We are looking for real world GNU/Linux stories!

Many people would like to read your FLOSS story on LinuxCareer.com
Looking to see if the skills you possess are the ones most in demand? Are there areas within your overall skill set that need to be addressed to increase your marketability? We have combined the categories within our skills profiles to showcase what the ultimate DevOps engineer would look like based on corporate demand. Not only can you see the skill in each category that is currently at the top of the mountain, but also the ones realizing the greatest percentage growth. Essentially, one can view the incumbent and the challengers on its heels. Therefore, the notion of the ultimate DevOps engineer is fluid, and a certain skill can change on a quarter by quarter basis.

On a side note, there are a couple of categories that were deemed difficult to narrow. In this case, there were two of them, security and storage. We felt it best to stick with broad skills, such as SSL for security or SAN for storage. Also, within the networking section, it was determined to stick with application protocols, such as DNS. The remaining categories provided a much easier means to narrow the field to an exact skill. As always, we are open to feedback. Thus, if there is a better way to get more specific results for security or storage, we are all ears.
