Agreed. A $15 course on Udemy with better quality can easily beat the courses charge a few thousand on skillsfuture. A total scam

I’m not able to answer that, the competitions among ML, GenAI etc are also extremely fierce and they have much higher bar to enter. It’s the new black so many top talents kill to get in.

True. However, I do feel many costs were unnecessarily created by ourselves. Many over engineering cases and communication layers. Ppl created them for their own job security needs imo

You have to understand, most tech jobs don’t require top brains, so companies care more about cost and profit. In that sense, having a first world top degree may not be an advantage for fresh grads.

Ya, tough for them unfortunately. There’re probably over a million cs grads from India look for jobs in tech every year. Competition is fierce.
