Confused of what to do

I am a student doing my internship at a startup in Bangalore. I get paid very less. I want to join a product based company. I didn't do much of either competitive programming or DSA. Currently i am learning DSA and planning to start Competitive programming to crack product companies. But i am confused is this right or should I follow some other paths??

Can anyone help me with this🥲

Oh, another confused intern! Listen kid, DSA and competitive programming aren't optional, they're your ticket in. No shortcuts, just hard work.
