Yeah but when it's "must have x years of experience of $CLOUD_PROVIDER" that's a whole ecosystem of tools to become proficient at. As someone who does DevOps I've learned to take any hard requirements in job descriptions with a grain of salt; companies are desperate for good DevOps talent, most suck at hiring for it, and some are aware of both of those facts and as a result are more flexible on some things than they would like you to believe.
- shepardrtc 7y agoThis has been my experience as well. Some companies are strict about requirements, such as the FAANG companies, but many other smaller companies just need someone who has a wide range of experience and can jump on new stuff without any problems. Obviously you have to know basic DevOps terminology, but after that everything is gravy.
