Is it worth going back for a Master’s Degree despite the terrible Job Market? /u/L_im_it CSCQ protests reddit

Hey everyone,

To keep my post short and sweet and to the point, I wanted to know if it was worth pursuing a Master’s Degree in CS despite already having done my Bachelor’s. The reason I ask is because I haven’t been able to find a job since I graduated in 2021, and while some of that is indeed my fault due to a lack of networking and getting an internship, a portion of it can also be attributed to life circumstances and being in a post pandemic world where certain things are outside of my control. I’ve been thinking about going back to school lately, but am unsure if this is the right approach given that I don’t want to spend time pursuing something that’s just going to lead me back to square one where I am now and put me into more unnecessary debt. Quite frankly I feel depressed and defeated already having spent 7 years of my life on something that I thought would be a worthwhile endeavor, whereas I see some of my other friends already kickstarting their life with families, houses, etc. meanwhile I haven’t even stepped foot a day into my career. Any thoughts on this?
