I’m trying to get a job in IT that will (hopefully) pay more than a usual 9 to 5. I’m been daily driving Linux exclusively for about 2 1/2 years now and I’m trying to improve my skills to the point that I could be considered a so-called “power user.” My question is this: will this increase my hiring chances significantly or marginally?

    To give yourself a better chance, learn things like:

    • Bash scripting
    • Docker
    • Docker Compose
    • Kubernetes
    • Oauth2 and and an authorization server like Keycloak
    • Build and deployment tools like Jenkins

    Also learn how to deploy database and web servers manually.

    It sounds like a lot but they’re things you’ll be expected to use.
