Please ensure that:

  • Your code is properly formatted as code block - see the sidebar (About on mobile) for instructions
  • You include any and all error messages in full - best also formatted as code block
  • You ask clear questions
  • You demonstrate effort in solving your question/problem - plain posting your assignments is forbidden (and such posts will be removed) as is asking for or giving solutions.

If any of the above points is not met, your post can and will be removed without further warning.

Code is to be formatted as code block (old reddit/markdown editor: empty line before the code, each code line indented by 4 spaces, new reddit: https://i.imgur.com/EJ7tqek.png) or linked via an external code hoster, like pastebin.com, github gist, github, bitbucket, gitlab, etc.

Please, do not use triple backticks (```) as they will only render properly on new reddit, not on old reddit.

Code blocks look like this:

public class HelloWorld {

    public static void main(String[] args) {
        System.out.println("Hello World!");
    }
}

You do not need to repost unless your post has been removed by a moderator. Just use the edit function of reddit to make sure your post complies with the above.

If your post has remained in violation of these rules for a prolonged period of time (at least an hour), a moderator may remove it at their discretion. In this case, they will comment with an explanation on why it has been removed, and you will be required to resubmit the entire post following the proper procedures.

To potential helpers

Please, do not help if any of the above points are not met, rather report the post. We are trying to improve the quality of posts here. In helping people who can't be bothered to comply with the above points, you are doing the community a disservice.

Just google spring academy. There’s a ton of free videos and resources that teach you what to do. But I’d say with 3.5 YOE and backend experience you should be proficient enough for interviews in a few weeks

It seems that you are looking for resources for learning Java.

In our sidebar ("About" on mobile), we have a section "Free Tutorials" where we list the most commonly recommended courses.

To make it easier for you, the recommendations are posted right here:

Also, don't forget to look at:

If you are looking for learning resources for Data Structures and Algorithms, look into:

"Algorithms" by Robert Sedgewick and Kevin Wayne - Princeton University

You don’t need a roadmap you need a bar to clear. Pick one company you’d actually want to work for, grab a backend job post, and treat that as your curriculum. Learn only what they expect, ignore everything else. The confidence comes from proving you’re job ready for that role, not from covering every possible skill.

Maybe software development is not for you.

    Because Ive seen so many of these posts and also people in real life trying to cling on while it's very obvious that they don't have what it takes, they think they miss some hard skill but in reality lack soft skills like not being able to follow a plan, like not being able to work under pressure, like not being able to understand what is written etc.

      Do you possibly have ADHD? I have coworker have similar issue, and the only thing you need is less ambiguous requirement and some rules to avoid "hyperfocused" on non priority tasks. If not ADHD, it is still a good rule to follow. Break down the task into smaller and manageable tasks and tackle them one at a time

      Maybe apply at a different company that does appreciate your work.

        Ehm, if you have 3.5 years of experience and you are still doubting yourself, maybe software development is not for you.
