How'd you guys get your start at AWS? I'm almost a year at my current org doing some light cloud and software support, but want to do more AWS. Have the Cloud Practitioner and want to get the SAA ones and probably SysOps.

Curious if Forrest Brazeal’s cloud resume challenge holds any weight in the industry? I’m almost done with it and have learned quite a bit with various services but was skeptical if it actually helps people during their job hunts.

If I’m interviewing a junior and they can explain what they built and why they used specific services I’d treat it the same as hands on professional experience.

I don’t think it’s really “a thing” like a certification or something.

Part of the challenge is to actually go out and get a cert. I did the CCP as part of my degree and the SAA on my own. I'm just trying to get some experience that I can show off and talk about for interviews or at least some sort of leg up for job searches.
