Quora’s Most Asked: Can a fresher get
a DevOps job in India?
Digital transformation of industries has raised the demand for candidates with trending skills like
SMAC (Social, Mobile, Analytics, and Cloud) and since these technologies are not traditional,
quick learners who gain the domain expertise in these technologies are paving their ways to a
bright IT career. So if someone is skilled enough, modern IT jobs are always within reach of
freshers, and DevOps is no exception to this. We’ll discuss how a fresher can get a job in
DevOps as soon as they leave their campuses, but before that:
What is DevOps?
DevOps is the combination of cultural fundamentals, process, and the use of tools to increases an
organization’s ability to provide continuous delivery of applications and services to their end
users at a higher frequency. The terms “Dev” and “Ops” refers to replacing siloed Development
and Operations as separate developmental phases to create synchronous multidisciplinary teams
that now work together with shared and efficient practices and tools. It has replaced the
traditional software development and infrastructure management processes allowing
organizations to have reduced development times, faster time to market, and increased product
quality. Now the million dollar question:
Can a fresher get a DevOps job in India? – Quora
The wide disconnect between education and acquiring skills among engineering graduates has
left a very few of them fit for employment. So mere formal educational qualification as a fresher
is not enough for aspirants to get a DevOps job today. As a DevOps professional need to
understand the aspects of both development and operations involved, they need to have the
relevant skills which are allied to the dynamics of DevOps and the changing job descriptions. In
addition to this, candidates with high desire and ability to quickly “learn-unlearn-relearn” and
adapt their skill set are more likely to stay employed in such roles.
How to get a DevOps job as a fresher?
Start preparing as early as in the 3rd semester of Engineering
Aspirants looking to start a career as a DevOps professional need realise the skill set required for
the job. The best way forward is to let your prospective employers know that you own the right
skills in the form of your own projects and knowledge. Aspirants need to be prepared with
hands-on knowledge of cutting-edge services like AWS, VMware, Google Cloud Platform, etc.
and show their keenness about other aspects of DevOps like operations and management. Cloud
labs available as a part of blended or online learning programs are the best way to learn DevOps

as these labs don’t require students to install any complex software on their computers and can
be accessed using simplest of internet browsers.
To ensure a constant effort towards learning DevOps along with their regular classes, aspirants
can also join Integrated Learning Programs that run parallel to their university curriculum and
provide them with early access to projects and expert mentors for proper guidance. These
programs are meant to prepare the learner to successfully carry out tasks and effective workplace
relationships.
Learn the full stack
Learning either a programming language or infrastructure management is not sufficient to be a
successful DevOps professional. He/she need to go through formal training of all the aspects of
DevOps and have enough business aculum to beat the peers in the race.
A full stack web developer is a person who can develop both client and server software. In
addition to mastering HTML and CSS, he/she also knows how to program a browser using
JavaScript, jQuery, Angular, or Vue; program a server using PHP, ASP, Python, or Node; and
program a database using SQL, SQLite, or MongoDB
Since learning all of these separately can be overwhelming and time-consuming, full stack
programs help participants learn and apply all necessary skills in the form of real-life projects.
Get hands-on experience in Software development and infrastructure management
Since companies require professionals to solve real-life problems and not to engage in theoretical
projections of how engineering issues can be resolved engineering students need to utilize their
time in the universities to get their hands dirty and work on projects to solve operational
problems. They also need to be able to demonstrate the evidence of leadership skills and high
emotional quotient with real-life examples they were apart of during the interviews.
Bottomline
Students need to be prepared to show what they learned and their knowledge and confidence are
definitely going to work during their interviews. They need to brush up and polish their skill set
and present themselves with great poise and confidence. As the lack of certain qualities among
probable and existing employees has become a strategic concern for recruiters, students also

need to apply the process of life-long learning to remain employed. To conclude and answer the
question, Yes, a fresher in India can get a DevOps job, but it comes at a cost we call hard work.
