Life science consulting is the best way to 70k+ as a new hire. Get the data analytics skills and you’ll be set

Consulting is definitely the way you should head if you want that salary soon after graduation. You should have time to get the skills necessary by the time you're done if you have a bit of time.

What is important to you besides pay? Consulting is great pay, but is it a good role for you? What are your skills? What do you enjoy doing in a job? What makes you anxious/what would you prefer NOT to be doing?

I don’t prefer being by myself and doing solo work all the time. It’s okay from time to time but i enjoy team work

I have a friend who graduated with a CS degree in '17. Since then he's sporadically looked for work in the field but not found any, and has worked as a supervisor. His coding skills have atrophied substantially.

I've been encouraging him to grind leetcode and apply for at least 10 jobs a day, I'm not sure how much hes really doing.

Is there any chance of him finding work? Would taking a bootcamp help him? At this point I'm considering advising him to move on.
