Sales Engineer
This is My experience with Careerist and i would like to share it for anybody wants to make decision.
Sales Engineering in Careerist is nothing more than Sales Rep Training. For Sales Engineering, you need to have Technical background and they do not mention this at the time of admission. basically, they don't have any admission process. They only try to get more students no matter what is their qualification and are they a good fit for the sales Engineering position or not?

They only try to get more students no matter what is their qualification and are they a good fit for the sales Engineering position or not?
The way they teach and their Curriculum is only general concept and only good to know what is sales cycle is but you get only overall understanding nit much detail and not much you need to apply for jobs. They placement rate is based on their statement is less than 40% both sales and sales Engineering which is for 30 students in both class, you only have 10-12 people get job which is very low.
regarding mentorship, they dont know what is sales Engineering is, They only use Template resume and put some words in your Resume and when you tell them i dont know about these stuff, they say" no worries. the instructor will teach you" but honestly, the instructors did not talk about these terms at all.
Regarding their internship, unfortunately, they don't have anything for internship. they only give you a list of customers and ask you call them and honestly this is not the job of sales Engineer. its a sales Rep job and that's it. honestly, waste of time.
long story short, maybe they are good only in QA and collect reviews and not in sales and sales Engineering.
hope that helps for anyone want to join the class. and hope they can fix their problems.Max Glubochansky of Careerist

Dear Ray. I really appreciate you have shared your experience about Careerist school and let me comment it so that naturally if somebody would like to decide, they need to understand all things and processes right.
We really tend to have our house full for each of our course because this factor is important for the high level the students get at our school. Completeness of groups directly affects the financing of the educational process, and we strive to ensure that our students receive everything of the highest quality. We do not mention the necessity to have a technical background for our future Sales Engineers. We admit they do not need to be of a Technical background. We teach them to be during the course. We provide the sufficient knowledge for our alumni to be Sales Engineers. We assist them with placement in this profession. Sales Representative that you mention is a totally different profession. It's about the customer relationship, but not technical insight about deployment and implementation.
Our mentors are real superstars in the things they do to the students. If there's anything you do not know, and they address you to an instructor, you had to ask the instructor about your issue if you did not hear it during the curriculum. I can't comment on this very situation, because I do not know how was it. You might have missed it in the curriculum, or you missed asking the instructor as it were beyond curriculum.
Surprisingly, you landed a job as a Sales Rep after the Sales Engineering course. This job requires a completely different education than our Sales Engineering course. Good luck anyway!

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 - Derek RamseyGraduate • QA Manual bootcamp • OnlineSep 29, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
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. - Henry MartinGraduate • QA Manual bootcamp • OnlineSep 28, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Currently looking for a job
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! - Nikitin ZakharStudent • QA Manual bootcamp • OnlineSep 27, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
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. - Ronnie WallaceGraduate • QA Manual bootcamp • OnlineSep 26, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
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.
