Starting an agency where we pay everyone in CBD oil.
I am a graduating student who just got offered 65k for a solution analyst role at Deloitte USDC (Data Engineering Focus). From reading previous posts it seems to be a lot of negative thoughts surrounding the USDC, but straight out of college is this a good opportunity?
I'm looking to gain as much experience as possible out of college in an IT role and wondering what exit opportunities may be in place a year or two down the road if there is little/slow progression.
Any Advice?
Can you please help me with the in hand salary

To make a long story short, I have a lucrative side gig that I started with my wife that completely supports our livelihood. It’s actually her company but I just helped out with the tech development of the service. In short, I don’t really “need” to work in order to live, but I am very passionate about AI design and agentic applications after having built out a native app in my own after having completed some online training and projects.
So I had one interview with a company for a tech owner positing revolving around agentic AI and development and after seeing my resume, all 4 of my interviewers wanted to talk ONLY about my wife’s company and how it is generating revenue. I kept telling them that it’s her business and that I just founded it but now I’m ready to go back to work. Despite all of this, they just weren’t having it.
What this experience revealed to me is that genuinely wanting to go back to work out of passion and having a proven track record is not as attractive as someone who is sick of his/her current job but pretending to have all this success at their current employment, lying through their teeth just to fake a promotion at the next place.
It’s like the power that the company (employer) has over its slaves…er uh, I mean “employees” can exist ONLY if the said employee is completely dependent upon the job as a means to live and constantly live in fear of being ousted from work and having to become homeless on the street. If the job applicant does not have this fear because he/she doesn’t have to depend on receiving a paycheck and has other means to survive and live comfortably even if the master (employer) shitcans them, this completely shifts the power dynamics of the employer/employee relationship and makes them almost fearful and uncomfortable.
Seriously, if this doesn’t reveal how completely fucked up and odious the entire premise of capitalistic relationships is, i don’t know what else does. Peeling away the layers of this employer/employee relationship dynamics just proves that nothing other than transactional gain motivates anything in the system of capitalism. No one gives a flying shit whether or not you “enjoy” your work which always makes me laugh whenever I hear these simps talking about how contributing to the company mission is what motivates them to work harder or companies saying that they love seeing motivated employees who care about what they do and are willing to go outside their swim lane to pay it forward. Such outdated boomer-esque bullshit malarky that has no context in the 21st century.

Even if he did, the lie would be entirely unrelated to his qualifications. His issue is with the employers who understand that needs are easier to predict that wants. The OP holds this notion in contempt, as according to his point employers should take the high road and not abuse needs and (what I can infer) hire based on sheer enthusiasm. This is possible in certain, very limited and typically well-paid, fields. But in 98% of all other cases, those who claim to work for anything besides need are either disingenuous or will show entitlement.
They don’t want a peer, they wan’t a subordinate.
Once you have the swagger to cross over into business ownership, any owner knows you are too risky. You might not be obedient. You might become a competitor.
It’s clear that the tech job market can be frustrating. For technical rounds, I found useful interview questions on prachub.com that helped me navigate the process.
