  1. DevOps is a pretty wide domain and I would suggest you to first get a broad understanding of the domain and then strengthen your understanding about Networking and OS (Linux). For starting you can take a course for Cloud (AWS) by Stephen Maarek on Udemy. And you will find plenty of such courses there. The only way to get real world experience is to create some projects on your own and show to the company that you can work your way around. Don't fall in the tutorial hell.
  2. The market might look bad but there are a lot of companies hiring good Devs. I myself switched in this market with a great hike of 40+%. So don't fall too much for the media news. Small startups and mid scale companies are still hiring.

The most important piece of advice: Be passionate and learn everything you can from anywhere you can. Money will follow automatically. You can't survive in Software long if you are not good at what you do. Good Luck.
