First take AZ-900, DP-900 and PL-900 from Microsoft Virtual Trainings days. If you attend the event you get a free voucher for these exams.

They are at fundamental level. After that if you like DP-900 more then study for DP-100 or if you like PL-900 more then study for PL-100.

Good luck

In general, if you are wondering about the role-based exam numbers, here's a quick summary:

900 series: basics/fundamentals
100 series: administrators
200 series: developers
300 series: architects
400 series: devops
500 series: security
700 series: speciality exams

Remember the fact that when you learn and practice cloud platforms, and then you apply for a job, they don't look at just your cloud knowledge (this is imperative), but they want to "see" your cloud architectural/design/dev wisdom (and how do you apply and build for various scenarios and use cases). This can only be the result of practical application of these cloud technologies in an enterprise setting.

Learning and working on any one cloud platform should automatically make you apply, design and architect equivalent technologies/services in another cloud platform.
Learn and understand the underlying concepts and not just the offering!

NB: Getting certified isn't mandatory, but will go a long way in proving that you've cloud competency. And, your resume will get shortlisted quicker 😊!
