Questions to Electrical/Computer Engineers

Hi everyone.
I plan on either going into computer engineering or electrical engineering, and I wanted to know some information.
How did you guys absolutely know that you wanted to go into this field? What's your favorite part of your field? On the other hand, what do you dislike about your field? Did you have any trouble finding a job after college? Are you happy with your job?
Honestly, I don't know which major between the two that I'm going to choose. They both seem interesting, and I could see myself doing either.

Electrical engineer here!

I was into this field because i like technology. The things I like about the major is that it gives me alot of hands on labs and has both hardware/software classes that includes power/communication/electronics/control system etc. What I dislike is that there are too many homework/labs to do while studying for 6 exams per semester.

Job prospects are great and I love my job now. I got a lot of paid vacation time with bonuses and diverse responsibilities.

I hope that answers your question
