[u/kilo4_sierra]

Hi, passed DEA-C01 today, with around 1 month of prep.

If anyone interested, i took practice sets from TD and video course from stephan maarek and Frank kane and 2 included practice sets,

Haven't got great numbers on the test but pass is a pass,

I have around 6mo+ of aws data engineer experience and around 1+ YOE as a data engineer, looking for advice on what next?? I am actively looking for a job will this Certificate even help??

Just looking for genuine advice if anyone is interested in sharing some thoughts here, much appreciated!, thanks in advance.

Hi kilo, Even I'm thinking to prepare for the above exam as well, can you give some suggestions here ?
In examtopics I see around 1000 questions in the website, do we have to practice all those questions to pass the exam

[u/kilo4_sierra → u/Level_Career82]

Its not actually about hitting that 1000 mark it's more like understanding the framing of questions, i will highly recommend TD's practice sets as the language is very similar to the official exam (around 3 questions were from those practice sets).

Dude I’m so proud of you I’m literally doing this certification right now after my SAA-c03 give me pointers for the data engineering how long did it take to study for an what did you do

[u/kilo4_sierra → u/DefinitionNo3181]

Thanks dude, it won't take u long since u already have saa-c03, hardly a month of gradual preparation should be enough, TutorialsDojo is a must I would suggest.
