I wrote a bot that scraped and analysed over 2,000 job adverts, and here's what you need to know about the data.

▶ A PRACTICAL START WITH CLOUD / AWS
I highly recommend Stephen Mareeks AWS courses. If you’re a total beginner I recommend the “Certified Cloud Practitioner” otherwise the “Associate Developer”. If you plan to take the exam, I also highly recommend Jon Bonso’s practice exams:
geni.us/bonso-practice-exams
geni.us/stephane-mareek-ccp
geni.us/stephane-mareek-dev
Why I recommend Stephane and Jon’s courses:

▶ WRITE A CLOUD RESUME THAT LANDS YOU THE JOB
There is no better book which explain Tech Hiring and how to write a resume that passes tech screening processes than “The Tech Resume: Inside out”. I am referenced in the book and my review (Twitter) is on the homepage. It’s free if you’re unemployed and is priced based on your location.
geni.us/techresumeinsideout
▶ BUILD YOUR RESUME (AS A PROJECT) USING CLOUD TECHNOLOGY
The “Cloud Resume Challenge” is a 12 step. I love the challenge, I’m an active member of the Discord, and I have a whole playlist on KZfaq to help you complete the challenge. There is a book (it’s optional), but I strongly recommend it. Get the “Cloud Resume Challenge” book:
geni.us/cloudresumechallenge

Yeah, I stumbled into this Tweet also a few days after! Unpopular tech opinion: I think more people should learn networking before trying to jump straight into cybersecurity. twitter.com/Alexxussh/status/1559955274282291201?s=20&t=XzV8JycJjnJq2RIXbSiWJA

@Vladimir_Mohammed_Putin_JR 8 ай бұрын

The best to learn networking once you have studied or taken a cert as CCNA is to get a job maybe in a TAC which will boost your nest step way more than just studying networking.

Cool video. Surprised SRE did not come up which tends to have a bias more towards Observability and incidence response (including on-call). Would have been interesting to see those skills comparison with SRE mixed in.

@openupthecloud Жыл бұрын

Yeah, I think this Tweet covers that: ⬆ Unsurprising to see monitoring tools like Grafana going up +25%, and distributed systems going up (+17%) ⬆ Interestingly more "core" / fundamental skills go up: containers +21%, Docker +25%, networking +33% and Linux +23% are all up. twitter.com/openupthecloud/status/1546750409011859456

Tanks, really interesting. at 13 minutes from my experience, I would not advise to learn Salt or Chef, I have not seen those tech used for years specially in a cloud environment. For IAC it's generally like you said Terraform and Ansible (For automation where you dont want/need to keep a state) Cloud formation (in house AWS) and Azure Resource Manager (ARM, Azure in house). GCP push on Terraform instead of creating a proprietary solution. Thanks
