Will CS job growth change in the next 10-20 years?
Do you think the CS job growth outlook will increase or decrease in the next decade or two?
SWE programming interviews?
What are programming interviews like for software engineering positions?
What are some ways I can seek experience in CS in college? I know a lot of companies highly recommend prior CS experience even for internships, so how should I build my portfolio?
I'm currently a high school senior, looking to pursue CS.
Courses in high school
A lot of colleges recommend that students take all three fundamentals of science (biology, chemistry, physics), however I'm looking into doing AP Biology instead of doing physics since biology is more related to my field of interest. Will that affect anything when I'm applying to college?
Internships/Research in College
I'm planning to take on some internships related to biomedical engineering when I am in college. What are some ways I can seek entry-level internships/research positions for the first time?
Biomedical engineering is a recent interest of mine, so I don't know much about how I can take the steps needed to pursue that career. Should I be focusing on finding opportunities to get a taste of the biomedical engineering field, or just focus on my current activities for the last two years of high school?
