Ask Slashdot: What's The Best Job For This Recent CS Grad?

One year away from graduating with a CS degree, an anonymous reader wants some insights from the Slashdot community: [My] curriculum is rather broad, ranging from systems programming on a Raspberry Pi to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, C, Java, JPA, Python, Go, Node.js, software design patterns, basic network stuff (mostly Cisco) and various database technologies... I'm working already part-time as a system administrator for two small companies, but don't want to stay there forever because it's basically a dead-end position. Enjoying the job, though... With these skills under my belt, what career path should I pursue?
There's different positions as well as different fields, and the submission explains simply that "I'm looking for satisfying and rewarding work," adding that "pay is not that important." So leave your suggestions in the comments. What's the best job for this recent CS grad?

Figure out what you want to do

[BitZtream]

You can't come to slashdot and ask them what you want to be when you grow up.

Why did you take CS? Because you liked something in it, or because someone told you to? If you liked something related to CS than you need to focus on it and figure out how to turn it into a career, or get yourself focused on moving in the direction that would allow it to be a career.

If you got into CS because someone told you that you should major in CS, than you need to stop now. Figure out WTF you think you might want to do with your life, and then figure out how to go in that direction. Is that even in CS or is it in some other field entirely.

Slashdot can't figure out what you want to be when you grow up, only you can. If you don't know what you want to do with your CS degree after you get out than you have to start by asking yourself why you're getting a CS degree, or even getting a degree at all.

Practice...
