I am currently working as a software developer in an MNC. Now my confusion of my life got cleared. Thanks for the awesome video.

[partharanke]

so basically, CP is for GETTING a job, and SD is for DOING a job

[samyakkumarsahoo]

In present scenario which is preferable:-
1. A higher rank at any coding platform along with some projects on my area of interest
2. Major projects with intermidiate knowledge in DSA and DAA
3.Should I balance them and learn parallely .

[raghavddps]

This doubt is now solved for a generation of engineers to come!

The takeaway for me:

Competitive Programming improves your debugging skills and you write code faster.
On the other hand, Software Development helps you write clean code
Design Pattern helps you write clean code

Perfect time to fit AlgoExpert, You have marketing skills as well. Btw Great video by Rachit Jain (CP, SDE and Marketing Expert) 🙂

[AbrarAhmed-szqz]

What a beautiful video, got all of my questions answered. Subscribed!

[abhishekmishra]

He indirectly mentioned that whatever is asked in an interview, is not applied/much use in the work that you are going to do there.

These big four companies have forced schoolification of the whole process. Just the very reason IIT like places hated coaching centers. It has taken out the originality out of engineers. Once they get selected they dedicate their whole life for singing about the process, while they could be much more. It seems like the best thing in their life is to attach themselves with such organizations. Why don't we see such people to go higher up in the ladder, if they are really so good. Why not a startup from such people who sing song for the process.

[samruddhikadam]

Completely agreed on how software development helps with real life problems

[veyinir]

You're such a deep learner.. Thanks a lot for your mentoring ❤️

[abhishtgupta]

Rachit Sir! I am an ECE student but really into software development. I have seen and experienced both worlds of competitive programming and also software development during my internship at Cadence. But one part is missing from your great learnings. We need to make projects that actually bridge this gap between two of them.
Love you Rachit Sir. You are the one who guided me on this path. You are my mentor for life. Thanks for all of this 🙏🙇🙏🙇🙏💕

Hi Rachit,
So I had read about you earlier, but after seeing this video I felt like really good and relatable.
You exactly mentioned the points I had for a long time in my mind but couldn't discuss it with anyone.
So I have around 4 years of experience in software development work, from system design to backends to deployments, Nodejs, java, angular, react, Redis, messaging queue, AWS, everything.
The thing I, unfortunately, had from my college days was fear for competitive programming. I'll admit I have it now as well. Each time I think of starting that, my fear stops me. Fear of not able to do it or I don't know what. I know I need to stop fearing.
I started practicing DS Algo from GeeksForGeeks DsAlgo Paid Course, but still, I feel if somehow I could get to learn more about what the Big 4 have in their interviews.
If you've read till here, and kept the patience I just wanted to know a few tips and goto start things/places where I could really kickup for real competitive programming.
I know you're quite smart and intelligent and busy, yet I request you to just give me a few tips/guide me. I am ready to pay as well. Just I need the foundations. Hope you could have some time and maybe just talk.
Big fan here.

Rachit your videos have always helped us everytime. Not only they clear our concepts in DS and algo but also helps us to take decisions regarding our career.

[harshilparmar]

Thanks, brother, you have given me an answer which bothered me for a long time. I am starting competitive programming.

[codedecks]

you are an inspiration to all competitive programming lovers 🤓

[pranjalagnihotri]

From my college days I am trying to balance both.

I totally love to build meaningful side projects and in the process I learn a lot of things like whole new set of tools and designing the architecture of the app I am building and then build it from scratch that is a whole other level of satisfaction.

Also when I get bored from building something I take small breaks and in that time I solve lot of DSA problems.

[mrinalraj]

This video is one of its kind. Thanks for making our life so easy now.

[tanu]

You just can't get over segment trees.
Helpful video. Thanks.

[sridatta]

Great video explanation, I like the line where you say, you can apply Agile to ease your life. All the best keep inspiring.
