I see all the time that getting an AWS/GCP/Azure cert is a great way to spend bench time.

What role does a non engineer have on an AWS project? My undergrad was in IS and currently do light data engineering work and RPA, but struggling to see how I could benefit from a cloud cert when I can’t be staffed as a cloud engineer

What is the ‘light’ data engineering work that you do? Can you get AWS/Azure/GCP data engineering certs and get staffed as cloud data engineer?

How much python do you know?

Getting certifications that don’t align with your career paths makes no sense to me.

Then again after looking at consultants, I’ve realized most out of undergrad have no idea what they are doing and just following each other like robots.

Post MBA consultants who had experience beforehand tend to be more tactical

Cloud is great because there’s is a secular migration towards cloud and there are tons of both technical and non-technical jobs for folks who get it. Even when stuff is not moving to cloud, cloud native tech like kubernetes is being used on-prem increasingly. I think it’s okay to build some understanding of what cloud offers, how it works, how it’s priced, tco of various cloud strategies (vm based, k8s based, Serverless) etc

Hello fishes,

I wanted to know the interview process for the role of program manager in Microsoft. How many technical rounds happen? Are they very technical or mostly based on case studies and frameworks? It would be really helpful if someone could throw some light on this. I have recently received a call from Microsoft and would have my screening today.
