[@HumalDiscover]

I like the part where I don't have to sit through the entire course video but to practice questions per topic. That's a good advice!

[@annette-in-vegas]

I'm going to be starting my AWS journey and I found this video. You are awesome! You're very concise and give out lots of info quickly, which I appreciate! So many KZbinrs do not do this and they waste our time. Thank you for this video and I subscribed so I'll check out your other videos!

[@ranjanadissanayaka5390]

Hi, Currently I'm working on ccna but I'm gonna do a cloud when it's over. I was deciding between azure and aws. I feel aws will be the one I choose. This video is super helpful. "Be kind to yourself", that's the best piece of advice you gave me. Because I always feel like I'm under performing. Anyway, thanks for this video.

[@hemingandhi8630]

Thank you so much Lucy, I am a student here in canada and my goal is to shape my career towards Cloud Computing and Software Engineering. I always watch your videos to stay motivated and keep going. The key is be honest with your self, don't compare yourself to others, just keep smiling stay motivated and keep going one step forward every day and you'll see the progress in no time ( may be a little bit of time😅✍👍).

[@DC-795]

Your tips are wonderful, i like the clarity, honsty and humbleness of your guidance. That was really helpful for me. Thanks a lot.

I really appreciate your help. I'm getting ready to take my AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification this Monday!

[@datag1199]

Thanks for your recommendation, Lucy. I had a very similar learning path. Not traditionally trained (I didn't study Computer Sciences) BUT am self taught. Managed to become a Data Engineer and now a Solutions Architect. I appreciate you sharing your resources - I am in the middle of learning AWS policies (service account access to S3, cross account readability, roles, etc.) and it's very challenging. I am trying to find as many labs as I can to practice because it is very fast paced where I work. Subscribed :)

[@zeeshawnali4078]

@Data G how long did it take you ?

[@datag1199]

@@zeeshawnali4078 It took me a few years. I didn't know where to start, so I just starting learning SQL. Then I got into Python. Then Linux. Through my journey, just practicing tutorials and certifications, whatever I could find online. That helped me get a job. Then luckily, the organization I work for was switching over to the cloud, and I was exposed to AWS. Best of luck to you. If you're passionate about this kind of work, you can do it.

[@kidist1617]

The last bit of your video (tips and tricks) just motivated me to keep going. It’s like you read my mind. I’ve been learning AWS-SA for a little over 6 months on and off and everything you said was true. I’ve almost came close to giving up, compared myself to others, etc. This encouraged me to keep pushing. Thank you

[@TechwithLucy]

So glad it helped!! 😊 best of luck 💪

Great video thanks I just attended an AWS Summit in Anahiem California to network with employees. I have a fairly good understanding of Cloud Computing I am pretty focused on Artificial Intelligence technology. Amazon is one of the world leaders on AI few people are even aware of this. Working through the process to figure out the best pathway to work for AWS. Thanks Lucy for the great video.

[@luansaidmeiramoreira4733]

I loved the tips about Hands-On, because it's always a hardship to get market experience in a specific skill without previously experience. BUT with these kinds of Hands-On provided by Amazon seems like a great strategy to get over this gap. Thanks for the excellent video

[@legionsman7476]

Hi, Lucy. Love your videos btw. You recommend that individuals start with the cloud practitioner cert, but most people I know who work with AWS say to start with the SAA because a lot of what's in the SAA is also in the cloud practitioner exam. So, I guess taking the SAA will cover most, if not all, of the cloud concepts. Is that accurate?
