what career advice would you give to your college self?

If you had to go back in time, what advice would you give to your final year student who just starting their career. How should I approach the world, what kind of challenges do I face??.

If you hate coding, please look for other career options that you enjoy. Don't follow the crowd, follow your heart.

Don't be afraid to switch company. Treat first employer as employer only. Learn as much as you can from others( even other sister teams, make connections ) Do timepass as well. Don't think ctc/12 is your salary. Don't be afraid to pay taxes. Aim should be to pay surcharge and cess.
