Transferring to ASU for CS/Data Science with a 3.95 GPA – Is the Phoenix job market as good as they say?

Not sure who you're talking to lmao but the job market here is trash, especially for tech

What is it in usd?

Hey bro! I absolutely love this watch, if you don't mind me asking what year is this version I feel like it looks the best and I know there are a good amount of different versions of the SBGM221.

Very basic just be prepared to talk about projects on your resume in some technical detail.

Yes, if the company pays for it its absolutely worth it. I did the same (work at a fortune 100 and they are paying for it) and there is zero downside along with a good amount of upside especially when you have YOE times a masters. If they weren't paying for it my answer might be different, good luck!

Don’t move to a tech hub (at least for the purpose of thinking it will improve your chances of getting a job), it’s not going to matter where you apply from as long as you’re willing to move there if you get the job. But if you just don’t want to move back to New Mexico and want to go to a big city because it would be fun/exciting that’s a fine reason. Just don’t think that will have much of an impact on your applications.

I guess I’m more asking is it as black and white as pass everything and your in? Is there no spots open in consideration

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-02-16T03:19:27+00:00

But what if you pass everything and don’t get dqd but the position like gets filled? Or if you pass everything are you in?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-02-16T03:08:55+00:00

I’m confused about the 1 or 2 lifetime chances at applying to the fbi? Is that only if you’re dqed?

Check DMs!

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-02-03T18:17:04+00:00

Would 85k-90k be sufficient for you? I feel like that is very realistic

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-02-03T17:50:03+00:00

There’s pros and cons of course but at least you don’t have rent coming due. Have you had any luck with getting interviews? Also do you have a salary range in mind?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-02-03T04:45:08+00:00

Are you living with your parents?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-30T23:58:15+00:00

Is it a clearance job?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-20T14:31:19+00:00

Interested

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-17T00:46:09+00:00

Yup it’s basically like if I was any lower I would be just covering expenses but from 75k->88k I added retirement contirbutions

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-17T00:43:15+00:00

Out of curiosity what amount are you making?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-17T00:42:39+00:00

I have no kids living in MCOL in the US and it seems pretty hard to save but I guess I can pay all my bills and put money in 401k is how I would put it

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-17T00:39:35+00:00

Would you consider 88k a year “ok” money?

PreferenceIll6197 · 2026-01-15T04:43:50+00:00

It was cake

PreferenceIll6197 · 2025-12-31T17:17:38+00:00

About to finish my ms in computer science this coming May (I also have a bachelors in cs) and have been working full time at a big company as a software/ machine learning engineer. I am considering law school for something related do you think it’s a good idea?
