One advice you’d give yourself now after having a few years of work exp
What is that one piece of advice you’d give your younger self or someone who’s starting off now after working for a few years.
Mine would be that despite the hunger to prove yourself always take the time off to enjoy your success both personally and with people close to you.
Time is something you’ll never get back.
- Mental health and well being is more important than any amount of money, don’t get burned out
- Get mentor who can guide you through early phases of your career
- Devloping good comm skills helps you throughout your career, esp if you see yourself in a leadership role someday
Dont try to prove yourself to anyone, especially some manager. They come and go by the dozen, just hone your interpersonal skills and subject matter. You will save a lot of time and grief if you don't constantly try to impress someone
Don't get into groupism. That thing will not evolve your career.
I second that .
What do you mean by groupism? Sorry don't know about that
- Stand next to the smartest person in the room. Surround yourself with smart people
- Always save x% of your salary, x should be double digits. Once you get salary, this should be invested and 100 - x is what you have for expenses. That way, in the long term you’ll be wealthy and you’ll spend wisely.

Never lose your character or what you are to adjust to you job. You'll regret it later that you have become a completely different person.
I always say to my ppl to take care of their weight and waist. Have a personal hobby outside work. Have no mobile day in a week.
Might be a very specific advice but.
Don't be scared. You've stepped into the real world, you might be intimidated and scared that you'll break things. It's okay, a lot of people make mistakes all the time, and this is the only way to learn. If you are risk adverse in your job, you will end up in a position where you are senior and end up making basic mistakes which you cannot afford. So don't shy away from risks early on.
If you are the smartest and the best in your current role, time to move on
if you are a starter then try not to work for a service based company and don't try to sign any sort of bond or contract with them
Is there any particular Reason?
well service based companies just do mass hiring and mass firing at times work culture is often not that good to be honest and signing a bond is illegal and bad they just threaten you all the time if you leave they won't give the experience
