M26 iş piyasasında kaybetti, hırs yok, hayal yok

Farklı dereceler arasında geçiş yaptıktan sonra nihayet geçen yıl bilgisayar bilimi bölümünden mezun oldum.

Sonunda hoşuma giden bir şey bulduğumu düşündüm. Hiç de tutkulu olmadığım ortaya çıktı, sadece "en az kötü" bulabildiğim iş. İyi maaş, 1 veya 2 gün evden çalışma, şirkete bağlı olarak rahat olabilir.

Ama ilk işimi alamıyorum. İşe alım cehennemindeyim, her hafta boşuna röportaj yapıyorum. Piyasanın berbat olduğunu biliyorum ve AI yanıltıcılığının da bir faydası yok ve belki de ben dünyada bilinen en kötü geliştiriciyim, kim bilir, bu yüzden şimdi hayatımla ne yapacağımı bilmiyorum.

İlk işimi almayı, sonunda kendi dairemi almayı ve hayatıma başlamayı umuyordum ama artık kaybediyorum.

Eylül 2026’da yeniden başlamayı planlıyorum. Diploma mı yoksa eğitim programı mı olacağını bilmiyorum, ne yapacağımı bile bilmiyorum. Bir iş için tutkularımın hiçbir değeri yok, hiçbir zaman kariyer konusunda hırslı olmadım, hayalimde bir iş yok.

Yine kötü bir seçim yapmaktan korkuyorum. Belki de işe alımların iyi olduğunu gördüğüm için HVAC teknisyeni olmak için bir eğitim programı başlatmayı düşünüyordum, ancak bir yıl içinde bitirdiğimde bunun hala doğru olup olmayacağını kim bilebilir.

Kelimenin tam anlamıyla şimdi ne yapacağım?

    CS grad here, around your age too

    I graduated mid-2024 and couldn’t find fuckall, over a year passed and it was miserable. Bonus points for being gaslit by the older generation being called lazy n shit.

    Eventually I got tired of my family yelling at me and decided to work out of the tech field entirely as an Amazon DSP driver while applying to be a mailman for the Post Office. Fast-forward to now I passed probation and I’m currently obsessed with the F.I.R.E. movement. I regret wasting 5 years for an oversaturated field that doesn’t want me, but at least now I’m doing something.

    Not necessarily advising you to work for the PO (and especially not something like the military right now), but hell man, consider cutting your losses and biting the bullet for now.

    Helluva time to be a CS grad, I feel you the market is buns (okay more like insufferably over saturated) It’s always been hyper competitive to begin with but between lay-offs, AI, jobs going to India and the number of CS grads doubling from 50k to 100k annually since like 5 or more years ago it can feel brutal.

    If you want advice on staying the course with your degree; gotta make sure you have a strong portfolio, never stop learning so master whatever language you know then move on to the next. Average dev should know about 3 maybe 4 languages (2-3 for jr I suppose) it’s best to fully master the languages you know, but because of the AI bullshit and outsourcing you’re given the unreal expectation of having technical depth and breadth to fix the slop. And while it’s disgusting learning to implement AI functionality is huge for the market right now. Even so the market is hyper saturated so it’ll still take some time before you land a job, just takes time is all.

    As for moving on? HVAC and trades make pretty damn good money from what I hear and there never seems to be enough people. Especially if you move up in experience because companies need air cooling for the data center and with the new hardware coming out they need electricians and plumbers for the monster chips that need CDU’s. Can’t know what the future holds but I doubt Musk will be rolling out robots who can install pipes/vents or lay wires any time soon.

    Interviews are a positive sign. Do you know why the interviews are falling short of an offer?

    Are you getting any feedback from these interviews? Also with your skill, you could just build out some side projects while intervieweing. With AI coding tool now, companies not only look for devs but they want devs that are good with ai coding agents and can work 10x faster. If you can build some side projects and get users ore ven better revenue, you’re showing you have the skill they want.

    honestly HVAC takes 1-2 years training and is physical labor daily, I wouldn’t recommend switching because interviews are hard. You have so many options (product manager, solution engineer etc.). I’d recommend checking out all your options first with path ai on app store or google career dreamer and then deciding what to pivot into. I recommend staying in tech
