I think to know all of that is a bit of a stretch. This same exact list could be used for a mid or a senior level.
As a junior I would expect you to be roughly aware of some of those topics. Certainly knowing AWS, SSL, JWT, firewalls, FTP, SMTP, HTTPS3 are not necessary for a junior role.
For juniors I am much more interested in seeing how eager they're to learn, what they've built and what excites them. In fact, I've hired people who didn't knew python, linux or git working as a backend developer in a python/linux/git shop and it worked pretty well.

- poletopole 6y agoIt’s a ridiculous but earnest list. I guess it depends on the company, but these days many if not most companies expect junior developers to have senior level knowledge and pay them junior level salaries. Having said that, I didn’t know JQuery when I got hired and learned it a week or two. So yes, the most important quality is you can learn quick on the job.
