How should I revise DevOps topics effectively in 2–3 days before an interview?

Hi everyone,

I am currently preparing for DevOps Engineer interviews and often get only 2–3 days between interview rounds. Due to limited time, I find it difficult to revise all important topics effectively.

I would really appreciate your guidance on:

  • How to quickly revise key DevOps topics (AWS, Kubernetes, Linux, Networking, CI/CD)
  • Best strategy to revise concepts vs hands-on practice in a short time
  • How to prepare for troubleshooting and scenario-based questions
  • Any tips for creating quick revision notes or cheat sheets

If you have any proven strategy or personal experience, please share — it would be very helpful.

Thanks in advance!

DevOps Interview Prep in 2-3 Days :rocket:

  1. Revise smart — On KodeKloud, watch videos at 1.5x speed and focus only on topic summaries and quizzes instead of full lectures.
  2. Hands-on first — Spend 70% time on KodeKloud Labs and KodeKloud Engineer tasks as they mirror real interview scenarios exactly.
  3. Scenario prep — Practice Game of Pods, Kubernetes Challenges, and Linux Challenges on KodeKloud to master troubleshooting questions confidently.
  4. Mock exams — Attempt CKA, LFCS, and Docker mock exams on KodeKloud to build speed, identify weak areas, and simulate real interview pressure.
  5. Cheat sheets — Make one-page notes for Linux commands, Kubernetes kubectl commands, CI/CD pipeline structure, and AWS services for last-minute revision.
