I can relate to this, I did a MS in Hardware and I was good in design ( I developed couple of algorithms that didn't exist and it has application in FIFO for example) but all the jobs for the new grad is in verification! I switched to Software and I am happier with my choices. although I really miss the Hardware where an additional line of code can mean screw your performance !
