Hello Sir,
I'm currently in my final year of BTech in Computer Science at IIT BHU. Over the past three years, I've struggled to develop an interest in coding and development, unlike many of my peers. Although I tried to focus on it, I found it difficult to engage with. Now, as the placement season approaches, I'm finding it challenging to secure a job, and it's making me question whether I've wasted these three years.
Recently, I've discovered that my true interests lie in areas like business, finance, and profit-driven activities. However, I'm feeling extremely confused about what to do next. I'm not in a strong financial position, as I have an education loan to repay, and this situation is causing me a lot of stress, anxiety, and depression. What to do I don't know pls guide sir !!
Ans: Firstly, it's important to recognize that you're not alone in feeling this way, and it's good that you've identified your true interests in business, finance, and profit-driven activities. Firstly, it's important to recognize that you're not alone in feeling this way, and it's good that you've identified your true interests in business, finance, and profit-driven activities. Consider roles in product management, technical consulting, or business analysis, which often value a strong technical background but don't require heavy coding. These require considerable domain knowledge. Begin by exploring online courses or certifications in finance, business management, or economics. If possible, talk to a counselor or therapist who can help you manage anxiety and depression. You can take help of RediffGuru's in these fields. Consider further studies like an MBA if you are truly passionate about business.
