Thanks!

I’m new at AWS, thanks for your help to initiate this process

Hey Greg, thanks for your advices! I'm software engineer and I'm looking for my first certificacion, I've been working in a few aws services like lambda and ec2... I have a brief knowdlege in the basic services and I'm interested in the aws solution architect associate certificacion, do you think that is a good option to open my job opportunities in the future? I've been working in this area for 2 years, I'm really newbie. Greeting from Argentina.

I just started my journey. Im tired of all the mumbo jumbo so thank you. In 36 and really need a need a new path and in green as a leprechaun. I was thibking to get this cert, and look towards security within aws. Not sure if it pays well or theres much need, but I sure hope so, ready for a positive change aand a mental sweat not just back breaking one in life

Just had my first class on cloud computing today 😅😊, hopefully I’m going to get there sooner 😊

This is all I needed. I’m a web app pen tester. Have my Oscp Lfcs & im still current with my csaa …. You just gave me a methodology for architecting…. To talk my way into cloud consulting on my own. Identify use case. Identify End goal Match the potential services to the businesses needs… Present the Solution to the Business Problem!! Thank you so much!! The certs don’t give you this!! Appreciate you :. King!!

If a network support job posting does not get into specifics, but lists AWS as a required cert, would the cloud practitioner be enough for HR to set up an interview? Asking for your personal opinion of course, thank you for the videos.

I got the cloud practitioner right out of a cyber security boot camp. I'm now learning the CSA using the AWS skill builder. The SimuLearn program uses the actual AWS console, just like using free tier, but it gives you access to all the resources you need for the lab, without paying for the services. Once the lab is provisioned, you're locked out of anything not needed, so you can't rack up expense. It's a pretty nice sandbox environment. I'm also teaching myself Python during my downtime on lunch breaks or when nothing is going on in the warehouse I work in. Once I have the CSA, I'm thinking I might go to the AWS IQ for Experts page, and see if I can build some real world projects to reference on job applications. The skill builder has a monthly fee, but it isn't huge. IQ for Experts sounds kinda like a mercenary job board for cloud people. You can actually make money at it. I'm hoping to be into a remote cloud job in the next year or so.

Which certification do companies value most in a professional in your opinion? Solutions Professional or DevOps Professional???

thanks mate well explained

Where is the comptia a+ link ? I can’t find it in the description 8:09

This video really opened my eyes to the possibilities in tech. It's inspiring to see so many options out there.

Great tips! I recently learned about platforms like ResuBot that can help streamline the resume process. Definitely worth checking out.

For anyone struggling with their resume, I've heard Resubot can really help make it ATS-friendly. Just a thought.

I appreciate the focus on certifications. It's nice to know there are paths into tech that don't require a traditional degree.

This is super helpful for anyone looking to break into tech without a degree. It's all about skills and certifications these days.

Love the straightforward honesty

Hello, I am looking to make a career change. If I were to get the AWS Cloud Practitioner certification, would I be able to land an entry-level career

i really want to become a Solutions Architect, I have the Cloud practitioner & Solutions architect associate certifications and i am currently working one the data engineer certificate. what do you recommend for me to get my first job as an SA? is it internships or what other ways are there?

Same here. . agreed with helpdesk support job , hopefull for cloud transformation..

I just found your channel,I’m subscribed and ready to learn

I took this certification on January 21 and scored 827. I’m still waiting for someone to say it’s a mistake because I didn’t think I would pass. I currently hold 4 certifications (Practitioner, AI Practitioner, Developer, and Architect Associate), and next week I’ll be attempting the Architect Professional certification. I also have 3 years of experience as a software engineer. With this background, do you think I have a good chance of landing a job at a big tech company like Amazon/AWS?

I’m thinking about going to cis or IT which one would be better

🤷🏾im just there for the money idgaf if i get it or not.

Is there a part 2 yet? Looking forward to hearing more of ur journey

I am ready.

Hey there, love the content! Would you say completing AWS Re/Start cohort, CCP cert, and few years Help Desk would afford a good chance to land a Cloud Role ?

Hey hey hey there!! I’m up and ready to learn 😎

Can I do the solutions architect exam first using aws academy videos and practice mocks and do the labs after?

All you need is certs and hand on and world experience.

What if you had completed the aws cloud support associate professional certification. Which would you recommend to pursue?

As a guy who codes for a living. Yes my degree “was outdated” by the time I graduated. But that’s not what I took away from my degree. What I took away was. How to solve problems and tricks of the trade. You can learn those on the job and you will learn more. But then you need to beat the catch 22 of you need experience or a degree for the first 5 years.

Oops. I did that too back in 2019, and even that didn’t help.

Im looking to beef up my resume of about 20 years of support, from deaktop support to SaaS product support the past 8 years..sounds like this is what i need to check off an AWS familiarity requirement for a job.

Best of luck! I just passed mine on the 15th and already booked my SAA exam after that from the excitement 😅

Would a software engineering degree be helpful while pursuing these certifications?

Greg, this video was very helpful. I received an interview for the Cloud Support Engineer role, and I'm assuming I can use these same methods during that interview screening? Either way, it was still helpful into understanding how Amazon interviews go.👌🏾

Ok. How about 6 months then? 😂

Simple answer: it's really hard. Over twice as hard as CCP. I'm a Computer Systems Engineer with a decade of experience, studied 2 months for this, and only got 63% on the final practice exam.

Would you recommend net+ or ccna? And how become the knowledge about terraform docker ci/cd etc ?

Fundamentals are everything ❤

Thank you. I want to learn more about the AWS cloud so it seems like this is the right way to do it. I see a lot of ppl at my job with this cert.
