Fire Spinning ! Your talents never cease to amaze me. How about some crazy go-pro shots from your rock climbing :) All that aside, I will say Sam is also and expert on AWS and at training.
I completely agree. Once you've got a year of AWS work under your belt then validating that with a Cert is a great idea. If you're spending time studying for a cert before you've ever had a job working on AWS, I think that time could be better spent on improving your skills.
This is such an insightful video 💡- I love the comparison of "knowing the theory" vs. "knowing how to implement/do the task." Very applicable to development from what I've seen. The time I've spent to learn a cert. usually becomes infinitely less valuable compared to the time I've spent to build real world projects. Also, I loved seeing your fire-spinning skills 🔥
You don't (normally) get paid to just know things. You get paid to do things. The fire spinning was something I've always wanted to try and this was a great excuse to do it.
The onyl ones getting the big bucks from certifications are those who sell them.
and the people selling "Pass your AWS Cert" courses
I can say my Dev associates definitely helped me get a gig. It wasn't an automatic hire for having the cert but it was a way to differentiate myself
I've found when interviewing juniors that more of them had certs than didnt.
I guess it depends where in the world you are
@@CompleteCoding thats because the ones without certs don't get interviewed

That's a great idea. I'll have to think of a climbing metaphor
do one thing go to aws headquarter and perform their😂😂 after we make money from your video😂
That would be brilliant. I wonder if I could try and get do a show for AWS?
AWS certs PLUS hands on skills is the winning combination 🤓👍
