I have been attending lot of interviews but not able to go through even the first rounds. I have nearly 7years experience in the industry. I mostly work on backends. I worked on iOS Android php node Java golang projects. My recent project included writing APIs backed by hyperledger using node. I also have a hacker news spin called 8hrs.xyz

Most of the interviews feel like a test. Not one of them gives me feedback even though I specifically asked for it. Lot of interviewers just ask questions from geeksforgeeks. I know data structures and algorithms are as important as other things. I know I lack grip on Ds and algos. Not that I don't like working for current company but its been 3yrs here. I'm not married yet. My mother always worries about that. No girlfriend, it's just Indian thing. I am going bald. My eyesight is decreasing and I blame computers for that. My last three meetings with girl's family side went sideways. It gives me anxiety to look at people talk about what happens if ones skill set goes obsolete. I used find it hard to stay feeling ignored by everyone and about the whole living. I did green and alcohol. After a long period of high I stopped all that and started going to gym, relearning mathematics with the help of YouTube and online resources. I took up photography. My nieces love me. I learned to ignore the bullshitters and started trying to live a good life.
