Week 3 and a bit of my new job as a Senior developer (although that wasn’t what was in the job spec!) and I’m still feeling pretty out of my depth, making some progress but I’m not entirely convinced that I’m cut out for the role, the imposter syndrome is very real right now.
First of all, congrats on the new job! Second of all I know this doesn't really help because you know it deep down already, but it bears repeating until you start to accept it:
Everyone. EVERYONE around you also feels like an impostor to some extent. It does get better, but it never really goes away. Totally normal, and I'm sure you'll do great.
