Should I Pursue a Masters in Computer Science?

I'm not sure if, I should pursue a Masters in Computer Science. I applied to several developer jobs that are entry level, but I have been told that I don't meet the educational requirements. I graduated with a BS in Math and I know how to code in C++/Python

Did you try sending your resume/CV to those companies anyway? It is possible that those are not hard requirements, especially with you having a BS in maths. If you can land yourself an interview, you would most likely be given a chance to prove your skills. Of course, not discouraging you against going for your masters. Just making sure you've exhausted your options.

Interesting... I have a B.A. in Economics and it's never been an issue with being competitively employed as a professional software developer. That said, this isn't really a question and would be better in your personal feed. I'll be marking this for deletion for automatic removal in 24 hours. Best of luck in your studies. 😉👌
