Hello LinkedIn Community,

TLDR: Don't have idea on Linux and Devops. Do i need to learn them for the System Development Role, if yes what are key topics i need to focus on?

After clearing OA, I got my first interview round for the System Development Role 1 (L4) coming up in a few days.

The job description mentions that candidates should be proficient in DevOps and Linux, but I currently don’t have much experience in these areas. However, I’m strong in Data Structures and Algorithms (Knight and Top 3% on LeetCode).

I’m reaching out to this amazing community for insights and suggestions:

Should I invest time learning DevOps and Linux before the interview?

• If yes, what are the key topics to focus on?
• How proficient do I need to be in these areas for this role?
• Any guidance from those familiar with the process, or suggestions on how I can best prepare, would be greatly appreciated.

Thank you in advance for your support! 😊
