Stop Chasing Certs Only!

Certifications can be helpful, but they won’t make you job-ready on their own. After 10 years in DevOps, I’ve seen too many people fall into the cert trap, collecting badges but still struggling to solve real problems.

In this video, I’ll break down why hands-on projects matter more, walk you through real-world DevOps scenarios (like media upload failures and cart issues in production), and show you how to build practical experience that actually prepares you for interviews and the job.

We’ll also explore how to set up your own project using Google Online Boutique: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatfor...
, where you can practice debugging, monitoring and simulating incidents — the real work of DevOps.

Stick around to the end as we'll be unpacking a lot!
