A common question I often get at the moment from my fellow community members, not just from the perspective of developing a career but also to get exposure, is whether people should pursue opportunities in Developer Relations (aka DevRel) or not.If this is a question you have asked yourself (or someone else), I'll try and provide insights from the last ten months I have spent as a DevRel professional.Disclaimer: Many of the opinions I share in this issue are aimed at Indian engineering students and younger professionals aspiring to become Developer Advocates or DevRel Engineers, as that's the group from whom I receive this question the most. If you don't belong to either group (for example, if you're looking to transition to DevRel Management or are an experienced professional in the space), take my opinions with a pinch of salt.
