Got the results

I attended Manual QA course and after 4 months of job search landed the job in a huge Tech company!
Just prepare to actually put in time and effort! Some things you have to research on your own, dedicate time and follow the instructions. I've had my downs both when studying and job hunting but got the result sticking to it and not giving up. And listen to your mentor, he/she is your friend and will always support you as long as you do your part. Good luck to everyone!!!

Great experience, would recommend

My experience with Careerist has been great! The lessons were easy to follow along and since they’re recorded, also easy to go back and review/take notes. Instructors are all incredibly knowledgeable and from various backgrounds. The greatest value for me is the internship opportunities to get real project experience. I would definitely recommend careerist

Careerist is a great company

Careerist is well structured. I finished the software QA engineer course in August 2023. The company offers a variety of resources such as internships and career coaching pre and post graduation. I spent a decade in the medical field and was anxious about being unable to comprehend anything related to tech. However, the instructors were extremely patient. They always encouraged me and took their time to answer my questions. Careerist also has internship opportunities for graduates which I am currently participating in. Although I haven’t secured a job yet, I know that I am on the right path.

I believe I had a great experience at Careerist from going from no career expertise and now having a part time job right after I got out of the company bootcamp. I believe it is great for everyone to develop an understanding for and can be great for more people to get into tech into the future.

My experience with careerist…

The experience I had with careerist was/is great. If I never need anything they are helpful. The course, the internship, the staff and more really prepares you for when one lands a job after course which they invest time in making sure one lands a job. The experience is top notch the only reason I didn’t give five stars because I have not landed a job yet. When I do I will update it. If you’re looking for help from beginning to end with experienced people in the industry then careerist is for you.

I will save the last star until I land my job. I have enjoyed the bootcamp, the teachers are focused, knowledgeable and bring a lot of experience to the class. The bootcamp moves along quickly and I've learned so much that I feel confident I will land my job soon. The actual preparation for interviews has taken longer than I hoped. There is a lot to accomplish to be ready to apply for the MQA positions. I feel supported by all the staff and they all present themselves as professionals.

Great experience!

I had a great experience as the coursework was comprehensive. The recordings are available so you can follow up if you missed a session. Quizzes to help test your knowledge. The internship program is exciting and the best is having a coach to support you throughout the job search process, making the task less stressful. I had a wonderful experience with customer service as they give quick responses and will always follow up to ensure you got your solution. The overall careerist team is doing a great job. To me they overdelivered. Worth trying.

Although I have not yet graduated from the Manuel QA program as of this moment, I would like to express my opinion on the bootcamp now.

There are many options for boot camps nowadays, but Careerist will keep their promises and will be there for you. I think the bootcamp is TOTALLY WORTH THE MONEY. From beginning to end, Careerist will take care of you. They will guide you through every step from the boot camp course, to the internship to finding a job. They are open to any questions you may have and will respond quickly to any emails.

Careerist provides a solid Manual QA program for those looking to transition into the tech field. I started the program with 0 MQA knowledge and was able to grasp various concepts with the help of instructors and coaches. Lessons are recorded and you can go back at anytime to rewatch or refresh yourself on the information taught. There are quizzes and homework assignments that are graded to make sure you understand the material. They provide both an internal and external internship opportunity that allows you to apply your new skills that have been acquired. After finishing the course, I was assigned a career coach that has been helpful and consistent with prepping me/checking in on me during my career search. I haven't landed a job offer yet but everything leading up to the job search has been satisfactory.

I've been very pleased with Careerist

I've been very pleased with the experience at Careerist! The lessons are well organized and laid out. The instructors were great and gave students every opportunity to make sure individuals fully understood all the material presented. The internships were a great way to get some hands-on training and build confidence. The inclusion of career coaching, graduate meetings, and support is a wonderful additional value and allows you to feel confident that you are doing things the correct/current way in job searching.

I have had a great time with Careerist

I have had a great time with Careerist. The instructors during the teaching part of the program are all helpful and knowledgeable. I learned a lot of useful skills. The internship process is also good and gave me a decent idea of what I'd be doing in the manual QA field. Once I finished everything and moved into the job search process, I was guided through the most efficient way to do it, and Careerist has stayed in touch to help me get my first job. I would definitely recommend Careerist to anyone looking to get into a new field.
