Job ready, Information, fruitful

Classes were flexible and knowledgeable! Teachers were informative with great ability to relate to the students. Great QA course setup and structure. Internship was a great way to get your feet wet on the day to day stand up meetings and actual work! One on one and mentorship was great! I was given the ability to role play interviews and help prepare myself for the job! We oiled recommend 10/10!

Careerist was a great learning experience for QA

I did my research while I was looking for a bootcamp to attend, Careerist always came up as one of the top. I decided to go with them because of the flexibility in payment. The course was very interactive, the teachers were knowledgeable professionals who work in the field. They really do attend to the students, whether it's during class time or via communication. Definitely one of the best decisions I've made!

Interesting, but can be better.

I felt like the lessons could have taught more. There was a solid amount of information, but manual QA has so many avenues that their current curriculum isn't enough. The instructors did a good job with their lesson plan. I feel like the mentors do the most. They're very helpful with the entire process.

Fantastic

I recently graduated from a course for the Manual Quality Assurance Analyst role at Careerist, and I was really pleased with how well it was taught. The course material was well-organized and simple to follow, and the instructor was knowledgeable and interesting. In addition, there were many chances for discussion and feedback throughout the course also the mentors have your full support in terms of helping you after graduation in applying to a Job and guiding you through the path. The training was a huge assist in preparing me for my career aspirations, in my opinion. Anyone trying to further their career should definitely check out Careerist, in my opinion.

Careerist has most support!

I tried my hardest to find something “wrong” with Careerist. But every question I had. Has been answered right away. Every obstacle they said I would encounter. Careerist has provided support to overcome! I am EXTREMELY confident that I will land a position in tech sooner rather than later. This was one of the best decisions I’ve made.

Manual QA engineer course and mentorship

 I completed the manual QA engineer course with mentorship and it was an incredibly rewarding experience. The course materials were well-organized and easy to follow, and the mentor was extremely knowledgeable and supportive throughout the entire process.  Additionally, the mentor provided valuable feedback and insights that helped me improve my testing strategies and techniques. Overall, I feel much more confident in my abilities as a QA engineer thanks to this course and mentorship. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to learn and grow in this field.

informative, relaxed, easy, fast

I'm very very happy with Careerist Bootcamp! My three friends who graduated from Careerist, all found jobs after they completed the program! As everyone recommended this bootcamp, I decided to give it a try even though I was not really interested in IT. In Careerist, everything is structured, comfortable, and easy to understand! In my case, I was studying while I was working, so combining a bootcamp with my job was extremely easy. The staff are friendly and provide excellent knowledge along with support, and after you finish the internship, you'll have your own mentor who will guide you throughout the whole process until you find a job. Whether you have any doubts or questions, Careerist's staff will handle everything in a professional manner. Lastly and most importantly: I got hired!

Great experience and training

The Careerist QA Manual course was an excellent preparation for my current job. When asked who knew Jira, I raised my hand and was the only one in my team of 10+ people who knew of it. The instructors, mentors, Max and the team were and are great.

Easy, Informative, Helpful

I enjoyed my QA Manual training with Careerist. There were various instructors teaching the lessons throughout the bootcamp. They make the lessons easy to understand and would answer our questions anytime we need additional clarifications on specific topics. After we graduated from the bootcamp, we are assigned to a mentor that will assist us with resume and job interview preparations, which I find very helpful. There is definitely a lot of value in this bootcamp. My overall experience has been great.

Excellent course, easy to understand for beginner with no experience, great support!

I highly appreciate the manual QA course leadership. The instructions were easy to follow to accomplish all the tasks and our team leader Daria Harashchenko was there pretty much 24/7 to answer the questions and guide thru the tasks. It really helped to break an ice and boost my confidence as I haven't had any prior experience and now I feel capable and most important understand everything I've been told.

It was a great challenge while learning a new skill.

I enjoyed the Manual QA Engineer program, and am enjoying the Automated JAS to help fill out applications and get hired. The teachers were professional and dedicated to helping students succeed. I have fun with the other students. I learned quite a bit from this program.

The course content was well-structured and covered everything from the basics of manual testing to more advanced topics like test automation. Instructors were knowledgeable and engaging, and I felt comfortable asking questions and seeking clarification whenever I needed it. I had a fantastic experience with this bootcamp. I now feel confident in my ability to perform manual QA testing.I highly recommend this course to anyone who is looking to get started in manual QA testing.

Had a great learning experience!

I had a wonderful experience learning about Manual QA, my team lead was incredibly patient with me and help me learn everything that I needed to know throughout the internship! I had a really flexible schedule and was able to balance my day job and the internship with little to no hassle. The meetings were very informative and coherent, I understood all the information provided to me and would highly recommend anyone interested in this course to try it out for yourself!

Good way to pivot into Tech!

Overall I really enjoyed my experience with Careerist. I work full-time during the day and needed courses that would be flexible enough to work around my schedule. The Careerist classes were 3 days a week and in the evenings, which worked perfectly for me. Also, each class is recorded, so its easy to watch the recorded classes if you miss a day. The instructors are all knowledgeable and good at explaining the material and answering questions students leave in the chat. The pre-internship and internship after passing the classes provide excellent real-world experience for what you will actually be doing on the job. After successfully completing the internships, you are assigned a mentor to assist with your resume, LinkedIn profile and job search, which is very helpful. The JAS (Job Application System) is semi-automated and comes in handy with applying for jobs. Unfortunately, the fully automated version is currently not available. It may possibly come back but I am not sure. The only minor complaint that I have is that you do not get any kind of certificate of completion from Careerist. That would be nice. But overall, for under $5,000, Careerist is a great option if you are looking to pivot into Tech without accumulating massive debt going to a traditional College or University.
