Which roles are less impacted by this? I’m looking into Masters programs, what should we know?

It depends on the type of role. Some roles are still in high demand but I see more and more positions being allocated to lower cost centers

Which roles are still in high demand? If I’m a Nurse interested in biotech, what should I be looking at? I was interested in sales but if that is less in demand I also thought about other roles that involve regulatory.

I’ve seen so many folks recently on LinkedIn taking on new roles so things are turning. At least for marketing type folks.

Got offered 68k after 2 years as a contractor (62.5k) doing project management/business admin in a tech department at a Fortune 500 bank. I have an A.S degree and working on my bachelor’s/masters may 2024. I negotiated to 84k NYC. I have seen interns get offered 38 per hour (79k) for internship positions with a similar role.

Thoughts? Should I go higher? I do my job well that’s why they decided to keep me as a contractor after my internship.
