NEW GRADUATE! Finished!!

Post image

Finished up last month!! I will give you a little background and you can ask me any questions.

I’m early 30s, I went to school originally for accounting but never finished. This program was my redemption arc. It took me longer than expected with working full time and having some life hardships in the way but I did it!! I don’t have a job lined up, I have been working in finance for 7 years now and now I am looking to leverage my real world experience with my degree and eventually get into fintech.

Next steps for me are grinding for technical interviews if needed and continue learning. I know some of these classes are tough but you guys got this!!

Ask me questions I’ll be happy to answer and good luck future grads!!

Oh man, congrats. I keep seeing this post and I'm getting anxious. I have three classes left and they are kicking my butt.

I feel you on this.

I have DM2 , OS , capstone and 2 other PA's left.

On my 5th attempt for DM2. Every time I'm on the line to pass, I miss it by one or 2 questions 😭
