    Hi Harkirat! Great video. :) So, I am just starting off in tech(I come with around 4 yrs exp in a different field). Just completed a full stack web dev bootcamp and I'm still not very confident with languages. I'm learning but also want to explore more. Would you suggest taking up projects on upwork? My idea is my learning will exponentially grow. Hoping to hear from you.

    So basically what i got from this video is :

    In order to get a top rated portfolio, show more skills and projects and charge the least possible at start.
    Got to be on the pc and email for as much time as possible.
    Have to work on multiple projects over the span of 3 months, at high prices, to eventually reach a goal of $50k.
    Sounds more hectic than a 9-5 job at a us tech firm.

    Most of the tech youtubers are cringe and just glorify the paths that they themselves haven't taken just to gain views. But your channel is very different and is a great resource for people in the tech industry as well as college students.
    Have been following your channel for a few years now and really loved your content. Please don't stop uploading videos as this channel can easily get 1M+ subs.
    Next Video Suggestion-
    Could you share your story of how you got a job (at GS) after not getting a ppo from your internship. I've always wondered how hard do the students need to prepare for on-campus jobs in IITs.

But what I request u is , along with your journey video and how do u doing remote job , do some video on how to get skilled up and what type of content should watch or simple like "road map" , because so many students are watching ur video and the students who are not studied in IIT also there , for them they don't so much knowledge or guide.
    So please make videos on how to learn and excel it .
    Thanks bro🙌
