I have changed direction once more to re-enter the job market, at the expense of upskilling

I was studyine SQL for a while + Ansible. Now I have decided to

1. showcase my python projects

2. Do the DVA-CO2 AWS Developer associate

3. Focus on AWS projects

The rest of the plan will fall into place as I go along

The workplace is calling

PROJECTS PROJECTS and more PROJECTS rather than qualifications per se

job search: - a very large global corporate contacted me on Friday with a suggested interview date of Tuesday the 12th or Thursday 14th September 2023. Even though my priority is to get back into work, my priority for how I use my time over the weekend and Monday mean that I have to put the python portfolio build project on hold, as well as the RHCE study. I also did a brush up on my AWScloud solutions arctect associate and started on the AWS cloud developer associate.

Saturday 9th September 2023


Today was spend in preparation for the large corporate. I did do some work on my python portfolio build projct but only about 2 hours.
