Competitive Coding Vs Software Development | ALL College students must watch!

In this video, I talk about the dilemma many college students in India have: Software Development vs Competitive Coding. Should you spend your time on software development (i.e. building websites and apps) or should you get into the world of solving competitive coding problems?

I also talk about why FAANG companies prefer asking complicated competitive coding questions in coding interviews(which has very few application as a software developer) versus asking software dev questions.
