How do I transition from IT Support Specialist to Cloud Solutions Architect.? I am currently preparing AWS certification for cloud architect. What else do I need to do in order to achieve position in any company with no experience of cloud architect.?! Also have decent salary. On that point what can I expect in terms of work pressure and compensation.?! Please help.

This is a very open ended question. First of all the certs do help a lot yes but understanding how to look at a customer architecture and provide accurate recommendations is a must. There are great youtube videos on that. Also look into Well architected framework and what it means.

Look up videos on what CSA's do and what they look for when working with customers. The last part is you are very unlikely to get a bad salary as a CSA but not sure what your salary expectations are.

What is the YouTube series you were recommending?

Hi fishes,

The rumors about PwC KSDC changing the bonus/hike payout cycle from July to an earlier month between March and June are picking pace. If there is any senior staff, or member with credible information on this, please share your 2 cents. The suspense is killing me, and I am sure many of you echo my sentiments here.

So far, I have heard:
- March
- May
- June
- July but with salary effective from April (paid as arrears in July). Something similar for June as well.

Currently going to school for my cannabis certification but I rarely see any jobs that offer cannabis research.

I have a degree in horticulture with lab experience.

Hello Fishes,

So far I received offers from PwC India, Capgemini and Lexmark for Data Engineering.

More are in pipeline from KPMG GS, TechM, Accenture.

But one peculiar thing is happening. I have appeared for 4 Cognizant interviews but in all I have been rejected. Whereas most of my friends had easily cleared Cognizant. I am switching tech, so I am a bit concerned like whether my knowledge is too shallow😐

Is it sign of an Imposter Syndrome 🥺
