Subject: [cs-ugrads] A job offer question
To: Cs-Ugrads <cs-ugrads@cs.washington.edu>
I’ve been asked to write a short article on the current job market for computer science and computer engineering graduates.
If you have any data that would help me make the point that things are hot, would you please send it to me? I will not use your name, and you do not need to identify specific companies – I’m *not* asking you to violate any confidentiality that an employer may have requested. (Although it would be very helpful to know if the company was from this region or from another part of the country.)
“Stories” that would be helpful might include:
– An extraordinarily high salary
– An extraordinarily high signing bonus
– Multiple companies fawning over you
Please let me hear from you ASAP. Again, I will *not* violate your privacy/confidentiality. I would just like to take the opportunity to make the point that things are hot.
