Multiple Programming Languages or Problem Solving
Dipto_Paul:
I guess not. Most of the contests are about mathematical problem solving. And most of the industry jobs don't need you to solve mathematical problems. They don't care if you can "check if a number is prime or not" or "print the value of pi after 40th decimal point". As a matter of fact they almost care about nothing as long as you can do the job.
Every interview board will ask you :
Why should we take you instead of anyone else ? What have you got that they don't ? Why are you "Special" ?
So you should prepare for a reply of this question. If you ever face a interview board that don't ask you this , it's not an interview board at all.

I won't tell that it's compulsory but it will add extra value to interview board or to your CV definitely even also for big tech company like Google, Facebook etc it's necessary.
I don't tell that online contest but I am trying to let you understand that problem solving capacity.
But if you attend online contest then you will get inspired like a game. Online contest is a game where participant from world wide attend to win the race. So you will get fun and inspiration to defeat them.
So my main point is problem solving capacity and online contest is a platform from where you can apply and check your capacity in terms of world wide programmers.
If you start contest then you will try to be first on that contest and if you can do then you will get encourage and also there is a a chance to get connected with world's other programmers and bit tech companies as well.
Finally, the main term is "Problem Solving Capacity" and "Online Contest" is to test yourself. Now you told me that if you can improve your problem solving capacity and can dear to defeat anyone in contest then:
"Won't it add any value to you or to your CV?"
In industry also you need to prove yourself by solving complex problem in a efficient way so obviously it will increase your possibility to get the job.
I think I can let you understand.
