Realized my company is not going with GCP, at all but I want to learn and use this software on a daily basis. Any ideas?
Try to build a simple app and deploy on GCP and/or build something that takes advantage of a Cloud API. You can just go on YouTube and find a tutorial or search Medium.com. For example, you should be able to find how to build a Task List app.
Not how to get a job, but where. I’ve already done a bunch of that
Search for certified GCP partners. There’s a list. Those are places you could get a job doing GCP work. https://cloud.google.com/partners/
I did. I got recruiter calls from SADA and EPAM, both were like “oh you need a little more experience”. Like wtf that’s what I’m tryin to do haha
This x100! Partners tend to be less selective than vendors, and if you’re in consulting you’ll get bucketloads of real-world experience fast.
You have cloud architect cert?
Ya
I have the GCP Professional Cloud Architect
