There may be 1 in thousands who can actually teach leadership without significant leadership experience. That's an outlier and the rest of them don't deserve the benefit of doubt.  
  
 I'd skip. There are books on leadership which will provide better value. I'm currently reading The staff engineer's path and I'm sure there are more books

Staff Engineer

Ofcourse more experienced than them would skip my question was more for how do they even get that confidence to post those stuffs

Software Developer

Have seen tons of post on 1-2 years experience APMs/SDEs teaching to be product leader/ Senior SDE 
Thoughts ?

Thoughts on 2 years exp teaching to be leader- Grapevine

It takes time to understand and master any domain. You have to do something substantial. Where has the humility gone? Does calling yourself Leader increases chances of getting jobs? It’s mind boggling
And shallow.

Why are 2-3 YOE people calling themselves leader(product leader , engineering leader)?

Hi , can folks here guide steps /suggest how to get SDE role at entry role . I regret giving 2 yrs a career for the civil services exam. I graduated with BTech in  2021 . If I had only sat for college placements at my Tier 1 college, I wouldn't have been living with regrets. I have been doing projects in the MERN stack . I also have skills like Postgresql, Trpc and am familiar with using ORMs and type validators like Zod . Since I had no previous experience at internship or full time , no companies are shortlisting my profile .

Need Guidance for getting SDE role after 2 yrs gap

Will entertain only serious questions that respect anonymity. I don’t mind humor, but trolling is strict no no.

Conducted one AMA session last week & was overwhelmed by both number & positive feedback. I might choose to skip any question repeated from last time.

Some things about me
- I love to code & go beyond coding
- Managed a team of around 20 people before
- I love mentoring people
- Presently overseeing the architecture and lifecycle of a suite of products

Don’t mind me giving you some useful gyan 😀

I know the title might seem weird. But here’s my dilemma 
Working as an SDE with 3 YOE in an product based company remotely. Have some developer + PM experience in a small startup before
I never took DSA seriously and just learnt the basics a long time ago. I was appreciated at the startup about how I did PM work even though I wasn’t one officially. Shipped a couple of MVPs on my own as a side gig(had around 100-200 users) 

 I miss some big tech experience definitely. So should I grind DSA and look for big SDE switch even though I don’t like it much or move to product ( the pay might be affected) or do an MBA and then do product (for strong credentials/chances)? I feel maybe I am scared to do DSA/System design since I don’t find total interest in it. 

If DSA, any suggestion on a very good course, paid/free doesn’t matter.

My final goal - build great products and learn everything about what it takes to build them.
Thanks

Study DSA in depth to build world class products or become a PM?

Hello all, I have been working since my graduation at Publicis Sapient as an SDE with experience nearing 3 years and I am starting to realise the need to switch. Would be glad to get thoughts / suggestions of product-based companies I could try for. Would also be glad to hear from people who have made a similar switch. Would be glad to hear any thoughts at all.

Thanks

I have 12 years of experience in IT industry and I have been only with 3 firms so far. Primary reason for job change has always been relocation as my personal life changed during these times. I have always been a top performer since the very beginning and I have been a manager too. But now I start loosing interest and I want to know what options do I have if I don’t want to scale up the ladder anymore. I just want to continue to remain in work to support my family but at the same time I don’t want to feel pressured to grow in career. I feel IT is not a place to retire but I don’t know what other options exist. All the technologies that I worked so hard for are almost becoming obsolete and I’m at a point where I don’t know what to do. Finding job scares me just as much as staying in the current one.

Is anyone experienced beyond 15 years and are yet just Sr. Consultants or managers and what are your thoughts?

I hope this post finds y'all well.

so I'm currently working as a SDET 2 in a product base startup and my total experience is 4 years and 10 months.
now I'm seeking a PM certification course from a reputed institute of India.

1) I want genuine opinions ( preferably from other PMs) as to whether it is the right move to switch from engineering to PM.
will it be worth the hassle ? 

2) also my current job is remote so are there decent remote PM opportunities or the role demands you to be in the office more 
( this Is an important factor) 

3) while making the switch would I have to compromise on the package since it's a role switch ? 
how much hike can I expect 
like I'm making X right now 20/30% on that ? 

would really appreciate genuine opinions.
