Share your thoughts (final year BTech CSE student)
Work & Career / by ventingitch

...See more I'm a final year BTech CSE (Indian tier 3 college) student i did scattered and little prep according to me and yes maybe according to others as well like students who are prepared really good I think i should give it a shot genuinely to genuine prep you know for software roles but I don't know what will happen in the future right. I made mistakes, i feel that how will I clear the online assessments i haven't done much aptitude so that's there, u see people on reddit, LinkedIn say that even many prepared candidates get 3-5 lpa packages, many engineers are jobless etc etc it's like I've established so many fears in my mind before even really giving it a honest shot Hoping there's still a way to turn things around I've been told by teachers and seniors that get placed by Dec since from Jan onwards few companies come usually non tech so four months it is you see I know only i can help myself by being disciplined and improve my skills rather than wasting more time and energy on irrelevant stuff but still And top of it you can't share this with anyone so u hold it in Since people aren't busy with their own life

...See more Honestly I've lived more in my head, compared myself to others, repeated a story in my mind again and again that there's no point in starting now, was having anxiety and stress as a result of it, really wanna change my life now Tell me the best things which have worked out for you since the mountain is literally me which i wanna overcome now also I've thought of the worst case scenarios so that I'm not delusional but there's no point cause why not be delusional like ultimately you are thinking right atleast think the absolute best P.s what i wanna know is that it gets better, starting late is better than not starting at all, you'll find your people even if you presently feel lonely, things have a way of working out for the best, you have that light within you, holding onto fear is not gonna help

...See more I have my placement season starting i started preparing I guess a month or two before but if feels scattered and right now i feel under-prepared I have the first assessment this Sunday i don't have friends who i may share this all with since they are busy with their stuff I feel that time's less what I'm doing is correct or not , the test which is on Sunday is of an easy company and i was feeling that if you are not qualifying the easy one how will you qualify others I lack discipline at present and it's kind of very difficult to not focus on others I'm really scared, i feel like whether these efforts are pointless or what People also say it's luck but what can we do about it And the problem is that I'm wasting more time by thinking why i wasted time earlier and this in turn wastes the current time I think a lot about what will happen and usually in negative manner

...See more Today in my college I was understanding the logic of a problem which a girl beside me was doing though i had already done the topic i didn't mention it since why tell others. Then this girl and another guy were telling me stuff like ohh good morning, like as if I was new to the concept and that was annoying because the thing which I was correct but they were like yeah we know it all as if they're better but the *** Like this guy was saying you have not understood it even though I had and that was annoying, the girl was annoying me but the guy annoyed me more and then i said to him that you're not that knowledgeable and then he was silent yk it felt right I took a stand for me I'm not gonna keep it in me since I want to feel the feelings, yk not consider some good some bad etc A lot anxiety comes when you are not willing to feel your feelings Like man you are human not God so even if you wanna be untouchable, or of the highest kind you still can have feelings for they are natural Yes they are dumbos, my sister annoyed me as well rn But life's good and beautiful and so is lord!!

...See more Life's good, with wonderful people, wonderful things and situations, close ones like family even care but aren't we all individuals who want ourselves as priority. I mean I say something to someone, become vulnerable then person may target it yk I earlier would keep it in myself only since i realised this quite ago but I also wanna let the good happen, like meet people who don't use your vulnerabilities. I mean like why do some trigger you you to feel bad about the smallest of things. Like i really love my sister but i slept for half an hour i guess in the room i have my placements starting in August and then in a way which i won't like she said u don't study at all, like when companies come then you'll cry about it because i do vent it to my sister, it's good as well but stuff like this also happens yk just because she wanted to exercise in the room and study. I don't want to suppress my feelings now anymore, what's meant to happen will happen. God's will. I did cuss and said thankyou to her.

...See more Hey do I'll be having my placement season starting next month and the thing is i see others, feel they've done a lot, feel like what did I do Like i take stress and have anxiety feeling that time's less then i stress and have anxiety again, waste the time I have with me and then feel bad Like I'm scared of what if I don't get a good job Because of this I get overwhelmed easily like smallest of things, i consider them catastrophic, like if I don't get a job then I'll be jobless, need to depend on someone, live a mediocre life and it's frustrating Also I've asked gpt, gemini as well like is the person late etc, I've narrated the story of being late so many times it feels like a fact maybe it's actually one but still. And the problem is that i know a lot like i gather advice from seniors etc even though knowing what needs to be done, i constantly tell myself it's late you need time to develop skills etc but even those who don't know everything they get jobs. You know I've retrospected so much i know the pattern whenever something very important goal comes close I go into this spiral of thinking now what will happen, time's less, now nothing can be done etc and i know this happening right now but still am letting it I've depended so much on others for every thing to be done i ask how to do it even though i think others also did it on their own Like my heartbeat increases, i feel this knot in my chest, throat I'm tired of not living to my potential because of this feeling and I can't tell this all to someone right There's so much to say but the post is already long enough.
