So, I graduated this year and joined a startup as a frontend developer 6 months back. Previously I had around 9 months of internship experience in 2 startups.
When I was doing my 1st internship, it feels like I know everything about frontend development, I really struggled in my 2nd internship as I am somewhat bad in coding part, struggled but at the end of internship, learnt a lot, got job on that skill, not a great CTC but not too bad.
Recently, I started interviewing and seeing many posts on twitter, learnt many concepts, a simple http request has so much thing that sometime it goes out of brain, all started with an SDE-2 frontend interview at Plum, where I didn't know anything. I wanted to go for backend but I am not able to even cover whole frontend part.
I don't know if it is normal or not but I feel software engineering is not my cup of tea even though I am handling all the frontend stuff at my company and thinking to switch into product side of things(product management).
Seeking some advice what should I do?
Don’t go hard on yourself bud Things take time
It’s good that you’re doing self assessment. You know what you don’t know.
Just start learning these things if they interest you ^.^
Virtual hugs 🫂
Yep, started learning bit by bit. Hopefully, will grow from here:) Thanks for the hugs🥹
You are thinking too much, it’s not that devs out there know everything similarly for product role as well
You can always switch, but other side can be also have a similar experience
Sit on this problem for sometime, you might figure out things
