I never liked DSA, I always felt it is just unproductive and stupid. Though, I am doing well because of my dev experience, and in the fields of platform and site reliability engineering, I still feel DSA as big challenge to handle, while switching companies. I never did it nor I have the time to do it now. Its a struggle when you know that DSA will be of no use for you, but still you have to deal with it. I would say that its not a necessary evil but a evil made necessary.

Summary: Personal DSA Journey: Started learning Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) in college (2014) with C++. Focused heavily on competitive programming and ICPC until around 2016. Transitioned to full-time development after college but found DSA foundational for interview success without intensive re-preparation. DSA in Remote Interviews: Freelancing platforms (like Toptal) require rigorous DSA knowledge; toughest interviews in DSA are often encountered here. Smaller or ad-hoc companies usually don't emphasize DSA much. Larger companies (Series A to big tech) often have basic to moderate DSA rounds, generally manageable with standard preparation. Impact of DSA on Career: Proficiency in DSA opened significant career opportunities, including remote jobs and transitioning out of onsite roles. Missing out on DSA could mean losing potential job opportunities that value this skill set. Learning DSA Effectively: Consistency and setting goals (like preparing for ICPC) are key. Group learning and participating in contests enhance problem-solving skills. Early mastery of DSA can prevent the need for re-learning later and provides a competitive edge in job interviews. DSA in Real-world Scenarios: Although complex algorithms are rarely used in daily job tasks, strong DSA skills ensure success in interviews throughout one's career. Familiarity with DSA enables one to tackle challenging interview problems and simplifies the job-switching process.
Hi harkirat, I am writing this question in hope that you will read this and answer , I have done coding(dev) in my college and I was confident that I could land a job but now I am not able to find my interest whether it is frontend, backend, Mobile, cloud or something else. I am very confuse right now , I have taken a break of 3-4 months now but still nothing is coming in my mind now . And now I am getting thoughts of going into government jobs , but I don't want to waste what I have learnt for those 3 yrs of my college life
Bro listen, just join a start up as a full stack and do apply all this and then find your interest which you like most and move with it. Hope it will be helpful Don't go with salary in starting
What about web3 jobs? I show the video of Tanay Pratap in that he is telling web3 is dead in 2024. Just asking because I may start my career as a blockchain developer if I will clear 3rd round of interview. Please share your thoughts.
The usual advice I saw everybody giving was web development has sort of reached close to it's peak so not much new technology will enter the market so whatever you learn in web development now will still be relevant as long as web development is relevant (which it most likely will be) but on the other hand as AI is growing at a rapid pace, new technologies, frameworks, tools, etc and emerging rapidly so whatever tools you learn today might be irrelevant in the future because some library will take over it or something along those lines. So the majority of the people said learn web development in about 6 months and then move on to any other form of development you are interested in (which in mine and your case is AI) because you need some web development skills regardless in order to apply your AI learnings in projects and you have web development as a backup to fall back on in case something weird happens with AI in the future.
Hi Harkirat, I need your guidance here. Please help! I am working as Python Developer at a large investment bank for the past 2 years almost now. I did my bachelors in Mechanical Engineering, which is the reason why, I didn't do any DSA in my college, only Python projects and courses in my Final year due to my heavy interest in AI and Machine Learning. But, now I want to boost my CTC as well as get more interesting work in Python and Machine Learning. Hence, looking to switch for career growth now, so what do you suggest should I be doing to prepare for the job switch? Also, I might get an admission into anyone from Top 15 Indian MBA colleges this year through CAT, so should I go for that, or just stay in Software and try to get higher packages as well as try for Global MBA colleges? The reason for choosing an MBA, is my aspiration to become an AI Manager in next five years or a decade. Your perspective would really mean a lot! Many Thanks!
Bro I have similar aspiration as yours, so i want to know is it easy to get intern or job in this field in starting phase which I think would be important for some exposure for management work

Learn Data structures and Algorithms Using C++ or Java as ur choice. Lot of people use Java though. But C++ is bit faster than Java whereas Java gives priority to Security. If you feel it is tough to learn concepts like DSA, learn cloud computing. You can learn AWS or Azure. Cloud has good career opportunities.

It's funny how kids listen to a guy who has never worked at FAANG xD!! It's like trying to traverse Everest with a guy who has never peaked the mountain before. Having some XYZ rank on some XYZ online judge doesn't mean you can crack FAANG interviews.

Most FAANG interviewers won't even care about syntax or "getting the correct answer" as much as your approach to solving the problem and discussing why you chose a way of solving over the other.
