How am i supposed to compete in this field. Completely mentally drained.
I have been working in a startup for about 2.5 years now on React+Springboot stack. I have created multiple projects and learned various new technologies like ELK stack for client requirements. For the last 2 months i keep applying on Naukri, linkedIn but not even a single call back. I don't know what more they want.
I have learned and implemented these new technologies and languages yet these are not enough. So i thought maybe i should start doing DSA, System Design for future preparations.
But mentally i don't know how to keep going. Its literally draining me to do even a easy problem and learning other things. I am trying to force myself to sit for more hours and study, study but it isn't working. I am easily getting distracted.
And now i have to worry about these "AI taking jobs" too. I try to keep my mind off from it and just focus on upskilling but it gets to me every now and then.
Does anyone else feel this way and how do you recover from this? I want to keep going because i love coding but not able to focus.
