I hope to get some more detailed comments about this career.

Doctor: renowned university but not all setteled
What I keep wondering about is something like this: doing mbbs in India through government quota takes so much efforts and sleepless nights but what makes me think abt it is the fact that even after so much efforts not all doctors are owning huge hospitals or a lot of respect.. I see many of the top students in small clinics in small streets doing a day and night job.. With not much money and respect.. Why does this happen... It is obvious that in order to be a doctor one definitely needs the skill and knowledge aren't these kinda scenarios objecting these as though being successful with the occupation one is not able to succeed in left.. #doctor #humanresourcewaste #JULY20

Does TARGET SCHOOL really matter?
According to what I've heard about the recruitment process of top IBD/Consulting firms, "target school" is the very first step to help you stand out. That's to say, without a privileged bachelor background on your resumé, it would seem to be impossible for you to enter those firms no matter what other qualification you've had. Then I was wondering if those so-called "target school" is really that vital compared with candidate's qualities? #JULY20

How do you overcome imposter syndrome?
As a self-taught web developer, I often wonder whether I am competent enough to apply for web developer jobs that typically require a degree in Computer Science & require 2+ years (or more) of relevant work experiences for junior web developer position. The requirement section in the job post seems to expect A LOT from the candidates. Some front-end developer positions also require candidates to know back-end technology/languages. Some job posts simply list out all the preferred skills they are looking for in a candidate. When I look at the job description, it just seems like I can never meet all of their requirements. Most likely, I only meet 50% ~60% of the requirements. While I'm confident about my ability to pick up things quickly, many companies want to hire experienced people :( 1. What's your career advice? 2. What would you do if you were in my shoes? 3. If you are a Hiring Manager / Engineering Team Lead, how much weight would you put on a candidates' soft skills during the interview? Would soft skills trump the technical skills in your hiring decisions? Candidate A: Technical skills(85%) + soft skills (60%) Candidate B: Technical skills (70%) + soft skills (75%) Thank you for your time to read my post & your willingness to help out a Web Dev Ninja -to-be All the best & Take Care! :)) #JULY20 #career #careerAdvice #technology #coding #interview-prep #impostersyndrome #WebDevelopment #technicalSkills #softSkills #HR #humanresource #jobpost
