I'm very happy that I made the decision to learn QA with Careerist. The instructors were extremely supportive, and I feel I'm set to grow in my career as a tester. Although there were long hours of tests, it was a fun challenge. It took 4 months, but I finally landed a job! Careerist was with me every step of the way.
Careerist provided a fantastic service. I’m currently working full time and progressing in my tech career. I highly recommend both the course and the company. The customer service team always worked very closely with me. Thank you!
This is a wonderful course for learning both theoretical information and important practical skills. This course provides a broad understanding of testing, but you get to do an internship too. They also teach you how to sell yourself and job hunt. I’m really impressed! I can’t believe I finally got a job in tech.
My wife and I did the QA training and it was great! We're both from non-IT backgrounds, and the course was taught in a practical way that was easy for us to understand. The hands-on, immersive experience from day one really helped us. I’d recommend it to anyone who wants to get into tech. In 5 months, we both got jobs!
My experience with Careerist has been great. They helped me through the entire process, from when I started taking courses until I got a job as a QA Engineer. For me, the best part was how honest and open they were about the program, which was evident from their free webinar. You can ask any questions along the way.
