"They are after your money!"

I invested a significant amount of time and money into Carrierist, completing all the classes and assignments with the hope of receiving genuine support to find a job. Sadly, my experience was disheartening and left me feeling abandoned.

The mentor provided... Read More

After a year and three months of struggling with job applications, I had to take a break due to pregnancy. The mentor assured me that my access to the program and support would remain intact and that I could reach out when I was ready to return. However, upon contacting them later, I learned that my mentor had left the company and was directed to customer service. To my dismay, I was told that my access had expired and that there was nothing they could do to help me.

Carrierist had a money-back guarantee if no job was found within a year, but my mentor never mentioned this option, even though it was clear I was nowhere near finding employment. Now, I am left without a job, without a mentor, and with no access to the program I paid for—$5,000 gone and no recourse.

It’s deeply upsetting to realize that Carrierist's promises were just empty words. They seem more interested in signing up clients than in genuinely supporting their success. I am heartbroken and feel utterly let down by what was supposed to be a life-changing opportunity!
