Development Tools Scrum Basics What is Agile? What Can Agile Do for Me?

How in depth should I study SCRUM?

I saw in most job postings for development it says something to the effect of "Well versed with Agile-Scrum" "Working knowledge of Scrum, Test Driven Development" So I am taking the course here to understand it. I haven't completed the videos even, so perhaps this is premature, but is this something where I should be taking notes and memorizing stages or is it more about the general concepts of modern development workflow? Will I be quizzed on this in an interview, I suppose is what I am asking.

Bear in mind this opinion is from someone who has not interviewed (from either side) for a while, but ...

Most likely, they're only going to be interested in whether you've worked in a SCRUM environment before. Once you say you have not, but that you "have studied the methods and are looking forward to having the experience", the conversation will likely move on to other topics.

Ok, thank you for the perspective.
