Some ways I combat imposter syndrome: 1. Realizing everyone writes garbage code (all code is not perfect, essentially) 2. Reading more on the technology I'm working on 3. Building small projects outside of work 4. Listening to podcast and KZbinrs in the industry, such as yourself, Mayuko

[@AnastasiaKVL]

What I feel like helps me to battle impostor syndrome as a Data Scientist: 1. Writing down consistently my projects, contributions, and accomplishments. 2. Networking at work and events, and asking a lot of questions about other DSes experiences. 3. Doing pet projects I am invested in and curious about. Learning and value! 4. Mastermind groups. 5. Public speaking Hope this helps to anyone who's feeling not sure about them right now :)

[@b00dyc0unt]

Nice list, Anastasia! Good luck to you.

[@jameshizon4861]

Thanks. I also am in field of data science and am strongly a lot because I still dont have a job in the field.

[@piruleibbe]

Doing everything on this list will make you go from being an imposter to being a reference haha

[@blueberrydiw8340]

This is amazing, I’m going to do this from now on. Thank you for sharing.

[@TheHollowayPower]

What are mastermind groups?

[@Vanessa-so9hn]

I suffer from impostor syndrome to the point where it makes me want to quit. In my first job my boss just randomly assumed I know certain things a couple times (even though it was my first job and I had no experience whatsoever), which ended up in me thinking I SHOULD know these thing and not asking questions. Eventually I quit because I'd put too much pressure on myself. And another thing that's contributing to that is, no matter what project I'm working on, I always work with seniors. It is hard to constantly be the least knowledgeable in the room.

[@jensenraylight8011]

i think it's not your fault, it's the company fault , they've failed on onboarding and training their employees

[@TheAbhorrent1]

Vanessa im not sure what job you had but some jobs can be like that, even if there's no experience to be had there is still a baseline of knowledge to be had. Also it's ok to ask questions even if you should know it. No such thing as a dumb question because if you ask you're only dumb for a short while whereas if you don't ask you're dumb forever. And I'm not sure of the relationship with your seniors on the projects but thats a good place to be since you can learn from them, unless they expect you to be at the same level as them. Remember they were once the least knowledgeable person in the room. If you don't know something be honest and do your best to figure it out

[@ByFuckencio]

Right now I'm felling that way... I got a promotion in my job, and since it's not my area, I want to quit to because I feel anyone can do it better than me :(

[@lazybeastz182]

[@suikasuika4157]

i exeperiance the same right know, it's my first junior job and when all my friend had a months or more to learn the technologies of their compagny i had none, had to start on stuff i never used and had dead line on it for a client. i take ten time to do what someone there could do it so fast i think about quit too, feel like they can"t manage a junior yet and i can"t be as fast as they excpect for few months minimum, specialy when they hired me as ful stack i'm going to change project with another tech i don"tknow , i work late i work on week-end to not be too slow , i used to love programming but now i just hate every day i have.

[@MickElrath]

Definitely had this when I started my current job. I felt like I oversold myself at the interview and like I didn't fit in.

[@yeaungzan3839]

I always have this thought process that other people who are better than me should have this opportunity and not me. I am slowly getting better at stopping this way of thinking but some times i just cant help myself.

[@NOCLUEinvalid]

A good way to reframe that is that they should have the opportunity as well!

[@TheAbhorrent1]

There will always be those better than you and you'll always be better than someone else, they will have more opportunities same as you will. Dont sell yourself short

[@Sagalayy]

[@b00dyc0unt]

[@borgar144]

I've experienced this even though I'm still not in the industry. Back in 12th grade, I was doing great on programming class and when the prof grouped us in 3 and gave us a project, she's having a high expectation from me that I would carry the group and be the leader. Upon the project defense, we didn't really met her project expectation and she told me in face that she had high hopes from me. I felt so devastated that day. The disappointment of other people's view of me. From that point on, I changed my way and started laying low on not trying to stand out in the class. I've applied this way now that I'm at college and not really confident about my skills.

[@amaan06]

Happened similar with me in my 10th grade🙃

[@immortaljanus]

In the beginning of 2020, I quit a job I spent 5 years on and went to be a business analyst at a fintech company. They needed someone to make specifications for the developers to build a product. Three months in the job and I'm down with the worst impostor syndrome ever. I go talk to my colleagues and tell them I'm afraid I'll be fired because there's so much I don't know and I have no idea where to get the necessary knowledge. They smiled and told me not to worry. Two months later I was fired. So yeah, 2020 is fun.

[@006umer]

Bro, thats deep

[@skylerbrown7571]

I have been needing this thank you for posting this. Love the content you put out.

[@neylion6348]

My advice for battling impostor syndrome is to challenge yourself while depending on others for support. If you dive into something that you don’t know and ask your colleagues for help when you don’t understand something, you’ll soon feel comfortable in that area. If you on the other hand avoid everything that makes you feel uncomfortable you will likely keep feeling like an impostor. Be transparent with things you find confusing or don’t fully understand, but show that you want to learn. You asking colleagues for help also makes it is easier for others to do the same and can help them battle their own impostor syndrome, while creating a nice ”high ceiling”-work environment.

[@anggiharahap8659]

Thank you Mayuko for sharing your experience in this video. It's such a great timing as my impostor syndrome kicks in lately, and whenever that happens, I got sleep deprived because I'm forcing myself to do or learn something to ease my guilt for not being a better engineer. IMO the hardest thing from having impostor syndrome is trusting yourself that you can do it. My confidence level has been decreased rapidly since I started programming at college until now that I'm a Software Engineer (it's almost 10 years already). Whenever I did a mistake, I blame myself and become very disappointed about myself. But yeah, I have to overcome it to become not only a better Software Engineer, but also a better person To all people who is experiencing impostor syndrome, you're not alone and we can go through this 👊

What a great video, thank you so much for addressing this in such a clear and kind manner, as an Engineer, I can definitely relate (perhaps more than I should). Often I feel like people in tech are put under a huge amount of pressure to deliver to unreasonable targets (whether set for profit or to satisfy a specific customer, it doesn't make much of a difference) - I do think that a more collaborative environment, perhaps even a mentorship type of relation with a colleague, might help, but these days such things are hard to find nowadays.

I already tried speaking to my manager that I wasn't performing well and i feel like i might be fired. He didn't reassure me, he told me basically "then do better. You've been here for 2 years and if you don't perform higher compared to then im afraid to say maybe you should work elsewhere" Took me some time to realize this guy was a toxic asshole and the environment i was at was a sinking ship with a high turnover rate. A good work environment is the one you described, a bad one is the ones that expect you to work like a machine and even if you performed well they will keep adding pressure to do even better or you're a gonner.

Thanks mayuko from this video. Got everything on point regarding Impostor Syndrome. Months before I graduated in my IT degree, I already got a job in a big multinational IT company. At first, I was so hyped and pumped-up to kick-off my career but only a week passed by, I experience a huge attack of Impostor Syndrome (I didn't know the term back then, never knew it existed back then). I fear rejection that I might get fired for underperforming. I saw my workmates doing pretty good and seems like they mastered already the coding and everything in the projects that we are working. So i was like, I have no idea how I get here, I do not belong to this group of people,(especially since I got assigned to a project that I do not know the codebase architecture and the programming language). My anxiety became worst to the point that my health is affected, that I do not have the appetite to eat and I can't have a peaceful sleep because of overthinking about my situation. Then so, I quit. Honestly, when I recovered from it, I regret that I quitted because I got defeated by my thoughts and overthinking. Now that I build up myself, I am planning to go back to Software development industry. I am preparing myself more especially mentally and emotionally to overcome Impostor syndrome that severely beat me years ago. Will always go back to this video once I am encountering an attack, in which case I will prevent the old times from happening again. Sorry for the long message. Hope everyone is doing well and may we all reach our dreams and overcome Impostor Syndrome.

[@BikkiBlazes]

Hi Mayuko , great video.... while you were describing imposter syndrome , it became clear that nearly anyone who knows html and css can make a website but when it comes to javascript/react/angular ... the core norms of frontside.. that a 3ft wading pool of HTML drops off to the Marianas trench; Since alot of coding is geared toward web development.. that in itself is a sort of comfy zone for many in the industry... as opposed to desktop workhorse apps and those nerds... (not minimizing anyone's role)..Then theres the reality of understanding group task work on a code base.: the whole jobspace technology of being a coder.... THATs what concerns me more than tests. . I started learning Ruby and now I've moved to learning Javascript React.. it wasnt until I knew a second language that the first made more sense... apparently real devs only use 10% of the API of any language.... People are cratering about a superfluous anxiety and fact because they dont know... not knowing even half of the language is normal.

@Frederick Hall But everytime I gain something, like an accomplishment, there's this reoccuring thought of fear of them finding out that I couldn't really keep up with how skilled/smart they are. Whenever we have examinations, I often feel the obligation to really do well and even if I do, I have this thought behind my head that it was either by luck or chances. Isn't these the basic things that contribute to experiencing imposter syndrome? If not, then idk.

Thanks so much for the video. i was in love with IT from an early age and I did a computer science degree. I realise now I had imposter syndrome which really held me back in striving and pushing myself due to the fear of failure. Instead I spent a lot of time at the gym and playing rugby (Australian). When I should have been progressing my skillset by solving problems with coding. I did enough to get my degree along with talking enough about coding principals to get a job offer. But it was soon realised I was was out of my depth in the job and shouldn’t have been there. I actually did get fired and left falling out of love with IT 😢. I travelled and spent a few years doing different type of work. I now have my IT career back on track and am doing well working for a large company (starts with an ‘A’ 😉). I’m not SE but my role is still very tech. The first time I watched this video I felt bad about my lack of focus. But now I think about how I can push through imposter syndrome to get promoted now.
