Greetings Richard, I am currently in the same boat as you were in the past. How did you first start getting the IT and DevOps engineering specifically. I am currently finishing a couple of Udemy courses and preparing for interviews that might come up but I have no experience and probably will not get to an interview at all. This is my struggle: Finding a company that will hire you without any work experience.
Hi. So my path was tricky in a way that I actually went back to university a bit, and from there I used my student status to get an intern job. And then I worked my way up as an intern.
But for you my suggestion is to just get a good basic knowledge of your field (whether it's frontend/backend/or other) and do shitloads of applications and interviews. Do interviews as you would do a job, don't worry if you fail them. Interviews are a very good way to practice and to learn what companies are usually asking. It may take 5-10-20-30 interviews, but you'll eventually get that first job. Be resilient! That's one of the most important things in this field!
