Should I keep working and try to make my way up or should I go for masters at Stanford? With masters from big school, I can try to get into Hedge funds and all. Which one would maximize my tc? Currently working at a startup in bay area after graduating in December. Have interviews with Dropbox and Bloberg soon.

Get masters
Just job and leetcode. Online courses if interested in certain area
I have done 550 LC
You're on right track then. Good luck!
When would you start the masters?
Plan is next january
Do you currently attend Stanford undergrad? AFAIK the masters program only allows Aug starts (unless you’re doing BS/MS program)
I think being a grad student, even with funding, would be tough in the bay area due to high cost of living. You would want to go into it with lots of savings. I chose to go to grad school in Austin partly because it's easier to get by on a graduate student stipend.
How many YOE? You have a good strategy tbh, but YOE is important to the schools

Should I go for masters then in next december?
