If I hadn’t dropped out for a few years, I would’ve been on track to graduate in fall of 2020. This year has made me glad I waited. Even ignoring the employment aspect, the idea of taking senior level classes online or in some sort of hybrid setup sounds fucking awful.

US unemployment was already back down to 8% or something in the most recent numbers. The job market is pretty shit compared to the past 4 years, but it could be a lot worse.

I made it my personal mission in life to create herculean businesses that, ideally, will only hire autodidacts with no degrees in anything, if they arent available as people that smart are rare, this would be the order of preference or priority:
> perfect autodidact, no degrees at all > homeschooled > private degrees (not gov authenticated) and certifications > reached middle school degree only > reached highschool degree only > reached some semester of STEM undergrad degree only (the earlier the semester he dropped out, if he did drop out, the better, if he did the first semester only its better than until the second semester)
Thats about it, not hiring anything from humanities of course
I would also consider more politically incorrect attributes such as IQ

Well I'm about to graduate my MSc of research and normally companies take some students and finance their PhD and the offers start about this time of the year.
This year literally NO campany is publishing any offer, even if they did the competition would be so hard compared to before.

>MSc of research
PhD scholarships have always been harder to get than jobs anon. Plus if you put in the extra work to use your connections like its done absolutely everywhere there's no doubt you'll find at least something.

>> No.12218571

>>12218536
I also wouldnt hire people with masters or doctorates or phds, as their intelligence has been destroyed already (you could argue even an undergrad had his intelligence corrupted), they should stay in academia in hopes of making anything usefull to advance the industry instead of trying to get into the free market, where competent people only should reside

>>12218570
The only connection I have is one professor who I meet from time to time, and even he is recently not sure of finding some really good offers, the main goal is not just about a Thesis but rather it's about finding who will finance it, it's either :
-scholarship from the ministry of education (almost impossible to get and they pay you 18k€/year)
-scholarship from the region, it's basically a various research labs around the country (the easiest to get and also 18k€)
-scholarship from an R&D company (This one 100% needs connections not just applying, but you get payed more 24k€/year + you get a job as an R&D engineer once you finish PhD)

But Chinese virus really mixed up everything

Hire a designer, make a t-shirt merchandise, fund a youtube channel that is educating and own paid portal about education on subjects you just learned, they should be in fresh memory so it should be easy.

Then be concurency for university, because as it seems they also lack jobs. Then make a hobby lab somewhere and became vlogger.

Have you guys considered some more anarchistic way of obtaining money, like drug manufacture, there are still legal designer drugs or nootropics, you can find how to make even on sci-hub, and if you can deliver quality synthesis or grow, you've got the money and fill the void on the market, it's hell of a easy.

Learn how to code, algorythms and datastrucures can take you mostly 3 moths after some basic education, then you can code for your field and also work as code monkey, I know you probably asking about jobs in the field, but only choosen ones get that, because goverment is ruining lives of 50 people to hire 1.
