how hard would a transition to cloud work be? I currently work primarily in more of a business analyst role (python, SQL, and tableau/power BI) and want to work on more hard skills, but am afraid I won’t be technical enough

Similar position from a knowledge perspective. My client engagement leadership got us an AWS bootcamp and I passed the Solutions Architect Associate shortly after. From a skills perspective, the hardest thing is just the networking concepts. Everything else is pretty straight forward. You'll use python to automate cloud tasks and to essentially backup your architecture in a script that can be run if needed to rebuild everything.

So I would say if you've got a good understanding of programming and think you can learn just enough networking, you should be good to go. Then it's just a matter of networking onto a project.

That’s encouraging, fortunately I worked in an IT help desk role for 5 years and have quite a bit network admin experience. Hope that helps! I appreciate your response.

Cloud apps/platform as a concept aren't anything crazy. For minimal usability competency, it's mostly just a couple of new GUIs to learn. Wrap your existing inputs and outputs up for whatever API, and you're off to the races. In some cases, don't even have to do that--just upload your queries or scripts and off you go. You'll be fine. Just don't forget to shut down whatever you're getting billed for after you're done.

GCA Questions Help

Hi everyone!
I've had 2 rounds of interviews at Google (UK) for a non-tech role in Platforms & Ecosystems (L4/L5). Recruiter told me that I've been selected for the final rounds (GCA + Leadership Interview). From his feedback, one thing they wanted me to improve on was the GCA Questions. Would anyone have any tips on how to prepare for these? I've checked some of Jeff Sipe videos online but would appreciate any support! I find GCA quite stressful...
Thx
Thanks in advance!

I've become really jaded about consulting. I find all so often you need to tell the client what they want to hear to keep their business and I feel like so much of the what I recommend doesn't actually get implemented. I'm looking to make a career switch so I can both create and execute on my strategies. A product management path seems very promising for this.

Does anyone who switched from consulting to product management have any recommendations of h helpful PM books, courses, or programs?
