What Do Software Engineers Actually Do?

[rohit15]

Hey guys,

I am currently a freshman CS major and am having difficulty understanding how what I’m learning (things like data structures and algorithms) apply to what would be expected of me when I get a SWE internship or job.

I can’t imagine that the job is just doing leet code style problems. I’m scared that once I get a SWE position, I won’t be able to do anything because I don’t know how to apply these skills.

I think it would really help if you guys could provide some examples of what software engineers do on a day to day basis and how the conceptual things learned in college are used to build applications.
