I'm not sure this is true. Most of the shops I've been in don't care about whether you know this or that language or library. You're expected to learn that as you need to. Most of what I've seen cut people from interview loops is missing fundamentals.
- Shadowjack 7y agoFrom a programming perspective, possibly. As an Ops Engineer, I'm having a hard time shifting jobs. Where I work now, it's heavily siloed so I can't shift into a CI/CD team because it's a different team or the Product Engineering team because they don't do Unix administration, automation, or Kubernetes (other than the deployment aspect). I focus on automation with shell scripts and Ansible plus Tower to get Infrastructure as Code going. I took on the Kubernetes role, and am the single point of failure for the 24 clusters I manage. And now management is asking what support contracts we have for Kubernetes (me, it's just me and asking questions in various places on the 'net). Add in that I'm taking courses for the CI/CD toolset and implementing them on my homelab. But I still can't get a bite on shifting jobs.
