We cold hitting up alumni on LinkedIn for connections?

Yeah. Create a template for mentorship requests. You wouldn't believe the amount of people that are open to queries and tutelage.

I go to companies that are hiring and look at their staff and get replies back all of the time.

Even on here if you find someone that is in the same field Dm them.

People I don't know have been adding me but not messaging me to try and take advantage of it. Doesn't hurt to, might work out in your favor.

Just started today and got a lot of that little bubble showing they read my message, just thought I was breaching LinkedIn protocol

I'm almost done with my accounting degree but now I'm unsure if I want to do it or want to try my hand at IT

I just want a good work/life balance

I got a year and a half left for mine and thinking the same thing.

Has anyone transferred from one community college to another to start with a fresh gpa? I’ve heard of it being done and I have an average gpa since I decided to stay in school while being activated for the guard for the past year. I just wanna get into USC/UCB to hustle into IB/PE

I'm 32 and since arriving from Afrika, I need to finish my Mech Eng. My current issue is all my classes that don't req. calc 1 have been completed. That said, I'm not going to waste time money and credit working my way up to calc 1. I need to test into it. I bought an Accuplacer book and shyt load of math videos from torrents I need to start watching. That's my biggest hurdle right now. Not an excuse, just a reason.

No bc you'll have to transfer from one to the other with you transcript. Maybe if you start a different program?

Y’all pray for a breh

I’m THIS close to getting back in school . Last time I was in school was Spring 14 . I was 19 and got kicked out for sellin weed . Right after school police gave me a ticket, I jetted to TX . So I had a warrant since 2014 that just now got dismissed cuz New Mexico legalized weed.

Now I’m 27, and I feel like I’m goin on vacay from the real world. Can’t believe I might be going back to New Mexico

Idk whether to continue my Chemistry degree or to switch to IT cuz I can prolly breeze through

I might do the Chemistry and try to enroll in WGU for IT at the same time ..

chemistry is so I can hopefully get into a Pharmacy program somewhere else
