Daniel Nguyen

This training caught my eye while I was looking for another job. 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. Now I work fully remote in Utah for a company based in California.

Gilbert Baidya

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!

Emmanuel Fadojutimi

I just received my offer from Hubspot this evening, so I want to give a big shout out to the entire Careerist SE team! It has been quite the emotional roller coaster as life kept throwing curveballs…I was doing interviews even while fighting COVID! But I'm very grateful for this experience.

Elena Rosca

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 training and especially with job searching. I’m extremely grateful to Anastasia, who helped me through it. I already recommended Careerist to several people.
