    From the link: "Microsoft will accept applications for this role until August 29, 2024." If you're finding the video now, it will be too late to get in the January cohort, as applications closed three days after the video was originally posted. Anyone interested should focus on preparing for the next Leap cohort by creating a solid portfolio showcasing original work that isn't full of bootcamp/class project work, perhaps do some open source contributions, etc., and start doing coding interviewing prep. If selected, you'll still have to do a standard entry level coding interview to enter the program.

    I wish i made more for working on Linux servers, but sadly, barely making 75k. About to upgrade our Zimbra servers, OS first though (which is Debian 10 to Debian 12) should be pretty easy. From what ive learned the past 10+ years working in IT, both the private and public sector, is if you want a 6 figure salary, you need a security clearance. Funny thing is, when I was going to get mine, i failed because i had student loans LOLOLOL im laughing cynically at the fact that, i went to school to get these kinds of jobs, but then school loans held me back from getting the tools i needed to land the job. What a world we live in huh. Am i still bitter because i had the job for a year and then had to apply for the clearance after a year just to be denied. Personally, It was the best job i ever had and i loved the people, it honestly damaged me mentally because i went from a problem solving wizard to questioning my very exisistance.

    I have Linux+, and I'm working on RHCSA right now. That is leading me to studying Bash scripting, because basically everything you do on the RHCSA can be done using Bash scripts. Adding SysOps is smart too. I have AWS Developer and AWS Solutions Architect, the SysOps is next. I also have CCNA. You can't just know the servers, you need to know the network that the servers are a part of too. My opinion about programs like this is that its fine to try to use, but be careful. Have at least 6 months of living expenses saved in addition to program fees. Because companies are ruthless and will throw you out the door if you don't get up to speed immediately. You might get lucky and wind up somewhere where the people are reasonable about the learning curve, but if you don't you should be prepared for the worse. These companies really want rockstars without investing in their people whatsoever!

    I think tech is a great career, otherwise I wouldn't have been in it for almost 20 years. With that said, I think the lifestyle that accompanies tech is a bit toxic. Late/long hours, weekends/on-call, production "support", sitting all day leads to back and neck issues, and more. I moved from support to admin to devops to cloud, and I am happy where I am, but even with all that movement and progress and working fully remote... I somedays wish I just became an electrician and moved around more and had more autonomy. That would lead to a longer life, healthier body and healthier mind, just my 2 cents. Some advice I generally give young people is: 1 - keep growing and learning otherwise you will get replaced. 2 - stand up every 45mins for 5mins, 3 - do not work on a "on-call" or "weekend support" schedule, 4 - when they stop valuing you or you get bored and aren't learning, start applying.
