Sometimes cloud certifications matter to employers, and sometimes they don’t. In this episode, let’s get into some arguments for and against certifications, along with how the way you think about cloud certifications should change throughout the duration of your career. Today’s discussion involves: - The incentive for employers to protect their partnership status with cloud providers. - What can happen when two candidates are very similar but have different amounts of certifications. - Why recruiters and hiring managers often being non-technical places an emphasis on the number of certifications. - The limit of how far certifications can get you when you’re starting your career. - Why new people in this space should be sure to focus on gaining hands-on experience. - What technical interviews are designed to achieve. - The importance of acquiring skills that cannot be obtained from certifications alone. - Why it’s best to focus on things like cloud frameworks when you want to transition into a senior role. 🗞️ Get a FREE guide on 3 Simple Steps To First Cloud Job: https://app.cloudcareermentor.com/podcast-3-simple-steps-opt-in 💻 Access high quality cloud projects: www.cloudcareermentor.com 🎙️ Stream our podcast: podcasters.spotify.com/pod/show/cloudcareermentor Connect with me on social media 📲 LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/company/cloud-career-mentor 🐦 Twitter: twitter.com/thecloudmentor AWS, cloud, solution architect, career, job, azure
