What talking with a friend who transitioned from marketing into cloud (AWS) and then into security, and he spends a lot of time studying to ensure he understands all the concepts required for technical discussions.

Curious to see what the community opinions are. Feel free to share your initial background as well.

      I applied and interviewed! For context, it was a Craigslist ad, and code bootcamps did not yet exist. Openings at companies like Google had tons of competition at the time, but small tech was easy enough to get into without all the entry-level competition produced by bootcamps, and more recently, mass layoffs.
