What jobs do I qualify for with a Bachelors of Science in Computational Mathematics and a general understanding of programming?
I graduated college 6 months ago with a 2.99 GPA and a degree in Computational Mathematics. My problem is, I have 5 years of experience as a non-clinical medical clerk , no internships for tech, but my degree is literally in tech and mathematics. I studied Algorithms, Optimization, Software Construction, Introduction to AI , and of course other courses but I 1. cannot find a job in the field 2. I am not even sure anymore what I would be interested in doing. I'm curious on what others may have chosen to do in my position and what I may be missing in all of this?
