Every niche we come across all the social media platforms, from content creator's perspective, They are doing their Job, the trend of Hooks and CTA has gone soo worst that even if you genuinely wanted help people at the phase of marketing your skills or knowledge it feels miss leading.

      Lol just because you are seeing a video about a person telling the basic thing which you would have also understood if you have used a little bit of brain you had. You think you are on a right path. Logo ko course beechna hai isliye yeh sab trend karta hai aur log khudka research karte nhi hai isliye agar koi banda aake unhe bolde ki yeh sab galat hai toh uska hi baat maan lenge. Ab kya guarantee hai ki yeh banda badme 2-3 saal ke baad course nhi beechega nhi bol sakte kuch bhi. Just focus on yourself and research on your own ki kya hai aslihahat aur kya nhi hai.

    Great video. I made a video about it a while ago, but about a year ago I quit my job as a SWE to do content creation full time. I found that the more videos I did relating to careers in tech, the more disingenuous it was on my part.
    Switching my content to a more edu-tainment style has been the best thing for my channel. It means I can still code and do creative things.
    More so, it’s changed the way people see my content, people want to learn code through the videos that I make vs learn code through the claims that I make.

    Very well-made video. I would just like to address the parts about Tech with Tim and Fireship. Fireship often uses a heavy sarcasm in his video, so what might seem to be scare tactics on his part, he did - on multiple videos - expressed frustration with AI tools when trying to make something serious. He even has a video "5 reasons AI kinda suck". As for Tech with Tim, he has a video titled "I Was Wrong About ChatGPT Replacing Programmers," and there, he does admit that he got on the "AI will take our job" hype train in the beginning, but after multiple months of using AI tools, his perspectives have now changed. And this video I am talking about is not a YT Short, it is a full-length video of 8:51.
    But the points you make in this video are important. The best interests for TH-camrs are that we keep watching, and to achieve that, they do sometimes resort to misleading tactics.

    Very good video!
    I wanted to add, part of my bachelors requirement had me reviewing the software engineering skills gap. The bulk of the literature showed that the actual technical skills AREN'T that important to employers, they're concerned more about soft skills, how well you work with others, communication, teamwork, etc.
    It was a shock to me because everything you see/hear is about how to "upskill," but you really want to focus on developing good social skills. Spending all your time trying to improve your technical skills could actually be making it harder for you to find work if you neglect those social skills employers want.

That ezsnippet guy brings nothing to the table than his literal misogyny and superiority complex. Also none of these so called youtubers mention the 2020 covid boom and how companies were hiring , none of them mention that they got lucky as well. Majority of these youtubers are from good tier 1 colleges hence good college placement and then they make videos how they got that package not once they say its a low easier for on campus than off campus. THESE people then brings out their friends and then make PODCAST ABOUT HOW THEY SWITCHED FROM AMAZON TO UBER like seriously dude .

    Indeed, you're correct. I recall discussing this matter with a friend employed at a prestigious IT company. He recounted an incident where they hired two individuals who successfully navigated interviews at major companies like Uber and Amazon, only to resign within four months due to underperformance. Despite receiving high ratings from interviewers, these candidates struggled in actual roles. It highlights a common trend where candidates focus solely on interview preparation, neglecting actual job performance.

One more thing that refrained me from thinking anything bad was, "The gratitude" that you spoke about. I was like: "My college wasn't teaching me a thing even after charging so much money but then their are these people who atleast gave me some path".

    This shit is real dude , I was preparing for 2 years , dsa and developement and when the placement season started , hardly 1-2 companies asked dsa , and that too very easy . in my pannel for interview , there were stuents who havent done anything and having KT as well. though they get selected I get rejected . 90% of luck is involved in the hiring process . but this people wont tell you this . Nice to see that someone is talking about this.

    I am also in IT space and I openly accept that I don't want lakhs or crores of rupees as my salary not because I don't like the IT field. But because I know to be a good skilled software developer you need to have some level of DSA understanding and no matter what you say, I don't want to learn it, period. IT field is not just limited to writing codes, but it's also spanning outwards and making the navigation in the tech space easy for even kids. Anyways, I loved the way you spoke the truth and for this reason I know you deserve to be subscribed and followed.

      Wow its like u read my mind. I m also not interested in 50-60 LPA just enough to not suffer thats it. I like this field but dont like its monetization so much Programming is meant to make like easier for all of us not to turn this to massive business like most of youtuber do. I have seen so many people who make AI projects or whatever to impress recruiters but they rarely they tried to make something useful for even themselves. IKEA effect is really satisfying and big motivation to explore many things.
      About the DSA thing, i dont hate DSA even though i m bad at it. But one thing i truly hate is competitive coding as it destroys the essence of DSA.. CC is all about optimization or tricks to run certain function. That code may be optimized but may not be scalable or good enough to maintain. Companies ask questions and give coding problems related to it bcz its most convenient for them

    I was just roaming around and found this video.

    I guess why most people fall for this trap is that they don't know the road map.
    That is what happened to me too.
    (mind you that I never brought any course and you don't need to either.) TH-cam already has soo many courses.
    So what is the road map to become a react developer? As I'm also in this journey to become a react developer. I finally found it. So what is it?
    Just go through mock interviews(in youtube or medium etc) and collect all the topics mentioned for react or for javascript or typescript) then start grilling youself theoretically. and builds projects on top of it(initially mini projects). One thing to keep in mind is that if you memorise you will forget, so keep on building things. Stack overflow is you friend.
    And DSA, well for that just take any DSA sheet(this days so many are available) and practice array and string problems. You obviously need to know linkedlist queue, stack and tree basics. It is not that complicated I realised that after actually trying.
    Write notes and keep on adding topics as you discover them.

    I have been in this rabbit hole of getting sucked into this YT coding culture and I did realize that it was not right the hard way, I just moved towards books, learning some new technology takes time and couple of YT videos cannot be a substitute for it. Learn old tech like C and gain deep understanding of things actually work this will make you appreciate the abstractions which new tech offers and understand it better, it takes time and effort, don't hurry, you don't have to build the next unicorn. I strongly feel in the long run money should not be the motivation upskilling should be, money will follow, just my opinion.

Bcoz the main point here is exaggeration , sid never mentioned here that dont take courses or all courses is bad (infact he said that if find real value of your influencer's course without some promise of unreal returns then go for it ) but any course thats sold on the pretext of unreal marketing of selling highly utopian dreams is straight on immoral and wrong and you can love or hate or simply ignore ppl but being such an intelligent and talented guy i guess ppl like you , kirat and neeraj sud know in their heart thats wrong. Come on everyone knows how the indian middle class mentality is and how the youtube algo works , thats why you see all these financial influencial scammers who are not even registered under SEBI advocating for harmful stuff left and right and promoting them, both the financial influencers selling these crazy dreams of becoming rich and the ed tech influencers are doing wrong , atleast those idiots are mostly untalented fks but you guys are much better than that. I have high respect for kirat as he is someone who doesnt advocate for dsa too much or maang though the person who makes his titles and thumbnails are pure cringe and highly believe it doesnt suit his personality , i guess same goes to you , its high time you look at the thumbnails and titles before releasing the video as its said with great power comes great responsibility

    @iitiankibaat 7 หลายเดือนก่อน +4

    I completely agree with your video, and a lot of points on it man, but one thing that you are missing out is the fact that by saying that the IT industry is meritocracy based and that there exists a top 1% of coders. a lot of young people are being motivated to become the best version of themselves. Yes, it is completely true that there is no such metric to measure who are the top 1% and on what basis. But by considering a hypothetical top segment, a lot of people are able to exploit their full potential by the motivation that they can reach that tier. Which I think is one positive side of it. Also, the scenario in which a less skilled guy might get hired due to asking a lower wage is completely valid. But again, it’s a niched situation, so you cannot generalize that a guy with less merit will always be hired over a more deserving candidate. Even if such situation exists, in majority of cases, a better candidate is usually selected if they reach the final rounds, again exceptions are there as you already said. Initial rounds are kind of an if for either type depending on the firm. I am from IIT kharagpur, coding since sixth grade, developing websites since High school. Have significant experience in open source community. Highlighting these just to say that I didn’t take the course out of desperation for getting a job, or that I have problems in placement. But to show that I found the cohort 1 by Harkirat to be pretty good given the level of depth to which he went into individual topics, something that you rarely find in the low quality content available on TH-cam by bhaiya didi YTers. Obviously, you can learn everything for free on the internet, but again the information is discrete. And not, everybody has the same level of adeptness at researching. Also, there are a lot of firms that visit our colleges like QuadEye, graviton, Tower Research capital, Jane street etc, which actually are great companies whose hiring process is completely based on meritocracy, with emphasis on computer science fundamentals, something that most bhaiya didi TH-camrs who keep their scam going in the name of GSOC and development completely ignore (maybe because they themselves are incompetent at that level of depth). You are doing a good job, but what i feel is you should always place both sides of the coin. On one side, there is no such crazy metric as 1% club and not everything is merit based, but on the other side, being a highly skilled and knowledgeable coder actually pays in the long run. As India is any way slowly becoming famous to the world for polluting opensource due large pool of low quality engineers.

    As a software developer from a non-IT background who grinded for years to get into this field, there are couple of things which no one talk about: LUCK and JOB availability. Luck plays a very critical role in the job hiring process including getting the right vaccany info at right time with right timing for incoming new projects to get hired easily and vice versa when projects are canceled or delayed. One need to really grind hard in initial stages and only after certain period of life the career looks very promising and till that date, its a hectic hexausting dead loop of what i am doing, i dont belong here, etc.

    Man, this video is such a breath of fresh air. I totally agree with you that you are what you are because of experiences that you went through. We learn by doing which is most necessary when doing software. If you don't make mistakes, you will never learn. If you make mistakes and you spend 1 day or 1 week trying to rectify that problem, you will learn not to repeat such a thing again. Mistakes make you better. This is what Primeagen says as well. Everyone you can do a task if you tell them how to do it and what steps to take, but if you only tell them to do this task, figure out how to do it on your own. The latter will teach you things that the former wouldn't be able to teach you in over a year.
    Love you for saying this man.

Instead of blindly following the narrative we instead should research something on our end. Thank you for making this video and giving a reality check

    1.) Get a High Paying LPA job in MAANG
    2.) Then making 10 - 15 videos how they landed the job.
    3.) Then emphasis that how talented they are and they can help you in your career
    4.) Then start creating courses, selling them, even creating a website to teach other ppl.
    5.) Showcase their hidden talent that they always loved teaching when they are still naive and in their mid 20s..
    6.) And then finally when the hype is created and enough audience is attracted to their courses they resign from their jobs, gloryfying & justifying their idea of quitting the job..
    In the END the ppl who suffer the most is the middle class hard working coders or job aspirants who get preyed by them.

    Thank you. I think we need the reminder that "No one knows what they are doing." It also seems as though the youtubers come from a society where it has become the norm to speak on your opinions as though they are fact. I know when I was growing up and learning tech, the people in my life who had authority regularly dismissed many of my preliminary approaches to things and spoke on what they knew as though it was not only more sound, but somehow timeless.
    I think one of the reasons these youtubers are so successful at the tactics you mentioned is because normal people are bombarded by these same tactics in so many other places. Until you get in the field, everything on the inside is a mystery. And that extends from the work itself to the technologies. Documentation seems to be a known issue for many parts of tech.
    This unnecessarily big void of unknowns can really make it seem as though we need someone to help guide us through. But I think that's what we keep forgetting. The is big void is big. It's so big in fact that no one person can map everything out. You must journey through it to get anywhere in the field and to, like you said, make your own path.
    The youtubers have to face the big void at as well. But we forget that what they say is based on what they saw. And what they saw is based on the snapshots they are able to get when they have access to their portion of the void.
    Sorry for rambling. This video says everything I want to say but that the people I know won't listen to.

    Never had a Sofware Developer job, have been self-teaching for the last 3 years and built many applications for my portfolio and felt ready, when I got to my first interview I forgot how to program and had to improvise on very simple coding challenges, I didn't get the job and it was a shame because the interviewer liked me and seemed like we got along. I stopped applying for jobs after that interview and focused on learning what I should have learned first, the fundamentals networks, operating systems, algorithms , data structures and design patterns. I haven't surrender because last year I remember that I felt in love with coding despite the fact I dropped out of college to pursue this career mainly for the money and I know it's too late to regret that decision. All that said, I see how the world and the industry is going and i'm really just thinking to also learn a blue collar skill, garnering or electrician, or something more niche.

    Thank you for this video. Currently, I am on a journey to make web-based software applications, and my mentor uses PHP for the development. I got discouraged by many videos on TH-cam saying that PHP is outdated and many other things that were discouraging. You have cleared my self-doubt because now I understand, as you have mentioned, that every language is designed to fulfill specific requirements. Currently, my requirement is to create software for clients whose user-base or databases are very small, so I see why PHP is being used here. And in my journey, if I ever need to deal with large amounts of data or users, I will be warned to use something more appropriate.
