Yes, both experienced and freshers can apply for the job of Azure Architect. You must be familiar with Azure and its services.

This job role doesn't necessarily require experienced professionals. All you need is strong knowledge on Azure and its services.

As an architect? Well i don't think any company is stupid enough to hire a fresher for architect role cause it is a very senior and imp role. Besides, an Architect has a huge role in establishing the cloud base for the company. May i know ur impression of what they do?

Correct me if i'm wrong plz.

Hello @Vardhan, true that it is a very important role. The hiring process for a fresher is different then that of a experienced. Here when there is a fresher interviewed for this post they need to go through a very rigorous set of interviews because they are new to this and they will be responsible for something very important. Comapnies like Microsoft hire freshers for this job, freshers who have a very crisp and sharp knowledge on Azure and its services gets hired. Hope, I made my point clear. Thank you. The ratio is also 70 - 30 for hiring of experience to fresher.

Yes, a fresher can also apply for the job of Azure Architect but he/she should have relevant certification for this. I have seen few freshers hired for this job in my organization itself. They had few projects related to Azure and had the certification. So yes both experienced and fresher can apply for the job.

All the best.

Hey Sradha, if you have great knowledge of Azure and have sound understanding of all the aspects and models of Azure Architecture, then you can apply for the job, irrespective whether you are a fresher or an experienced professional. Although, if you are a fresher, you might face multiple rounds of interviews with different levels of difficulty as the companies are very peculiar about hiring a Cloud Architect that too if they are freshers.
