getting-a-gig VS CSrankings

Guide to your first job in tech - a great read from @cassidoo. Check out Cassidy's newsletter and other resources like Getting a Gig too.

Lo que yo suelo hacer es tener un template a mano donde voy cambiando el nombre de la empresa, a menos que esté aplicando a mi ✨dream job✨, en ese caso me puedo esmerar un poco más. El motivo por el cual hago esto es porque cuando estoy en búsqueda activa, mando unos 10 CVs por día (no lo recomiendo, es agotador) y no tengo el tiempo ni las ganas para dedicarme a hace eso

If you look at csrankings.org, another site used to rank computer science programs, Virginia Tech is actually 51st and George Mason is 32st. While their methodology is also questionable if trying to determine the quality of an undergraduate program, it still demonstrates that ranking lists are not always fantastic at capturing how good an program is. Now, onto my own experiences.

Here is the website im talking about: https://csrankings.org

https://csrankings.org/ is a great resource, but i am wondering if there are any other.

What would be the ideal order for the narrative? I have a couple of professional experiences and a good research project that was accepted at a conference during my senior year. I'm looking for a Master's in CS in the top 15 schools according to csrankings.org.

I think you have a good shot at top 50 schools. Take a look at csrankings.org and see how your profile stacks up against PhD students from other labs. Pay special attention to their records prior to starting their PhD.

I studied CS undergraduate in NTU. At the start of a lecture in Uni, the professor told us QS ranking is bs and the true ranking website is https://csrankings.org

you shouldve mentioned about the scholarship. If money is not an issue, in terms of quality of study you can roughly refer to this: https://csrankings.org

Students find professors from csrankings.org but instead you can just go the the university portal and search the professors there.

The Technical University of Darmstadt, Germany, offers a machine learning master (Info). The program has 4 semesters/2 years, per semester there is a fee of ~260 USD, overall cost of living is dependent on lifestyle and rent, but can be ~800-1000 USD/month. On this ranking (parameter tuning:P) it achieved a world rank of 88, when the masters content is selected.. But of course, this would mean that you will be abroad for 2 years. Also, student workers in CS often get paid 12-16€/h as a salary, with 10-20h/week (which is feasible), you can get roughly 800€/month as income. If you have any questions I am open for it, I have studied Computer Science, Autonomous Systems and Visual Computing at TUDa.
