hello, I am in my senior year and will be joining as software engineer at a big automobile company. However, product design has really piqued my interest in the last few weeks.

Would you say UX is really much more competitive even for senior positions? (because swe is also too competitive in junior positions). I am a bit confused about my long term career (whether should I stick to swe or transition to product design role). This dilemma is very confusing and your inputs would be valuable :D
Every field is competitive, what you’ll succeed in depends on what you enjoy doing more and what you’re willing to put the work in.
Was in the same boat when I started. Went with what I enjoyed more.
