There are plenty of opportunities outside of coding. Consider technical sales, consulting, software support, technical writing, UX/design, project management, just to name a few. A CS degree is now a foundational degree that can serve as the starting point for many career paths. Don't stress.
- xexers 8y agoI agree. There are lots of tangent careers you can do with a CS degree. Also consider: IT operations, Quality Assurance, technical PM, network infrastructure. Some of these might require a bit more training, but your CS degree is a solid foundation to build from.
- rmoxley 8y agoI'll second this suggestion. It's exactly what came to mind when I read OP's post. I would also add to this list: testing/quality assurance, and information technology. Since you successfully completed a CS degree, you obviously have the capacity to exercise skills in this field. Ask yourself if there are parts of CS (or a related field) that you enjoy more than software development -- and pursue those interests.
