Open source projects rely on the contributions of volunteers, but for mentees, the experience can be daunting. Many mentees may experience imposter syndrome, characterized by feelings of self-doubt, inadequacy, and the belief that one's accomplishments are not genuine. This can particularly be seen in open source, where mentees may be working alongside experienced developers and may not have the same level of knowledge or skills. However, there are strategies that can help mentees overcome imposter syndrome and develop confidence in their abilities as open source contributors. Asmit and Deepesha will share their experiences as open source mentees, discuss strategies for overcoming imposter syndrome and developing confidence as an open source mentee in this talk. They will also cover topics such as recognizing and challenging negative thought patterns, setting small and attainable goals, asking feedback from others, and remembering that everyone starts somewhere. They will highlight the significance of open source community support and how to obtain it. Attendees will have a better understanding of imposter syndrome and how to overcome it in open source by the end of this talk.
