Hello all, I’m planning to get a masters degree, but I’m not sure what should I get. I need something that’s going to get me to 150-200K/Yr range. Please tell me about your thoughts and experiences. If anyone is making more than 140K/yr let me know how do you do that? 😂

Did you want to be starting out at $150k or are you OK with earning 150k after working for a few years?

Computer Science. East to get to 150k and up with a masters in that. Good luck!

Will look into it. Thanks!

Good luck..!! I wish I had that kind of money to invest and get that much return

You don’t need a masters degree to earn this money. All you’re doing is getting a fat loan to pay off and more classes that go into 13th century European basket weaving.

Above that range with 4 years of experience and a bachelor … I think industry experience >>>> masters

Just work hard I make over $150 with no college education

Hello!

I finished my final round(s) for a TAM position at 
Google (GCP) last week and was told by my recruiter that my feedback was great and that I made a solid impression on the team and am "firmly in the running". I was supposed to hear back this week (according to the recruiter) but he just told me that it's still in the process and that I'll have to wait for another week or so.

Is this common at Google ? I have heard they are notorious for being really slow with their hiring process.
