Hey there! I am back and of course, this installment is all about careers. When you become certified, be it GCP or another cloud, you may qualify for teaching position.

Well, this week, I have received a LinkedIn InMail from someone about being a GCP Trainer. It seems interested so I have replied. After going back and forth, we’ve done an impromptu Google Meet. He says that his company would sponsor me to get the Professional Cloud Architect (PCA). I have told him that I have the GCP Cloud Digital Leader, which is the fundamental GCP certification. Well, that is not the level needed for teaching currently. Needless to say, I have not gotten the position.

But Above Else Do Not LIE!

Look, all that I have to do is get my Associate Cloud Engineer and PCA and I will be right back into consideration. I still have Microsoft Cybersecurity Architect Expert certification so I can go for Microsoft Certified Trainer.

Finally,

It is not lost on me that the reason why this man has found me is because of my GCP Jumpstart and Google Tech Equity Collective blog series. Since last week , I have been publishing new Google content to keep you abreast of all of my GCP and Google professional development. Recruiters have taken noticed.
