Depends on the methodology implemented. Now a days, even if you're building an entire project from the ground up, you'll likely be in an Agile team working on the color change request of a button before you start doing anything too big.

@mantekillah so how common is it for an entry level that's been on their first job for a year to be doing back to front end work. Everything from writing queries and commands. Creating tables in SSMS. Working with all kinds of tools like rabbit mq, redis, octopus deploy. And not just working on requests like that but also full features. And what level would that be considered. I ask because I have trouble knowing my value and how much I actually know.

@LFarquaad that depends on the company I guess. I started out somewhere where I was super raw and novice and in less than 6 months got a 20K bump in pay and put 3 other outsourced devs out of work. So, it's not too uncommon I guess. You just need to know how to sell your worth to you business and recruiters, without being too pompous about it. That's the trick of the whole thing. What fancy tools you know will get you in the door, it's the business worth that keeps you around and gets you paid.

Alright so I have a question, hopefully this is the right platform to ask. As an entry level software developer I have trouble knowing my value. So I was wondering what an entry level developer is expected to do on their first job straight out of college. What responsibilities do they or should they have. And what kind of work are they expected to do? For example should they be building applications from start to finish or more smaller tasked work or bug fixes. Thoughts?
