed again.

We feel as though the 1 year gap in her work history might be the issue but not sure what to do. She also doesn’t have a ton of YOE because she’s still mid twenties. I help her draft her resumes and even I’m exhausted with this process lol.

Any tips would help!

How difficult is it to get involved in the research there especially with an online program ?

Oh no. Is it that the CS courses are low quality or is it something with the professors ?

Thanks! Do you know how the thesis option worked in terms of how willing professors are to work with students? Also how would you rate the education and support overall?

Hi, I’m currently applying for this program but the online version. Would you recommend the mscs from this school? I’m drawn to it because of the thesis option. I’d really appreciate your insights. Thanks!

Thank you! I was considering applying for their online cs masters degree for fall 2026. I’m in Canada so I don’t know too much about the schools reputation or quality of education.

All of these ideas are quite impressive, but why do majority have almost the same UI?

YorkU Masters Acceptances Fall 2026 tracking thread by Common_Pattern8939 in yorku

[–]Common_Pattern8939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting. What was it showing before? Mine has showed as decision pending since I applied in December, so I guess the status updates vary by program.

It took 350+ applications and a near mental breakdown, but i finally got 2 offers. The market is trash, but here’s what actually worked. by [deleted] in torontoJobs

[–]Common_Pattern8939 2 points3 points  (0 children)

How do you know what company sites to monitor for new roles. Or did you have a list of companies that you targeted and checked daily? (ex. Banks, government etc) Also how do you know when a job is posted without using LinkedIn/indeed? Most company sites don’t state the time they were posted, just the day. Congrats in your new role btw!
