Fun, exciting, informative, understanding
During the course I was nervous of learning something completely new. Once I started to get a routine done and completing the tasks, the nerves went away. The instructors were great and very helpful. They answered every questioned I had and covered everything I would need to know. I appreciate the experience and would highly recommend this course to others. -

Taking classes with Careerist, was the best experience ever! As a newly introduced individual to technology, Careerist instructed, guided, and provided me with the latest software tools and instructors to enhance my overall experience as a QA Analyst. From the C.E.O, to the mentors, Careerist is an outstanding company that promotes excellence in every field of administration. My devoted mentor, (Angelina Volkov) is the absolute best in equipping me with profound wisdom, and intelligence, as she brings her skill set in sharing viable and attainable goals in what it takes to become a successful QA Analyst. I'm elated and can say with extreme confidence that Careerist is an industry leader in providing technology course training to any and everyone that is looking to further enhance or even begin their careers in the field of technology, it was truly a life-changing experience! -

I completed the Careerist Manual QA 4-week boot camp and can confidently say it was an excellent investment in my career. The curriculum was comprehensive and covered everything from test case creation to bug reporting and tracking.
The instructors were knowledgeable, engaging, and always willing to answer any questions that came up during class. They made the learning experience both enjoyable and informative. Additionally, my mentor was incredibly helpful and provided invaluable guidance throughout the program.
I particularly appreciated the hands-on approach of the boot camp, which allowed me to immediately put the concepts and skills I learned into practice. This practical approach, combined with the support of the instructors and my mentor, gave me the confidence I needed to start my career in manual QA.
Overall, I would highly recommend the Careerist Manual QA 4-week boot camp to anyone looking to learn about manual QA testing. It was a great experience, and I feel well-equipped to take on any challenges that come my way in my future QA career. -

If you want to land a tech job quickly, this course is for you. You don't need to have an IT background; all you need is to put effort and time into studying on your own. Online classes were helpful, but you need to do a lot of self-study. I landed a job in a month with the help of mentoring and interview preparation. My mentor kept me accountable, and the internship projects were helpful in gaining practical skills. I highly recommend this course. -

Good but not Great, BBring your own resources.

The Careerist Technical Sales Engineering Bootcamp offers a comprehensive program for those interested in pursuing a career in technical sales. However, I found that the lack of step-by-step instructions made it difficult to follow along, especially for those new to the field.
The course materials were presented in a rather disjointed fashion, with concepts and topics often introduced without sufficient context or explanation. This made it challenging to understand how the different pieces fit together, and I often found myself having to look up additional information or ask for clarification.
Another issue I encountered was that the course didn't seem to be structured in a way that accommodated a large number of students. While there were opportunities for interaction and discussion, the class size was simply too large to allow for meaningful engagement with instructors and peers. As a result, I often felt lost in the crowd and struggled to keep up with the pace of the course.
Despite these challenges, the Careerist Technical Sales Engineering Bootcamp does offer valuable insights and practical skills for those looking to enter the field of technical sales. However, it's important to be aware of the limitations of the course and be prepared to supplement the materials with additional resources and support as needed. -

Taking Manual QA classes with Careerists was one of my best decisions ever! They offer great, affordable, flexible classes, real projects internship and job search support. After a course I was able to find my dream job and become a professional and stay at home mom at the same time! -

I like how they assist you until you get hired. When I started this course I had 0 experience in IT field, and got job in 4 months of my job search, I am on my second job search, still getting same assistance as when I first started looking for a job. -

I graduated from Careerist Academy last year. It was an excellent experience working with a team both academically and comfortably. The schedule and curriculum were very convenient. The content and structure of the lessons were well-organized and easy to learn. Teachers and mentors are professional and supportive. After finishing the course I had amazing and helpful support from my mentor during my job search. I was advised on resume creation and step-by-step job searching. All the knowledge I got from the course was applied to my work. The scope of knowledge was enough to start my job with confidence. Highly recommend the school! -

Good Experience

The course is taught by professionals who have many years of experience and knowledge in the field of QA. It only required 2 hours of commitment 5 days a week (if I remember correctly) during the time I was taking the course. Additionally, everything was remote work. The instructors were very kind and informational. They'll answer your questions and concerns. When I signed up for the course I did the Manual QA bundle. I didn't use the Job Application Service (JAS) 'cause I didn't need to. JAS is limited with how long they'll provide assistance so just heads up. What I loved the most about the bundle was gaining real work experience through an internship(s) and having a mentor upon completing your internship(s). I can't speak for others and their experience, but my mentor did a great job with providing me with assistance and guidance. It took me some time before getting hired, but it was due to the impact of the recession. Other than that, careerist prepared me well. Do keep in mind that at the end of the day, you must follow the advice of your instructors/mentor and be ready to put in the work. I found careerist to be resourceful and beneficial to my learning path. Others may disagree in regards to their circumstances, but everyone's experience is different at the end of the day. -

Pursuing the Manual QA course with Careerist was an amazing experience. The classes were very informative and easy to understand. The teachers were very proactive with the lessons and were knowledgeable. I landed my first job as a Manual QA a couple of months after the course ended. If you are someone who is looking to change careers and step foot into the field of IT, I would definitely recommend trying out this course with Careerist. -

I graduated and got a a job in 3 weeks in 2022 while the job market was super hot. The Manual QA course is very easy to follow and the instructors and mentors are very friendly and passionate about your success. I would recommend this course to anyone who is interested in Software Quality Insurance and IT and its worth the investment because the money you'll make will be much more than the cost of the course. -

A great way for new beginnings
Read more Read less of Ayaz B.'s review
I wanted to change my career and work in IT industry, so I took Manual QA course and completed all lessons and its' tasks.
Not only I learned how to use various tools, but I also had chance to apply my learnings into the internships in the end of course.
While consolidating and practicing all that I learned, I began applying to relevant jobs. Finally 3 months later, I found my first QA job.
The course gave me the key points and knowledge to carry on at the professional work environment.
I recommend it to all who wants to change sectors or begin a journey in a QA role. -

It was great experience with company, Viktor Tsoy was as helpful as mentor could ever be. Extremely thankful for all the advices and help I received during my journey with company. After looking for a job for a while I finally got my offer. Thank you, careerist for making it happen. -

The only thing which you have to do is to follow the instructions. Careerist has a direct strategy on how to become QA Tester. There were live lessons with helpful instructors who were ready to answer our questions. Then I joined an internship to grow up my practical skills, we tested both web and mobile apps and used different test tools. I could understand how to use them on real projects and indeed it wasn't required to use the code which was just amazing. After finishing the internship I was assigned to my mentor. She helped me with job search preparation, we had enough mock interviews to feel confident. Also, my mentor helped me to create a relevant resume and an attractive LinkedIn profile for recruiters. Even after I got prepared my resume and LinkedIn, we have constant communication and I get help with my interviews. I can feel that Careerist supports me and encourages me to change my life. -
Maksim Tkachenko
Easy-Going and a lot of Information
The course was not difficult only if you really wanted to get into to the field. The instructors are very helpful and explain things well. My mentor was very helping and was always on my side. I had good support from him. He kept me going and pulled me through.
The material was taught with detail which was really good. -

Careerist changed my life

It will be soon 1 year since I started working full time as quality assurance engineer after I completed the manual QA course and internship by Careerist. Moreover, 2 of my close friends were also able to land a QA job thanks to Careerist academic support and job interview guidance. To be honest I was really suspicious about this course at first glance since they claim to land you a 75k+ job with no experience required. However, now I can assure everyone who is still in a doubt - you can do it too. I think the main secret of Careerist's success is that they know what the market needs and how to teach these skills their students. Real-life internship also gave me the confidence and full understanding of what the job looks like and how to succeed in it. All you need to do is attend all classes (or watch recordings), do the homework follow the instructions to a t, and trust your mentor. -

The best decision I made!

For me, Careerist was truly Godsent. As a mother of young kids, I was looking at transitioning from relationship management to software QA, mainly because I wanted to work remotely and I do have an eye for detail. As I was browsing online, I came across Careerist and they had exceptionally good reviews, so I decided to enroll in the manual QA course. I loved that the course was so flexible with timings, all the instructors were fantastic and I especially learnt a lot from Lana. The course content is very good, the internship gave me experience and access to tools in a real work environment; and my mentor helped with my resume and interview prep. Careerist is very supportive of all their students and graduates, even after they land a job; the support team is extremely helpful with any questions asked. I was able to land a job 2 1/2 months after graduating from Careerist. And I will say my company is extremely happy with the skills I bring and the detailed reports I am able to deliver all thanks to the training I had at Careerist. If you want to move into the IT industry and have the attitude to work smart and succeed, Careerist will help deliver that success to you. -

In 2020 I happened to become furloughed from my sales job. At that point, I knew I wanted to have more security in my career. I happened to find a listing on social media, the day I made this decision. After speaking with someone regarding my interest in the Manual QA program, seeing as I had no coding experience at the time. I thought it would be a great opportunity. I was right! Not only did the self-paced lessons allow me to work at my own pace, but the instructors and assistants were able to answer questions I had regarding the material. I attended both the Manual and Automation boot camps. I would recommend having some coding logic under your belt, prior to taking the Automation course as the instruction can get away from you if you lack that experience...(like me). The job placement prep was spot on and my personal Coordinator was very thorough in reviewing the material. -
Ayoola Ladapo
Highly Recommended Bootcamp for Manual/ Automation QA (SDET)
Read more Read less of Ayoola Ladapo's review
I did some courses in Software QA Automation with Careerist and men, I have been inviting and directing my friends (who are still wondering about my great turn-around) to Careerist as I write. Few things you must be aware of, as you register with them: 1. Be sincerely ready for a Bootcamp not to be pampered. 2. Don't make yourself an 'Accent hunter'. Instructors might have accents that's not American (this is not news, we have that all over high schools and colleges), but are super-duper talented, very very knowledgeable and industrially experienced. 3. They're NOT job givers (they never said that), but they'll assist you in your job search journey all the way- helping with Resume prep, Interview prep. etc. 4. Even after you graduate, they still maintain a resource base with you. 5. Have a good plan for yourself to moving into the IT world and don't expect anyone to parcel you and throw you in there. No one can do that! You can not for example be transiting form being a Music graduate to the IT world and not put in some extra effort to understanding what you're moving into.
Careerist as a Bootcamp is a great place to invest your time and money. I cannot emphasize the benefits enough in this forum. I got 2 SDET jobs almost two month after graduating with them. And being in the practicality of the job now, I can confidently announce to anyone that care to listen that, their Course Curriculum and Interview questions are next to none. I highly recommend them to anyone desiring to be a Manual or Automation QA. -

Their QA Manual is a joke. You can not get a job with that. There are more automation jobs in the market, and they just don't teach enough to get you a job.I am disappointed and wish I had tried automation but not here for sureFarida of Careerist

Excellent instructors who are attentive to students 24/7. They will stay with you after class until you understand the material front to back. If you want a rigorous introduction to the world of QA, Careerist is the place to start. Put in the time, participate in class, and complete their assignments without looking for shortcuts. I stuck to that routine and secured a job within two weeks after the program ended.Max Glubochansky of Careerist

Sam Carvalho
Income Share Agreement Trap
Read more Read less of Sam Carvalho's review
Don't do it! The tech sales course charges $1000 and presents talented and high-status businessmen as teachers to draw in students and give us a course with content as rudimentary as one can get from any Sales 101 Youtube series, promises closely guided career search counseling, but in practice, hires mentors that recommend lying about the student's work experience, offer only a resume template and added buzzwords and who also need to be reminded multiple times over weeks to turn on Job Application Services that only results in work opportunities from jobs totally unrelated from Tech Sales, like 100% commission pay structure insurance or door to door salesmen jobs. In the end, the student goes out, applies on their own and interviews daily for over a month, with sometimes multiple interviews per day yet no communication from the mentor, until the student lands a job on their own, and then is contractually obligated to pay up to $25,000 over the next 24 in-consecutive months of labor. Don't be so desperate for help because you won't find it here!Max Glubochansky of Careerist

Dear Mr. Carvalho, Sam. You are around a 50th in a row who is saying exactly what you have said here but in different media. Well, not word in word (like a resume template you mention above:) ), but the contents are generally the same: very poor level of aducation, fake resume and somehow a student lands a job on his own. Right into that fiels where he almost received a zero knowledge from Careerist, he/she finds a high paying job in tech. As soon as he/she starts get paid this high wages, he starts to invent how to escape his payouts under the ISA. So, the outcome from these stories is that you came to Careerist with no money and used the advantage of ISA, then got almost no education, tailored a fake resume as mentor requested, cheated the employer and got a job, think of cheating Careerist and not pay a penny because it does not cost it. Bingo! -

Course on best practices
Overall I was pleased with the Manual QA course that I attended, which was held for seven weeks. Although I was already familiar with many of the topics, it was good to receive a refresher course on best practices. I do wish that there was more explanation of intermediate tactics in software testing. The course was worth the money.Max Glubochansky of Careerist

I was thinking about making a career change to tech and there were so many different paths and fields to take. Careerist was a fantastic help because they have some good, free resources on their site that detailed what these different paths and fields really do! After some more research, I decided to enroll in their Manual course. Every single bit of it was project based, hands-on experience. I definitely recommend Careerist if you are serious about learning and motivated to gain experience for the career you want.Max Glubochansky of Careerist

I signed up for a CareerUp program last March with Careerist. I had been working in a QA Engeneer for 2 years and had reached the highest level of my role. I was eager to grow within my company and was looking to step up to the next level. I hoped to become atleast a team lead at bigger tech company. The program was amazing (and challenging at the same time!). Everyone at Careerist team was a great support. I finished the course in May i had three succsesfull interviews! And couldn’t be happier. Now I work as QA Manager at one of famous Silicon Valley companies. A big thanks the team – I wouldn’t have made it this far without you!Max Glubochansky of Careerist

You can solve this problem by changing the quality of the videos to 720 HD. The default settings are that when the internet is good the video works with high quality and when you have a poor connection, the quality goes down. -
