Tata Consultancy Services Career Development Videos, Forum, and Q&A

Hello Taro Community,

I hope everyone is well. I am a 2020 graduate of a Bachelor of Technology in Electronics and Communication, and I have been working in the IT industry for two years now.

As I consider furthering my education, I would like to ask for your collective insights on the value of an online Master's Degree in Computer Science for someone like myself, who holds a non-CS Bachelor's degree. I would greatly appreciate any experiences, advice, or recommendations. Thank you for your time and support.

• I aim to join a big tech preferably as a Software Engineer(Entry Level). I am currently working in Data Science and it has been hard juggling between data science at work and preparing for big techs.
• I prefer a Software Engineering role as I do not think that big techs prefer Entry Level Engineers with Bachelor's degrees for Data Science and ML roles.
• So how I should balance the work (Data Science) and preparation for the Job Switch to a big tech alongside DSA?

• I am looking for a Software Engineer role in big techs.
• They varied my experience in my previous company, i.e. I was part of three different projects, all of which used different tech stacks, and none of them was a development project.
• Now I am confused about adding projects to my profile because I do not have any projects related to development.
• I have experience in python that is related to Data Science.
• I would love some guidance on deciding on what to build and how to choose between web, front/back end, full stack, android, etc.
