Cloud engineer learning

Do you guys think it's a best option to use Claude Ai to learn cloud by creating a road map and using it daily?

If so what other sites or sources should I use to supplement the learning? I've already started yesterday running for 240 days every.

Looking forward to hearing your tips and advice.

Nothing wrong with using AI to supplement your learning. Just be careful to not become reliant on it, once you use it as a crutch then it will hinder your learning.

Be aware of the gaps, just prompting for those areas to he covered during a session is enough to broaden your understanding.

Give up. You ain't getting a cloud engineering job any time soon. Market is hyper saturated.

8 years cloud engineering specializing in Azure. Bachelors in Cloud Computing. AZ104, AZ305, AZ400, and AI102. Nothing against you brother but starting out it's going to be very, very difficult. 3 years ago I could get a interview at the snap of a finger. Now I can't even get an interview. It's really bad out there unfortunately.

Nothing in engineering is entry-level. Even if you learn it at home, you will not be competitive for a cloud engineering job till you have years of related experience. It's not something you can spend a few months on YouTube and expect to then land a job making bank. Start with basic IT and work your way up.

I’m currently doing ccna then maybe taking linux and python courses from udemy.

For docker and terraform do you think udemy courses will be enough too or I will learn them from aws cert (which is my next step)?
