    Careerist Manual QA Bootcamp

    Careerist was everything I needed to switch careers in a time where everthing was pointing to starting something new (during covid). The instructors were excellent, the coursework was extremely do-able, and the support through the process was always accessible. I still review my notes today when I need to refer to a topic that pertains to my current position as QA. I still participate in the channels provided. 
    It is scary to switch gears after a long career in one field, and the supp...

    Fun, exciting, informative, understanding

    During the course I was nervous of learning something completely new. Once I started to get a routine done and completing the tasks, the nerves went away. The instructors were great and very helpful. They answered every questioned I had and covered everything I would need to know. I appreciate the experience and would highly recommend this course to others.

    Hands-on internship

    If you want to land a tech job quickly, this course is for you. You don't need to have an IT background; all you need is to put effort and time into studying on your own. Online classes were helpful, but you need to do a lot of self-study. I landed a job in a month with the help of mentoring and interview preparation. My mentor kept me accountable, and the internship projects were helpful in gaining practical skills. I highly recommend this course.
