Hey @fidanoski ! Welcome to Topcoder.
Being able to succeed in Topcoder challenges is sure to be of interest for potential employers!

Gaining high placements in a Topcoder challenge will mean that you:

• Are able to work under strict timelines
• Are able to work under pressure
• Are able to work in an international environment
• Are technically skilled enough to implement the required specification / solve the required problem
• Are technically skilled enough to do ^ the above against competition and succeed

So, the best way to build your Topcoder profile is to compete, learn and earn! Feel free to familiarize yourself with the educational material available on Thrive ( https://www.topcoder.com/thrive/ ) and with all the different kinds of competitions available at Topcoder ( https://www.topcoder.com/thrive/articles/all-about-topcoder-challenges-tasks-and-gig-work-opportunities )
