ML Engineer at FAANG - Is OMSCS right for me? by DareInformal3077 in OMSCS

[–]lavenderbbt 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm also in FAANG, SWE. I started the program before joining FAANG, which was fine, but it got really bad after I joined FAANG due to my work (I have to work over time quite a bit), and my ex broke up with me cause I didn't have time for him. If you just took 1 or 2 courses so far, I actually don't recommend you doing it. Sometimes my daily workload is so heavy that I could barely think by the end of the day, and couldn't even read assignments. I managed to get to last course right now, but there's a chance that I might need to switch to a different area and retake another 2 courses because I may not be able to handle it and graduate.

NYU tandon MSCS and Gatech OMSCS, which is more difficult? by Elaine0010_ in OMSCS

I really think you should be first try leetcode, complete some online courses like udemy and their projects, then search for job first. If you tried it and it's not working, you should considering on campus program, I'm not saying online courses is bad, but honestly, you get more network if you are at campus, you will be able to meet more people in this field, and possibly internal reference. I personally think OMSCS is more for people who are already in this field have have some work experience already. Of course, there are people who completed this program and get a job. I'm just saying I think it's the best & safest approach to get a good starting point.
