Caleb’s majors were Computer Science and Digital Media Design
What was your first professional job after you graduated? Was it related to your major? If not, how did you discover this job?
I was interning at Yodel for 3 years in college as a developer, to which they offered me a Software Developer role right outside of college.
What do you do in your current job?
I currently word mainly on website development, working on new projects and fixing bugs and other issues that get reported in our system from users and other Yodel employees.
What advice about working in your career field do you have for students?
In computer science, AI is becoming very popular. You should use it as a tool, and not a crutch! If you use it, and don’t understand what is happening, have it explain it to you its thoughts and why it works! If you have it just do your homework for you without understanding the process, it will be very difficult to understand your code and develop those essential thought processing skills.
