DSA OR FULL STACK DEVELOPMENT ???

I am currently pursuing my Master's in Computer Applications from GGSIPU, Delhi. Our placement session is about to start in a month. The average placement in our college is 4-5 Lakhs. I love web development and have built a few full-stack projects too. Now I am confused about what I should do. Should I improve my web development skills and apply for development roles off-campus, or should I work on DSA and focus on the campus placement? I am confused because currently.

Accolite

Biggest Ref flag Accolite Digital

So I have been interning at Accolite Digital as an Swe. I got the opportunity via oncampus drive. They offered a 6 month internship+ FTE(8 lpa CTC and 3 lpa as retention bonus). After 4 months of internship they randomly terminated internships of 10 interns stating their performance was inadequate which was complete bullshit as I knew those interns worked really hard. Later the HR told us that they have reduced the retention bonus from 3 lpa to 2 lpa without having any discussion with us. After 6 months of internship they again forced around 20-30 interns to hand over their resignation as they have found better opportunity but the reality was that they didn't have projects to allot to them and didn't want to display it as layoffs. After all this shitholery they gave the rest of us an extension of 2 months till 15th of October and today they told us that they have further extended our internship till December. During this period of time I worked my ass off for this shit organisation and worked late at night to connect with the client. They only paid us 20k as an internship stipend and expected us to be present at the office all 5 days a week. The worst thing is that I initially had 5 job offers in hand and I had to reject them all to accept this one. They also have 1 year of bond which they won't wave off. I am literally shattered and actively looking for better job opportunities as a SWE fresher with 8 months of internship experience. I would beg the community to please like this post as much as they can so that someone who is actively hiring who could see this. Also if any of u guys have any openings at ur firm please do consider me!!

Google

Family said I am good for nothing but I finally I got an offer from Google

I am originally from a small town and did my BSc in Computer Science. My relatives and neighbours used to say that I am a good for nothing freeloader who is a "nikamma" - unemployed. It was very hard to find a job back then and I used to have deep anxiety about it. My only dream was to get my fathers appreciation. He is my biggest hero. So I started preparing very hard and practiced my skills. The only one who supported me was my mother who used to give me tea even at 3 in the morning while I used to study. Even my own father gave up on me and from time to time he used to say that if you are living under my roof then you have to follow my rules. He also used to say that look at the neighbour's ladka who got a government job and he asked me to prepare for Bank PO. So I moved out from my town and shifted to Gurgaon where I got a small PG with some money that my mother had given me. I also started freelancing on Fiverr and which led me to improve my communication skills. Finally, when I got my Google offer letter I felt like I made it. It was the best response to all the taunts by people around me. I suddenly became a superstar in my town with people congratulating my parents. I bought my mother gold bangles and dad a new watch with my first salary. I was looking at my offer letter today and it reminded me of all the hardwork I did to achieve this moment. This is the story of my life. In case anyone needs help. I am ready to provide support to aspirants here as a way to give back.
