"Careerist Provided a Memorable Learning Experience."

I recently completed the Careerist Manual SQA Engineering bootcamp, and it was an amazing experience. It was my first bootcamp, so I don’t have anything to compare it to, but I can confidently say that my skepticism quickly turned into genuine appreciation... Read More

From the very beginning, I was impressed by the structure and quality of the course. The lessons were clear, well-organized, and designed to progressively build my knowledge and skills in Software Quality Assurance.

The instructors were exceptional. They were not only experts in the field but also very open, passionate and dedicated during delivery. Careerist also offered invaluable career coaching and support in preparation for job search.

The hands-on internship component was the major highlight for me. It provided real-world experiences that solidified the concepts I was taught. I think that this practical exposure has given me the confidence I need to take on real SQA tasks.

Drawbacks? Despite my initial concerns about the length and timing of the classes--being from the East Coast—the engaging nature of the classes made the long hours worth it.

Overall, the Careerist bootcamp exceeded my expectations in every way. The supportive environment, combined with expert instruction and valuable practical experience, made for a truly enriching learning journey. I feel well-prepared to start my career in Software Quality Assurance.

I have not yet started the final part of the program -actual Job Search-so I am unable to comment on that aspect at this time (I will return to do so at a future date). However, I am very optimistic and confident in my abilities due to the comprehensive training I’ve received. I am really looking forward to beginning that phase next week and I am eager to apply the skills I’ve learnt throughout the program.

I would highly recommend Careerist for your QA training.
