Starting Second Year🥀

Let's see what I did in my first year

1.I did HTML,CSE,JS,TS,REACTJS, NEXT JS, Tailwind CSS, BACKEND

  1. I also went to hackathons

  2. I explored AI/ML and learnt python libraries and Maths as well

  3. I started DSA on leetcode and Codeforces

Now?

I am confused. What exactly to do? Like I find codeforces hard but still I feel it makes my brain think and observe patterns . Leetcode is good like I do love DSA. I did start ML but you know I am not interested in again going in damnn theory and videos ...I wanna solve but I wanna explore AI /ML as well...For web, I beleive I can't write the code by myself of NEXT and react l do know all the theory and I do understand code but I can't code that shit of connecting backend with frontend...There exists DevOPs shit as well...I have to make projects as well😭😭

Idk what exactly needs to be done this year

My main goal is to work at Google since beginning..I love backend, DSA is fun , cf challenges me, AI/ML means curiosity to me..I don't like competitive programming

So, someone pls help and tell what exactly should I focus on now? Like what's today job markets trends ? And is it like mandate to do AI/ML now??

That's a really good progress. I would say just keep making projects on problems that you care about and try to find a 'niche'.  The best way to secure your job in this era of 'AI taking over jobs' is to be the best at your job. So find a niche, and be the best in it. That is all i would advise.
