From sad, depressed to landing my first Internship

Wannabe web developer

3 days ago, i was totally worried, i was questioning my decisions to start my career as a developer. I was so clueless, sitting the whole day in front of my screen, waiting and browsing for any possible job postings and applying to them as fast as possible.

Even though i somewhat knew inside, its practically impossible for me to land a job anywhere, anytime soon. Its just pure cutthroatness right now in the software development world. For every job posted there is person better than you, who has more experience that you, who has better connections than you and can directly get through the interview with straight up referrals. How does one create his mark here, if a person never really gets the opportunity to show or do something.

Anyways, i decided to apply for internships as well, because I've never really worked in a workplace before anytime, so i am total fresher with no internship or any experience. This is the worst possible scenario to be in 2024 as any developer.

But yeah, somehow from nowhere while i faced rejection from pretty much every job i applied to, i got a acceptance letter from a early pre-seed startup who is trying to integrate Artificial intelligence with everything law and paperwork.

And guess what, in the interview for the following position your boi aced it.

So yeah, this is going to be my first ever time as a developer.

Today i can say i've successfully transitioned to a tech job atleast professionally.

Although not to get excited there is still a ocean of stuff that I have no idea of, there is just too much stuff to learn and just get better at.

Lets get it, by the end of this year, i am going surprise the fuck out of myself.

Lets conquer new boundaries, domains and just live and celebrate fucking life.
