WGU CS Grad to OMSCS: Where are you now?
Interview Experience
I'm making this post specifically for WGU CS grads that decided to enroll into OMSCS. What was your experience like getting internships and job offers? Did you still need to apply to hundreds of places even with OMSCS on your resume? I graduated from WGU back in 2024 and I also got my AA in CS. I was accepted into OMSCS last year but I withdrew because I thought if I just applied like crazy I'd be able to get a job. Well here I am with no CS job still after a year. The main thing that bothers me about OMSCS is the time commitment with how bad the job market is. I've seen several people who still can't get a job even after doing OMSCS which really makes me question if it's worth it. I recently made another post where I said I was considering going back to university to try and get a bachelors from a more respected university. I've heard several people say they completely blacklist WGU grads so that's why I'm concerned with just having it on my resume. Idk what I'm going to do honestly, I'm an older adult and it feels like I've done a lot of work for nothing but at the same time I don't want to go into another field. I went on a tangent there but If you've done the above I'd appreciate you sharing your experience.
