you may not be accurately apprised of the current state of the hiring market for engineers as a college student.
When you're in a computer degree, you're surrounded by people who know computers, they're comfortable with them, and know the basics. You may joke about your granny not knowing how to hook up her printer and all that.
When you get into business world, you'll come across people with Serious Responsbilities™ and Real Jobs™ in Positions of Authority™ who won't know what a zip file is. Or will ask you how long it'll take to sort that large list of numbers ("ummm.... command line?").
Once you get out of the geek bubble, you'll realise you have a magic superpower to make the magic computer boxes do magic.
