How to save India from destruction?
I'm starting a new job and I'm scared shitless. I feel like I'm a fraud and don't deserve to be around these amazing people at this amazing company. I'm struggling to not have a freakout. Halp.
I’ve been there. I’ve also felt it some at Airbnb. But they’re probably not as amazing as they seem.
That's what i thought too but I'm three weeks in and they're still pretty amazing. Still waiting for the shoe to drop 😭
I switched recently within HW, so a different scope. But you should be lost for a few weeks. If anybody could immediately step in to be an expert, then anybody could do the job. Ask a lot of questions, it will show that you are proactive and you will learn. The only stupid questions are the ones that aren't asked due to ego.
So, welcome to your new life, you belong there, adjust the point of view from your old perfectionist self
Been there a few times. Still feel that way sometimes. Colleagues have told me I’m amazing, knowledgeable, etc. and I’m still surprised. Had to stop the habit of trying to downplay my talents and just accept a compliment with grace. You’ll relax after you’ve been there a few months. Best of luck!
Come to PayPal. You have zero chance of imposter syndrome once you meet your peers.
Bahahaha. Solid burn.
Imposter syndrome is real. So many super smart people here. Fake it till you make it.
Just take it and keep learning. No one is perfect Keep an open mind. Never lose confidence.
Yes and it will get better. You need to find and show your strength, bc not everyone is perfect in all areas. Focus on what makes you a "not imposter"
If you're in the room, you're qualified to be in the room.
You will acclimate in a few months unless ur doing something super cool imo.
