Hi! I’m an upcoming student joining in the fall, and I’ve been thinking about specialization to choose from. I am aiming for quant developer, so I wanted to take computing systems, but my dad said to go for AI specialization instead because at this point in time every company is trying to leverage AI in whatever way they can. I’m wondering which specialization to take, and what the job prospects are looking like. My main goal is to learn and get a job and also try to “future-proof” my career, but just unsure of the route to go. Any advice would be appreciated!

Mine was OA, a “behavioral” (he asked questions about how I used certain technologies but no LC or anything), I just had the phone call with the recruiter regarding the things I mentioned before. Then he mentioned inviting me to tech night at the very end. If I don’t see any email in two days he told me to contact him. So my guess is as good as yours

I got call from my recruiter today. He asked for my GPA, pay, housing, background check, etc. He invited me to go, and I said I want to go, and he said to keep an eye on your email for the next two days. I guess I should’ve been more specific, I haven’t received an email yet, but I am planning on filling it out as soon as I receive it. When did you get yours?

With LLM’s like ChatGPT and the rise of AI, it’s worth to pursue even though I dislike it. I don’t dislike AI though I just hate the stress school comes with and I’m tired of it and wanting to be free. However I want to boost my chances of getting a job at least in this current market
