I was previously in the tech field, but I decided to try something new and went into the insurance industry. I did not want to continue down that path and decided to go back into tech. This training was something I found while looking for another job, and it caught my eye. I did have some tech background, but the program was easy enough to follow without it. The instructors and mentors are so welcoming and helpful. It was such a great experience. My mentor helped me with everything I needed to succeed in finding a job. I was more confident and less nervous with all the prep. I applied to jobs for about six weeks, and I had about eighteen interviews. Now I work fully remote, as I am in Utah and the company is based in California. It is great to be back in the tech field, and working here makes me feel like I will be around for the long term.

I just accepted a role as a Sales Engineer in New York City for $120K! Thank you to the Careerist team as well as everyone who took this program with me! It literally changed my life!

I just received my offer letter from Hubspot this evening. I want to give a big shout out to the entire Careerist SE team. Amichai, you'll be pleased to know I didn't whimper, and I got that salary I was looking for (ha ha). Charles Sammons and Nigel Chimwaza, thank you guys for being like my older brothers through this entire process. It has been quite the emotional roller coaster as life kept throwing curveballs.... I was doing interviews even while fighting COVID! I am very grateful for this experience. Hubspot is a company that is at the dead center of marketing and business growth, so my comfortability here will be more than what I was expecting. Believe it or not, out of all the companies I was interviewing with, I thought they were the ones least likely to pick me--yet here we are. And I can't forget about my best friend during this process, Vasylyna Zhuk.

I want to thank the Careerist team for being so so professional and sharing their knowledge with me. I also want to thank them for being so helpful during the course and especially with job searching. I’m extremely grateful to Anastasia, who mentored me through the whole process until I got hired. I have already recommended Careerist to several people.
