Hello DevOps engineer here,
How to answer for a question "why have you transitioned from developer role into Devops ?" . I have total 3.2 yoe in java development including 1 year in Devops tools. Currently I m switching to devops engineer role and open to opportunities. As most interviewers asked why have you left java developer as it is in demand, and why selected DevOps role.

Yes, Java is all time favorite.

You must have left development due to some strong reason right ?

I was interested in automation jobs,continuous deployment where my role acts for the same as well in java. So in my career break, I have decided to become full-time devops role
