  • @gerardovillanuevaortiz3280

    Gwyneth thanks for all the information you give. I have a question. When looking for a job as cloud support, most of companies want at least 1 year of experience. Will it count if I have 1 year using AWS and Azure like in projects made by myself but not working with it like in a job. I have 3 years of experience as a network engineer but i wanna get into cloud.

    Your videos have been so valuable to my journey in this last year. I got my GCP cloud architect cert and was having a difficult time knowing how to move forward. One question: I know you try to keep your content hybrid neutral as much as you can and I appreciate that, but some of the Azure stuff just doesn't translate and I get lost in following along. Do you know of any content creators that focus mainly on GCP?
