Startup Company Is a Blessing for Freshers

Why Working in a Startup Is a Blessing for Freshers

Working in a startup company is truly a blessing, especially for freshers. Unlike big companies where roles are limited, startups give you real responsibility, learning, and growth from day one. Every task teaches you something new, and every challenge helps you grow faster.

Recently, I experienced this personally when I was assigned a new project — a university website development. This was not just a coding task. I was involved from the very beginning — from planning to understanding client requirements, design thinking, and development flow.

This experience changed how I look at software development.


A New Responsibility: Planning a Project from Scratch

For the first time, I was asked to plan a project from the start. This included:

  • Understanding what the client wants

  • Collecting data and requirements

  • Thinking about design structure

  • Planning development steps

Honestly, this is where I struggled the most.

I had never done full project planning before. Until now, I mostly worked on assigned tasks or modules. Suddenly, I had to think like a developer, planner, and problem-solver at the same time.

At first, I felt confused and nervous. Questions kept coming to my mind:

  • What should I ask the client?

  • How much detail is enough?

  • How do I convert ideas into a proper plan?


Learning the Most Important Step of Any Project

That’s when I understood a very important truth:

The first step of any project is planning and data collection.

Without proper planning:

  • Development becomes messy

  • Changes increase

  • Time gets wasted

  • Quality suffers

Planning decides the success of a project.


How I Overcame the Struggle

Instead of giving up or staying silent, I did one important thing —
I asked for help.

I took suggestions from my team members and seniors. They supported me, guided me, and shared their own experiences. They explained:

  • What questions to ask the client

  • How to document requirements

  • How to plan features step by step

  • How to think from the user’s point of view

This teamwork made a big difference.

I realized that in a startup, support and learning go hand in hand. Seniors don’t expect you to know everything — they expect you to learn and improve.


What This Experience Taught Me

This project planning phase taught me lessons that are very important for every fresher:

  • Planning is more important than rushing into code

  • Communication with the client matters

  • Asking questions is a skill

  • Team support helps you grow faster

  • Mistakes are part of learning

I also learned that confidence does not come from knowing everything —
it comes from trying, failing, learning, and improving.


Why Startups Are Best for Learning

In startups:

  • You get exposure to real projects

  • You learn multiple skills

  • You take ownership of work

  • You grow faster than you expect

Every challenge pushes you out of your comfort zone, and that is where real growth happens.


A Message for Juniors

If you are a fresher starting your career, don’t be afraid of responsibilities. Don’t wait to feel “ready.”

But if you are in the right environment and willing to learn, every struggle will turn into experience.

Working in a startup taught me that growth doesn’t come from easy tasks —
it comes from challenges that scare you at first.


🚀 Take opportunities, ask questions, plan before you code, and trust your journey.

How I Fixed the Prisma Error

-
How I Fixed the Prisma "The table public.User does not exist" Error It was one of those moments every developer dreads—you've set up your project, written your Prisma schema, and you're ready to seed the database. You run: npm run seed …and immediately get greeted with this error: PrismaClientKnownRequestError: The table `public.User` does not exist in the current database. I stared at it for longer than I'd like to admit. The User model was clearly defined in my schema.prisma file, so why was Prisma saying the table didn't exist? After a bit of digging, I realized the issue wasn't with my code at all—it was with my understanding of how Prisma works. If you're seeing this error too, here's exactly why it happens and how to fix it. Why This Error Happens One of the biggest misconceptions for developers new to Prisma (myself included) is believing that defining a model in schema.prisma automatically creates the corresponding table in the databas...
