    I applied at a company for an internship. I mentioned them that I am particularly interested in back end, and coding complex algorithms in general.

    They reverted back saying they have chosen my profile for UI intern instead as it matches more closely according to their company specs. Being in need of a job I continued the process. Completed take home project and Skype interview, I got the position. They offered me the position and I accepted it.

    But now I am having second thoughts about it. Whether I should join or not ? I raised this issue with them stating that I want more development like projects but less website designing. They said it will be a combination of both but focus on JS will be lot higher. The company is good, but I am having a dilemma as what to do. Should I go ? How much different is actually Back End from Front End ? Will I be choosing a wrong path ?

    @sgoel01 If you're in a desperate need for a job then go with it for now, and change when you find something more suitable. However, if you're OK with waiting (could be quick) for a new opportunity as a back-end, then do so.

    There are a lot of differences between front-end and back-end, they are two separate roles in development of a website. Anyways whatever path you take, good luck :)

    @hexagon Thanks for the reply.
    I am mostly aware about that if I take this internship, will it go in a negative side from my interests or will it boost in some way. Company is good, but my only concern is regarding whether I will be wasting my time doing meaningless things in this internship.
