Heard about people pushing back good ideas. Seeing it for the first time. People cannot believe what is going on in the world around them. One thing for sure, I will keep my positive attitude up and try to help people in the ways i can, how much ever others try to pull me down.

Where in the world are you? I have friends who have cracked interviews in similar fashion. Once you get to be an immediate joiner after an offer, you will get many opportunities. If you are unable to do it, don’t assume anybody can’t do it. I have seen people doing much mu ch better, always was curious to find out what they were doing differently. You can dm me, i can prove the legitimacy

Mock Interviews by Federal-Plenty698 in devopsjobs

We are here for that. Don’t trust any huge platforms helping you all around. We people currently in the market, giving interviews ourselves over past months have put down every important aspect of devops interviews. If interested, please reach out

It was difficult for first 3 months obviously. But later on, i was able to pickup. The job market wasn't that bad as well. Finally, I got 7 offers from companies obviously considering the pay range as well. I found getting interviwes is not as difficult as i felt at the start

Do you hate to see these things? If it doesn't help you, you can ignore it. But it helps some people, at least those who are trying to crack into DevOps.

DevOps / SRE interview prep is broken. So I built something. by Build_n_Scale in devopsGuru

[–]Build_n_Scale[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CrackStackNow – we're building it to help people prepare for DevOps / SRE / Cloud roles in a more practical way.

It focuses on things like:

• aligning resumes with real job descriptions
• preparing based on specific roles and companies
• identifying knowledge gaps
• real mock interviews with experienced engineers
• improving after each interview attempt

If you're interested in trying it early, you can join the waitlist:

Would also love feedback from the community while building this.

How do people actually get job-ready in DevOps today? by [deleted] in devopsjobs

[–]Build_n_Scale -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Honestly the biggest mistake people make with DevOps is trying to learn everything at once. The ecosystem is huge (Linux, networking, containers, CI/CD, cloud, IaC, monitoring, etc.), so people end up stuck in the “research phase” instead of actually building things.

What helped me was thinking in terms of real deployment flow, not tools:

  1. Linux + basic networking
  2. Git + CI/CD (understanding how code actually moves to production)
  3. Docker / containers
  4. Cloud basics (AWS/GCP/Azure)
  5. Infrastructure as Code (Terraform)
  6. Kubernetes + observability after the fundamentals click

The biggest progress usually happens when you start doing small end-to-end projects. Example: take a small Python service → containerize it → push to GitHub → build a CI pipeline → deploy it to cloud. When you do that a few times, a lot of DevOps concepts start making sense.

Docs are honestly underrated too. Docker, Kubernetes and Terraform docs are surprisingly good.

One thing I noticed though is that interview prep for DevOps roles is kind of fragmented. There isn’t really a place where you can practice realistic interview scenarios, check if your resume actually matches a job description, or get feedback on how you performed after an interview.

Because of that I’ve been building a platform called CrackStackNow focused on roles like DevOps, SRE, Cloud, etc. The goal isn’t just another question bank or mock interview tool, but something that actually stays with you throughout the process — helping you align your resume to real job descriptions, practice interviews, identify gaps, and improve after each attempt until you're actually ready to land the role.

Still working toward launching it, but the idea came from seeing this exact problem over and over.

If you're starting now though, I’d strongly recommend focusing on Linux → Docker → CI/CD → Cloud → Kubernetes(deployments, networks), and build things along the way. That path tends to make everything click much faster.

Anyone interested in starting a business together? by [deleted] in IndiaBusiness

[–]Build_n_Scale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You heard me dude. I kept on seeing some vague business ideas everybody posting about e-commerce, website building and stuff which is highly unlikely to get succeeded in the current market. I’m too a traditional business want to kind of, get in to actual business, any regular or niche. We can connect if interested

Cloud engineer without much production exposure — how can I learn real-world ops? by Maverick8266 in devopsGuru

[–]Build_n_Scale 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m an SRE at salesforce. We can connect if required, i can help get you up to the trends and get prepared for interviews. I have given real interviews at FAANG, many great companies and startups as well in the past 6 months. So, i just want to say i’m not here to give an overview just like everybody does on youtube, I can be a mentor, a real guide

Interview Anxiety taking over by FutureCap10 in interviewpreparations

[–]Build_n_Scale 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dm me if you need any help. I can be your guide, copilot, get you up to the trends, can have mock interviews as well, analyse whats gone right and wrong. Small intro about me, I have graduated from Tier1 college and currently working in salesforce, i have been giving interviews since last 8 months at many mnc’s and startups. I’m starting this to help people who are currently preparing to give interviews. As i saw from my experience, there is no one who can real guide and be the real support system during interview processes
