Unparalleled support
I wholeheartedly recommend the Careerist Python/QA Test Automation course to anyone interested in skilling up! The course is definitely very technical in nature, but the instructors are knowledgeable and enjoy teaching. The materials are clear and you can review the class videos as many times as you need. The homework is challenging, but there are two assistants that you can ping on Slack anytime to get help. You are also placed on an internship project and get resume/Linkedin assistance...I wholeheartedly recommend the Careerist Python/QA Test Automation course to anyone interested in skilling up!

Careerist - Sales Engineering
My experience thus far in Sales Engineering training has been a good one. Majority of the courses focus on the sales and soft skills needed in a Sales Engineering position. I already have a sales background and have a great understanding of these things so this training has been a breeze. I've truly picked the perfect field of study for me because, the main focus in this training comes to me so naturally!

I appreciate how open all of the instructors have been in sharing their experiences as Sales Engineers themselves. They have all been open and ready to answer any questions the class may have and even stay online longer than the allotted class time to make sure that we have a clear understanding of the lessons.
I graduate in 2 weeks and I feel confident that I will land the position I desire!
