I used Stephan Maarek for the CCP. He was awesome. For the SAA I used Cantrill’s course and for the DA I’ll be using Cantrill’s again. I love tutorials dojo. Thanks for the video, subscribed!

I find aws skillbuilder great training. I ran through the associate architect on it. 2nd tutorial dojo

Hey Trevor. What concerns me with AWS training is, I hear a lot of people talk about how hard they've worked to get AWS cert but I never hear anyone say they got a dream job with that AWS cert. I know AWS is hot but are there truly jobs out there for AWS sysops?

How would you recommend studying for the sysops exam after recently passing the architect associates exam?

[KingdomCretive]

i passed this exam and still never got hired any advice?

[mikemcgallicher]

Thanks for the content! I've been an infra guy for a long time, but I'm pretty new to AWS. Looking at the domains for the exam, they seem to be standard infra topics. Do you find that on prem experience translates at all? I'm curious if my experience on prem gives me an advantage, or if the opposite is true, and I'll have to unlearn alot.

I have experience in networking on cisco tac and had ccna ccnp. Already got SAA. should I move to advanced networking course now or should I do sysops first? Thanks

[KingdomCretive]

trev is this industry way oversaturated?i believe so do u?

[staynjohnson]

aws is yet to bring back the exam labs in sysops cert, So is it still something we should go for, or just take the architect pro instead?

[Dillon]

I noticed in Stephane's coarse he mentioned to maybe have the other associate levels first. I'm about to take the CCP and wanted to move to SysOps afterwards but don't want it to be too big of a jump. What's your opinion? For some context I've been working in a Service Desk environment for 2 years but new to cloud.

[KingdomCretive]

i value your advice and would love your opinion why im not getting hired? its been taking a toll on me and im under massive stress considering i am unemployed with a family

[chatterchannel]

Can you please suggest for mysql DBA cert

[waltervannoy]

When doing the labs, are there questions pertaining to using the aws cli??

[FlimFlamBougelets]

I just stumbled upon your channel. Great information Trevor! I just passed the developer exam and thinking of continuing to sysops now. Did you feel when you took the exam the you had adequate time for the multi-choice and the 3 labs?

[markolivancic]

Hey Trevor! I am preparing for my SysOps cert (which would be my first AWS Cert). I have been in IT for a bit over 5 years working on operations roles, but kinda fresh to cloud. Do you think I should go through the SAA course content + the SysOps one (referring to Stephane Maarek's courses), or go straight to the SysOps one? Also I am curious about your thoughts on ACG course for both SAA and SysOps in the terms of quality and coverage? Cheers!

[MultiScotty]

I am writing this Sunday. Have all the resources mentioned. Just worried about the labs
