Alternate Career Paths for Computer Science Graduates

So maybe you studied computer science at college but are not able to secure a job as a developer. Or maybe you are a developer but don't like your job. What could you do now? Do not worry. There are still so many career paths within tech itself which you can explore. Of course you can explore careers outside of tech too but in this post I will list some career options which are available within the tech space. They are:

  • Product manager
  • UI/UX Designer
  • Tester
  • Data Analyst
  • Data Scientist
  • Computer Science Teacher
  • Computer Science Professor
  • Game Designer

What are the other careers which are in the tech space but which are not "software developer" roles? Do let us know in the comments!
