Why I Quit Mechanical Engineering at 22?

Hey Reader! I'm a full-stack web developer geek who is only now beginning to blog. I have a passion for creating web apps from the ground up and enjoy learning about all the many technologies used in the process.

You can read a variety of lessons, observations, and thoughts on my Hashnode blog as I make my way through the world of full-stack web development. I'll be sharing everything I learn along the road, from introductory lessons for beginners to more complex subjects, as well as some of the difficulties I encounter and how I get beyond them.

Follow me as I learn how to build a full-stack website, one or two blog post per week! Together, let's build some amazing web applications while learning.

After completing 4 years of Full-time Degree in Mechanical Engineering, I finally decided to say goodbye to it! Let's know Why?

Hello, I am Pratik Mahadik graduated from Pune University with a 9.3 CGPA.

During my last semester, I got an offer from Capgemini for an Analyst role and I accepted it. Then I had my training for CapG known as ADAPT. As always training went well for me & completed it in Aug 2022.

After that, the term Recession came and gave a twist to my life. The onboarding that was supposed to happen didn't happen from Aug 2022 to till now. I was waiting for it but it never came.

In this phase of nearly 4 months, I came to know Web Development and I Found The Purpose of my life. After reading and watching lots of videos I finally decide to become a Full Stack Developer as it fascinates me like never before.

The decision to quit Mechanical Engineering was based on How I Want My Life to be! It just gave me Clarity and Peace that What I wanted to do in life.

What fascinates or drove me towards Web Development that we will discuss in upcoming Sunday? Every Sunday I open up about myself and share with you.

and let me tell you, " It's never too late for a new beginning in life."

If you have anything to help me out to become Full Stack Developer just comment it out so others can know.

Thank you

P

All the best Pratik for your journey to become a full stack developer. Even I am currently learning full stack development.

Hey Pratik Mahadik I'll suggest you go #100devs channel it's by far the best free bootcamp available. 1000s of people have got their job after completing it. Cohort 3 will start soon. But you can go & start learning through Leon noels YouTube channel. 2nd resource I'll suggest is Odin school. Stick with these & you'll be good to go. Don't fall in tutorial hell or hop around courses. Follow one & build projects. Don't worry about Capgemini you'll get better offers it you're consistent.
