>I don't know shit about fishing. I wonder if I can get a job in fishing. Can you catch fish by fishing?

How about trying something you like doing and already know a bit about?

>>8288223
ok can i major in quantum physics

>>8288225
No and this board shouldn't be visited by under18s.

So its a meme degree then

Depends on what you do at college.

If you're interested in math you're gonna learn math - if you want to apply it in a specific way you have projects at school, or firms will show up to fish good students for what they need.

if you're IMO-level/attend top 5-10 math school, you can get any job on wall street if you're above average in your math program..otherwise, good luck in software dev or lecturer positions

Don't even bother. /sci/ never gives a concrete answer to anything.

I graduated with a math degree in May. Still looking for a job here. Be warned OP.

>what if I want to suck 20 cocks a day?
Fine for you, but don't complain.

My friend works a job as an administrator. I'm kinda thinking I chose the wrong major

>>8288215
Math major -> jobs LOL

>>8288215
>What kind of jobs can I land

Coding jobs and finance jobs are the most popular

okokok

>>8288215
Do some stats and you'll be fine for work.

If you bother more about job than science, its wrong... There are different things than money to get money.

Make projects on your own that are impressive; making a shitty board game isnt impressive, even if its on mobile/other..a good project for your resume can be something like placing highly in a kaggle competition or winning a hackathon or an academic project (i.e. writing your own toy compiler, or interpreter if freshman/sophomore)..with 0 software experience you want a few decent projects to show you're not a dummy

have a >3.0 gpa and then try to get an internship if you're still in undergrad by applying to everything you can find or hope that your school has a good reputation then go from there

this is all assuming you have the algorithmic fundamentals of your average 2nd-3rd year CS student (i.e. MIT ocw 6.006 as a start) since your interviews wont be complete bs unless its a shit company

CONGRATS YOU WILL NOW HAVE AN INTERNSHIP AT A NON-SHIT COMPANY AND THEN AT LEAST INTERVIEWS AT BIG COMPANIES AFTER YOU GRADUATE!!

I study Psy ad Math.
Jobs lined up? nope
internships or experience? nope
just going to go to graduate school? yep

I practice programming in my free time incase I drop out or dont make it. I'll probably start in marketing or community shit, and work my way up some software company

dont care really, in the end I want to be a professor anyway
