Burnout

-

The end of the week of final exams. A week when almost every student tries to show what he/she is capable of. Late-night studies, pressured feelings - all of these factors make students one step closer to burnout. Programmers' life is like a constant week of finals. Insomnia, loss of concentration, constant tiredness are some of the first symptoms of upcoming burnout. So, how to prevent yourself from such unwanted subsequences? Let's discuss it now. 


  1. Healthy lifestyle. Do you know that your physical health impacts your mental health? Good eating habits, 7+ hours of sleep, physical activity are fundamental points to keep your mind healthy. 
  2. Take time for yourself. Every day at least 30 minutes do something that gives you pleasure. Play games, do your favorite hobby, read books - anything that gives the feeling of relaxation and recharges you. 
  3. Go outside. Take it as a ritual to go somewhere outside at least once a week. For example, I prefer to meet with friends on the weekends and go to the cinema (can't wait to watch the new spiderman tomorrow >.<). It's time for a break. Free your mind from thoughts about upcoming deadlines.


So, here are methods of how I try to keep myself away from burnout. However, unfortunately, such situations may happen anyway. In that case, my advice for you: don't stay alone. Let your family and friends help you to return to normal condition. 


By the way, New Year is soon. Are you ready for the holidays?) 🌲🎁⛄️

I study at Inha University in Tashkent as a Junior student of the Computer Science department.  Coding is my passion.   I started coding about five years ago just by chance. I participated in a Bootcamp for girls who had never had experience in programming before. Surprisingly for me, I became a winner in a final competition. During this Bootcamp, I understood how much I enjoyed the process of creating an application that can solve specific problems. It was the first time I designed something from scratch - project idea, management, implementation. So, I decided that programming is what I want to do now and in the future. As time passes, my passion for programming becomes even stronger.  My career as a programmer began when I was 16. I used to be a front-end developer and got my first paid order. My stack of knowledge increased over years,...

Job Interview

How do you feel before the job interview? Stressed and frustrated or focused and confident? Keep calm if you are one of those who are in the first category, I am with you :) A programmer goes through a lot of interviews - behavioral interviews and further technical interviews. Although after each interview you are one step closer to your aim, stress doesn't go out. Every interview requires special preparations. So, now I will share some tips that I use to get prepared for the interview.  Prepare your questions. Before the interview starts, you can ask some questions regarding company policy and working conditions. By asking questions, you show your interest in the company. However, be serious - don't ask silly questions that can be answered by simple googling.  Research about the company. Your purpose is to find qualities the company values the most. Using this technique, you will be able to show that you suit the most for this position. Regardless of your level in programm...
