Title: I&#x27;m a fairly &quot;fresh&quot; developer (less than a year out of college) who will be moving to the Chicago area in May. Since graduation I&#x27;ve been working at the company I interned at and was able to secure that position through the internship program at my university, so hunting for a tech job is totally new to me.<p>Using some of the more standard online outlets for job searching (Dice, Stack Overflow, Indeed, Glassdoor, etc.), I&#x27;ve found very few jobs that aren&#x27;t web-related. I have seen a handful of embedded programming jobs, but those tend to require a background that I lack (EE or CE, whereas I have a Comp. Sci. degree). My only other prospects seem to be in the financial and gaming industries, but those positions are few and far between and tend to require previous professional experience that I lack.<p>I&#x27;m afraid I&#x27;ll have to pursue a masters or doctoral degree in order to pursue jobs in any area outside of the web. Is this accurate, or am I simply looking for employment in the wrong places?
