I'm unsure of my path as I have involved in sde, data engineering and machine learning. Being a consultant, I have filled in all three shoes at different times; although, havent reached to expert level in any. Now, when I'm applying for new roles, I'm uncertain to type of position ill be qualified for.

Have you felt lost in path selection for career like I'm now?

That is the pro and con of consulting. You get to experience a wide variety of work in a short span, yet will rarely focus on any single path deeply enough to forge a career put of it.
Ask yourself, what made you happiest? What challenged you in a way that made you excited for work?

All my six-figure salary consultant friends are ranting about how poor they feel right now because their IRAs/portfolios are down. Think the people in this industry need to take time to volunteer or engage with some tougher parts of town and understand that by virtue of even having investment accounts, that they’re more financially safe than at least 50% of America. Sad to see
