I’m graduating soon with a Computer Science degree, but I don’t want a job that is fully focused on coding or leetcode-style software engineering especially during their interviews.

I’ve applied to a lot of jobs, but I’m not sure if I’m applying to the right roles. A lot of entry-level jobs either reject me, never respond, or expect way more experience than an entry-level person should have. At this point, I’m trying to be more realistic and look into tech-adjacent roles where my CS degree is still useful, but coding is not the main part of the job. Ive already had 2 internships and none of them required a coding interview and one is them is about to end this month.

What entry-level roles should I search for if I have a CS background but want little to no coding?

For people who graduated with a CS degree but didn’t go into traditional software engineering, what was your first job? What job titles should I search for? Also, how should I adjust my resume so I don’t look like I’m only applying for software developer roles?

Any advice would be appreciated!

Hi everyone, I am graduating next week with a Computer Science degree and I still don’t have a job lined up. I’ve applied to like thousands of places, but I honestly don’t even know if I’m applying to the right jobs anymore.

Most of the time I either get rejected, never hear back, or the role wants way more experience than an entry-level person would realistically have. I’ve applied to software roles, analyst roles, IT roles, internships, new grad roles, and tech-adjacent roles, but nothing has worked out yet. Im applying to stuff that’s not even my major related just so I don’t feel like an unemployed bum.

At this point I’m starting to feel like I chose the worst major possible. I know Computer Science used to be seen as a good major, but now it feels like everyone is competing for the same few entry-level jobs. It’s making me feel so useless even though I did go to school, worked on projects, and tried to build experience. I have done 2 internships already and non of them hired full time and my current internship is about to end this month.

I’m not trying to complain just to complain. I genuinely don’t know what I should be doing differently.

For anyone who graduated without a job lined up, especially CS grads, what did you do next? What kinds of jobs did you apply to, and how did you eventually get your first full-time role?

Any advice would be appreciated because I feel really lost right now.

I was a passenger in a car accident in Los Angeles, CA and I’m trying to understand how liability will likely be determined.

We were driving straight on a main road with the right of way. The other driver was coming from a neighborhood street with a stop sign and pulled out into our lane, and we collided. Our driver braked but didn’t have enough time to avoid the crash.

Our car has severe front-end damage (likely totaled), and the other car has damage to the driver-side/front corner. There was debris from our car in the main roadway where the impact happened. Police came and told us to file a report online which we did after.

The other driver is now claiming they were fully stopped and that we lost control swerved and ran into them. We have an attorney but they dont. There’s no video footage.

As a passenger, I had a nosebleed at the scene and now have soreness, and the driver has a hand injury.

Given this situation (stop sign vs main road + damage patterns + conflicting stories), how do insurance companies typically determine fault in California? Is it likely to be clear fault or shared fault? I have photos of the debris on the main street from our car and photos right after the impact where their car was right infront of ours from the passenger window.
