    Great content. Something I want to add on the 05:55 topic: you did not necessarily need to improve your weak points, you sure need to identify them, but you can simply manage them in the ways like risk management, like the terms of reduce, avoid or accept your weaknesses.

Do you have any suggestions how do I switch my career? As interview they ask questions from past experience which I don’t have it.

    Hi Lucy, not sure if you review new comments/questions from past videos but I thought this is the right place to ask due to the title:
    What level of networking skills is required for a Solutions Architect Associate in terms of an equivalent networking certificate? Say ccna or ccnp? I'd like to do as many relevant problems as possible to compensate for lack of experience as I apply for jobs after I get the SAA CO3 cert

    Thanks Lucy. I just passed my aws cloud practitioner certification and currently studying for Associate Solutions Architect certification. AWS is my dream job even though I have a mild stutter which I know a big challenge knowing it requires a good communication skills to land on that job. Is there any chance for us stutters for that role? I am in the middle focusing whether I should focus on devops or sol arch. BTW, I am a frontend developer currently expanding skillsets.
