I moved to the US for a new job and the imposter syndrome is like 1000% . I can’t even participate in conversation as I don’t really have any context to their discussions eg I don’t really vacation or surf/ski watch that yoda movie everyone else seems to have watched 😅 etc lol. (From a “3rd world” country)

This is quite normal but don’t let it get to you. Focus on your work and keep telling yourself, “I might not be the smartest but I’ll strive to be the grittiest”

Had it bad when I first started work, you just need to realize that you have strengths, find work that tailors to your strengths and ride it out until you gain confidence to try something new

How important is a master's degree for your career? Can you have longevity and thrive in the tech world with just a bachelor's? Asking this because I've been preparing for CAT this year and I feel like my preparation is only good enough to get me around 90-95 %ile which is not enough to get a call from the top IIMs. I've been preparing alongside my job and its been a tough 3 months. Should I spend another year preparing and appear for CAT 2023 or should I give up and prepare for interviews?
