What is expected of new grad software engineers? I only know what was taught in my coursework
Not much. I write 20 lines of Java a day and still get "excellent" on my performance reviews and make six figures. I am a diversity hire though.

To be quite honest your technical skills may be really sharp. Although you were taught things like Agile and SCRUM processes in school, once you get to a workplace every company sort of tweaks it a bit for their organization/department/project. Learning to cope with this from project to project will definitely take some time, at first you'll be a big baby afraid to commit anything. Eventually you'll gain some confidence and productivity will go up.

Literally spent the first 6 months out of school at $80k salary updating text on a few old HTML websites that spanned several hundred pages each. It was hilarious, maybe 2 minutes of editing code and 1 hour of back-and-forth with bitchy HR females trying to decide what they want written. Then another 7 hours of shitposting and browsing the net until it was time to leave.
I was a glorified copy-paster, not responsible for content at all.
Now I am sitting at $96k/year and pretty much audit work done by pajeets. It's not that bad, still spend most of the day shitposting.
