    Honestly I’m not sure where my interest came from. I think it started with the matrix movie and I thought that was cool seeing binary code at one point or another in the movie was cool. At first I thought about game design but I was never too set on it. After a while I tried looking things up on my computer on how to navigate the command prompt and do different things with the computer in the early days of RUclips. I guess since then it sort of just always stuck. I always had an affinity for troubleshooting electronics in general anyway so now I’m going to start studying for the compitia a+ very. Wish me luck.

    • @WithSandra
      @WithSandra  Год назад +8

      Hi Branden! :) I do, we get alerts around the clock from our teams since some work in EMEA/APAC regions, holidays are also busy since international teams may not celebrate the same holidays as us. However, because my team really prioritizes work life balance, we arent expected to respond on our days off, not ever team is like this and I’d directly ask what this experience is like during your interview phase to get their real input, I know similar teams in other companies would expect you to do weekly rotations of on call hours to take on those alerts. Though we also have a great SRE team that handles many alerts as well, hope this helps!
