Confused About Entering IT Without Coding? Need Honest Advice

[sandhya rani]

Hi everyone,

I’ve been researching different IT career paths lately, and I noticed something interesting.

Many people are talking about roles like:
• Cloud Engineer
• Data Center Engineer
• VDI Engineer

But I rarely see clear guidance on how to actually start in these roles as a fresher.

So I have a few questions:

👉 Are these roles really beginner-friendly?
👉 Do companies hire freshers for Data Center / Cloud / VDI roles?
👉 What skills are actually required to get the first job?
👉 Do we need certifications or just practical knowledge?

Also, how important is hands-on experience compared to theory?

Would really appreciate insights from people working in these domains 🙏
