Great course
Read more Read less of Vic Ray's review
Fantastic class and great opportunity. I have been to multiple data analytics courses and this is the best by far. Glad to be here and looking forward to my future in the field. I have studied under the Google certificate, IBM certification, and a few less know programs prior. None for these others cultivate the team work amongst peers, has the teaching skills and methods like careerist, or offer the 1:1 mentorship that is critical for success in this field -

Perfect for people who can’t study full time
Read more Read less of Judith Wright's review
I wanted a course that offered pre-recorded lectures and interactive classes at the same time. I chose Careerist because the schedule was optimal and they allowed me to split my payments more conveniently than other platforms. A SMALL DISCLAIMER: it’s impossible to spend just half an hour per week studying. You need to concentrate, analyze and memorize A LOT on your own. BUT the Careerist teachers are very supportive and they will answer all your questions and send you feedback. -

Good entry point into tech

Careerist teachers know how to deal with students who can’t write a single line of code. They dole out the information in small doses. When they share a fact they always explain why it’s like that and how you can deal with it. I appreciate it! Besides, they talk a lot about the ins and outs of recruiting in the tech industry. I feel like I’m ready for my first job interview, but let me graduate first. -

My mentor convinced me I’m not hopeless

I wanted to break into data analytics… In the 2nd month of the course I felt like it might not be for me. I was among the worst-performing students and I even thought about giving up. But first I asked the teachers for help and they held several extra consultations with me so I could catch up with the others. Later I felt inspired and motivated again, and my performance improved too. I’m really grateful for such support!

Possible to learn
It is broken down so you are able to learn and apply what you have learned. If you stick with it you’ll understand it. Didn’t really like how it was always different instructors some were better at teaching than others. The internship helped to learn alot because it’s hands on it can be overwhelming sometimes but it’s doable. Overall I liked it no complaints -

Don’t skip classes and the rest will be fine

The biggest mistake I made was skipping online classes. 😬 I had no tech experience and I took the QA bundle. I struggled to catch up with the rest of the group. When I put more effort into my studies I began to perform much better. The teachers were super helpful. They explained both the tech part and the career part in detail. They were always patient and positive. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to study diligently. -

I had my ups and downs during my studies. Some things weren’t easy to understand. Sometimes I didn’t have enough time because I also work full-time. I wish the teachers and career coaches could spend more time with me... Anyway, I’m happy that I graduated and learned so much useful info! For now I’ve had only one job interview and they didn’t hire me. I’m staying optimistic and keeping on searching! -

Positive impressions only

I’ve been studying systems engineering for 2 months and my perception of this occupation has changed considerably… It turned out to be more difficult and exciting than I imagined. They say that generally people study 6-8 hours per week on this course, but for me it takes around 10 hours because I want to memorize every single detail and I practice a lot on my own. Hopefully I will keep enjoying it until graduation. -

I wish I had joined Careerist earlier
I began to think about online tech courses two years ago. First I lacked money and then I wasn’t sure which course to choose. Now I’m about to complete the Systems Engineering course at Careerist. I haven’t found a job yet but I’ve talked to graduates who are employed and they inspire me. Career coaching is so comprehensive so I’m not too worried about the job search. -
Angela Gilbert
Career coaching was the best part
Read more Read less of Angela Gilbert's review
I haven't worked for the last 10 years because I have small kids and I had no technical background, so I was quite nervous at the beginning of the course. Surprisingly the tech part of the studies was the easiest for me. I enjoyed doing the tasks and receiving feedback! The instructors said I was a quick learner, :) but I felt a bit insecure because I didn't know how to deal with employers. My career coach helped me a lot, she was absolutely brilliant! She explained everything to me and I rehearsed the interview. Now it’s time to start looking for a job. -

Expensive but rewarding
Read more Read less of Bryden Andrews's review
The only thing I don’t like about careerist is the price! However, other providers charge just as much or even more... I borrowed funds to buy a course and I felt nervous because I wasn’t sure if this investment would pay off. But it seems it will! I spent 7 weeks after graduation looking for jobs. I had no results but then two companies invited me for an interview at the same time. Now I’m waiting for responses. If none of them accepts me I know I will find something, but of course it takes time. -
Anderson James
Up-to-date and informative
I’ve recently finished the course and now I can share my experience. In general it was great. I appreciated the well-structured curriculum and large amount of applied and up-to-date information. No boring, outdated theory, only practical advice and real cases. I can't say anything about employment yet but I really liked the content of the course. -

New, interesting, helpful
Ive enjoyed my time spent studying and learning with Careerist. These mentors have real life experience and valuable insight that can’t be overlooked. I genuinely feel they want to see everyone succeed and will make sure you’re understanding in order to be successful. Come to Careerist with the mindset to put work into improving yourself while acquiring some skills on top of it. -
Dylan Robinson
I just got a job!
Yesterday I signed a contract! A small tech company hired me!!! I spent 4 months looking for a job. I managed to find a job using the Job Application Service by Careerist. I completed a test task and passed an interview. I’m so happy! -
Sherry Smith
It was quite a challenge but I made it
I studied UX/UI design at Careerist. Ufff, that was tough! I had to completely change my approach to design. I thought it would be more about creativity, but it was about profit first of all. Careerist taught me how to design not for self-expression but for business. These guys are so pragmatic and I trust them. -

Got my first paycheck yesterday!
Read more Read less of Henry Ward's review
My employer offered me a test period of 2 months. I did the first one well and I got my first paycheck. The boss says that I have good testing skills and I got them at Careerist! It took me about 3 months or so to get employed. In the first month I sent out quite few job applications. Starting with the second month I began to do it every day and eventually got a job. Careerist tutors taught me how to apply properly. Thanks!!! -
Mary Cooper
Got a job thanks to Careerist
I learned manual QA just for fun. I collected a portfolio and began to apply for jobs but no one wanted me! I asked the employers for feedback but nobody replied. ☹️ So then I enrolled for the course. At careerist, they explained what I did wrong. I finally got a job two weeks before graduation. I think I was the first person in my group who got hired!! -

I’m studying ux/ui design and I’m enjoying it!! I already know how to use figma and slack. The biggest revelation for me was maze - it helps you research your audience and make data-driven decisions. The instructors teach us how to handle practical tasks and give just the necessary minimum of theory. We have instructors from meta, airbnb and google! And later we’ll have an internship and make a portfolio! -
Ethan Griffin
Got one job offer and still looking
Read more Read less of Ethan Griffin's review
I completed the manual QA course. I graduated three weeks ago and now I’m actively looking for a job. I use jas, linkedin and job boards. I had two interviews (one from jas and the other from linkedin) and one job offer. A startup almost hired me but they wanted me to work remotely and I don’t feel 100% confident for that yet… I want a hybrid job so that I can watch how more experienced testers work. So I had to decline their offer. Some might say I’m reckless but I’m not in a hurry and I want to find the perfect job. -
Agatha Robertson
Hope to find a good job after graduation
I’m halfway through the sales engineering course. I’m combining it with a part-time job and tbh I thought it would be more difficult! Actually it’s not that hard. I really like the teachers and how they deliver the information. I can’t wait to try the Job Application Service! So far, it seems to me this course is worth the money I paid. -

I joined the manual QA course to start a new life. Recently I’ve completed it. I found the course structure well-paced and the content comprehensive. The instructors' clear expertise and real-world examples truly helped me grasp the concepts. While a tad challenging at times, the course has significantly boosted my confidence in QA testing. It's never too late to learn, and this course proves that. -
chris ballard
Loved it
Manual QA course was a game-changer. Practical exercises, up-to-date content, and strong support made it a fantastic learning experience. Ready for the QA world now! By the time I completed the course, I felt ready to tackle the challenges of the QA industry head-on. -
Diana Reid
Impressive Manual QA Training
Manual QA course was outstanding. Instructors were knowledgeable, and the hands-on projects were invaluable. Highly recommended for anyone entering the QA field. I can confidently say that this course has opened doors for me. -
Scott Mitchell
I’ve been working as a manual tester for nearly three years, so I understand this job a bit.
To expand my career opportunities, I completed the QA Automation course at Careerist. Probably, I could have learned some things on my own. But it’s always great to get advice from experienced tech pros. Plus, I got a formal certificate, which is essential for some companies that I’d like to apply to. -
Daniel Ackman
Thank you for the nice experience
QA Manual is a simple and helpful guide for testing software by hand. It's good for beginners and experts to learn important methods and tips. Definatly recommend it to everyone. I enjouned joining online classes and following the instructions. -
Jasmine Washington
I chose Careerist over other the six platforms that I considered.
First, I made a spreadsheet where I compared all the options. Then, I got in touch with the teams of all the platforms to assess how they communicate and answer questions. In the final standings, Careerist scored two points higher than the runner-up. I’m halfway through the UX course now and I don’t regret my choice at all. -

Great way to start your tech career!
Right now I’m in the internship program, and I have nothing but great things to say about careerist ! The instructors are well educated and great at explaining what we are doing as a Manual QA. I’ll leave another review once I land that tech job! -
Matthew Jenkins
I studied Sales Engineering at Careerist and it was the first online course that I completed.
I felt nervous in the beginning. But in the second week already, I felt that the process was completely under control! I loved the pace of my studies and the commitment of the teachers. It was a valuable experience and I greatly appreciated career advice. -
Steven Lamar Moore
Awesome experience!
The course was very helpful as well as all of the instructors involved. Clear instructions were given, tests, and quizzes helped to retain the information. The intership portion of the program really helped my growth and skills as a Manual QA. I’m looking forward to the job search and starting my career as a Manual QA. -
Charlotte Mines
Nice experience
I wanted to share how much I liked the QA manual. It was super easy to follow, and they explained everything step by step. It felt like they were right there with us, guiding us. The manual course was really nice! -

A Great Learning Experience
The Careerist manual qa course provides flexibility allowing you to learn while managing home life and work life. The instructors are extremely helpful and you never feel out of place when asking a question. The experience and feedback you get from the internal internship is invaluable and helps the learning process. If you’re not afraid of learning something new, this is the route to go. -

Fantastic Manual QA Bootcamp - Careerist
Read more Read less of Faris Alkassim's review
Not only is this Bootcamp affordable but it was extremely informative, educational and practical. They have well structured Live lessons ( that are also recorded if you cannot attend the live session) that teach you the required theory but also have great practical hands on exercises (homework) that help to build a foundation for the skills you'll acquire and the industry leading tools that you'll be using. They also offer 2 internships so that once you've completed all the classes you'll be ready to hit the open job market with actual real life experience for your Resume/CV. They also provide Career Coaches to help you focus on successfully landing that first job in Manual QA. I have and would continue to recommend this program to anyone looking to break into this amazing field. -
Wade Wilson
Comfortable payment plan
I couldn’t afford the full tuition fee upfront. I asked several course providers to offer personalized payment plans for me and Careerist offered the most comfortable option. After completing the system engineering course, I got my first job rather easily but left it in two months. It took me 11 weeks to find a perfect job enabling me become a digital nomad. I feel free and happy now. -
Emmanuel Mondragon
Great
Overall I have been satisfied with the lessons and instructors that have been teaching me in how to do Manuel QA. Also liked that the bootcamp comes with an internship was satisfied with it since it got me familiar with the job. -

I am thrilled to report that the bootcamp I attended met and exceeded my expectations. The instructors were friendly, courteous, highly professional, and experienced in the field. Their expertise and knowledge made the learning process seamless and enjoyable. The program provided me with comprehensive software QA engineering training, instilling confidence and readiness for my future career prospects. Thanks to this bootcamp, I feel better equipped to secure my desired job and kickstart my journey as a Software QA Engineer. Throughout the internal internship, my mentor and QA Lead were always available to help solve any questions and doubts, ensuring I could efficiently write test cases and bug reports in the real world. I am grateful to everyone who supported me on this path, and I can't thank them enough. -

Great
Max was awesome, during the course it got confusing. He had patience and helped me understand the topic clearly. My suggestion is to ask the instructors for help, don't be scared to ask. Just try your best and be consistent everyday -

I’m currently in the external internship phase. Careerist has done an amazing job going step by step with me, gaining the knowledge to become a player in this tech world. I started with no clue, and now I’m close to being able to apply and land a work from home job. Family and traveling is something I’ve always wanted to do. Thanks to Careerist, I can be able to work on the go. With no worries of a
on-site job putting in for vacation. -

IMHO, Job Application Service is more helpful than job boards
I chose Careerist because of its custom Job Application Service. I saw how my cousin used it and I decided I wanted it too. I studied manual QA and thanks to JAS, I finally got a job. I sent around 40 applications and had two job interviews before finding my current employer.
