Is it Worth Transitioning to DevOps After Being Out of Tech for a Year?
Asked by

I'm a former front-end developer who has been away from the tech scene for over a year now. I'm curious about the job market for DevOps roles. Should I invest a few months to learn the fundamentals and pursue a position in this field, or are these jobs hard to come by?

Honestly, it's not the best time for junior roles in tech, including DevOps. If you're considering this path, you may face stiff competition and limited openings.
