I have always found CP a boring, purposeless, and mundane activity. Nonetheless, I knew I had to practice coding questions and DSA if I were to sit for on-campus interns during the 2021 intern season. As I was already working on a research project at SHI Lab, I lightly studied a few things on Interviewbit as per the norm. Still, I was looking for paid research opportunities (my remote intern at SHI Lab being unpaid). Driven by the unwanted burden of CP, I asked Prof. Shi if we would be willing to provide me with financial assistance or recommend another professor for an intern. To my surprise, he offered me a research intern position at the recently founded Picsart AI Research, where he works as the Chief Scientist. So, I was fortunate enough to opt-out of the on-campus intern season (or rather the rat race).

TLDR: Let your research advisor know when you are in a problem. They are there to help you and ensure you focus on your research.
