Will an AWS Certification Get Me A Job in 2024?

[@zora2935]

I have no IT background at all. But started a course in cloud computing this year. I have just passed the AWS cloud practitioner exam and have been asked this question too. What does this certificate empower you to do? How will it help you find a Job? Tho I doubt that this certificate will help me find a Job, it definitely gave me confidence in my ability to move further with this new goal of mine to enter into the tech world. It also motivated me a lot. And I think this confidence and motivation to learn even more and clear more certificates and go further will help me eventually find a Job next year, when my course is done. Obviously also already have some Projects that I am gonna work on, now that the Basics are settled.

Took me a minute to realize “server-cations” = “certifications”. Gotta love British English. 😃 Awesome content btw!! 🔥

If you build a project utilizing documentation and the developer guides, can you consider yourself at the very least 'capable'?

Hello. Can someone from life sciences background learn AWS and land in a job?

[@Steven_Herrmann]

I think anyone can at any age. Im about to turn 38 and beginning. Super high demand and no sign of slowing down.

[@Robertking1996]

Do you have any step by step videos of projects?

[@jytan740]

[@UnhingedGrinsHD]

Quick question after taking the AWS Cloud Practitioner should I do labs or go for the Solutions Architect?

[@techwithsoleyman]

Terraform

I have started my preparation from Azure and done az900 is it okay or should I shift to AWS

[@techwithsoleyman]

Upto you, either is fine. AWS is the biggest in the market so no one can argue with that

This journey is expensive. Wanna become a cloud engineer but the certs are pricey and your website is not free either. Please advise.

[@shaunweatherbee4701]

Coursera is a really good place to get certifications, $53 a month for the plus plan lets you take unlimited amount of courses. I'm about halfway done with my AWS cloud architect certification

[@tshepomolefe5243]

Can the cloud resume challenge be helpful in getting into cloud

[@techwithsoleyman]

Its a step to the right direction but it’s not enough

[@manchoi2163]

Wanna join your course, but too expensive 😂

[@techwithsoleyman]

Over 110 students:-)

[@JiM06SCH]

Plan is Got SAA exam next week Then do the developer in March Then projects Hopefully job ready then

[@techwithsoleyman]

Start on projects right now, and i wouldn’t do developer if you already have SAA

[@JiM06SCH]

So SAA and projects should be enough to land a role ? From a non tech background, didn’t even know how to turn a laptop on 6 months ago haha

[@sareenbedi6346]

Can you have knowledge about projects​@@JiM06SCH

[@Cricx._pic]

How many months required to complete az900 completely?

[@techwithsoleyman]

Not sure I do AWS

[@jmesweeney]

Depends on a few things... how quickly you pick things up / if you're completely new to IT or are an experienced IT engineer familiar with the Enterprise way of doing things... I would say 1-3 months if new to Enterprise cloud IT or 1 month for someone who is familiar/experienced. I've done a video on the AZ-900 myself and passed it. It's heavy on terminology/models etc not so much technical.. that's where the AZ-104 comes in 👍

[@Cricx._pic]

@@jmesweeney i am 2 year clg student and you are saying to complete basic like linux and networking like and come to aws certification right?

[@abdul-jh5xw]

Could you be more specific on how to get the job not too much time on talking and discussing the courses. who got that much time

[@Cricx._pic]

How many months required to complete az900 completely?

[@archie7369]

To complete az900 you acutually need very basic knowledge. If you have any previous experience in IT you should be able to pass an exam after 1-2 months of learning.

[@Cricx._pic]

@@archie7369 sir i am only a 2 year students so can you plz tell me where to Start to became cloud engineer?

[@archie7369]

@@Cricx._pic imo, you should start with Linux, basics of networking and scripting. After that start learning how cloud works and how to combine specific cloud services to build solutions 😌
