Waste of money
Waste of money. They over promise and waste people’s money.

Dear Betty, Thank you for your review. We are sorry to hear of some awkward situations you've got into recently after having graduated from the Careerist Program. We are determined to make it right with every student, would you consider sending us an email with your experience to [email protected] ? We'll make sure it's escalated to our management and reviewed thoroughly. It's important to mention that the six weeks in the course demand a big stake of your time to get trained up to the highest skill level and complete the program in full. The exit interview allows you to access our Job Application Service (JAS) department with career coaches helping you apply for jobs. We hope you give us another chance, Betty!

This company is a total SCAM ARTIST run by scammers, upon calling them to inquire about QA education program, the rep PRANAV immediately began to argue about the price and asking for an application fee worth $800? what ? have you lost your mind, scamming and robbing students. RUN AWAY FROM THIS PLACE BEFORE THEY SELL YOU FAKE DREAMS, I am also reporting this scammers to FBI to take a look into their financials,

Thank you for your feedback and we understand your frustration. We would like to clarify that Careerist has never had an $800 application fee, nor do we charge such a fee to enroll in our program. It's possible that the individual was researching payment options at the time or there was some confusion, but at no time did we ask for an $800 fee. Since the time of this review, our program has evolved significantly and Careerist is now ranked among the top 8 IT bootcamps in the US. Regarding the representative you mentioned, we don't currently have anyone named Pranav on our team. We've since worked to improve our team and process to ensure transparency and the best experience for our students. Careerist offers real-world internships, hands-on training, one-on-one mentorship, and job placement assistance, with a money-back guarantee for students who meet the criteria but don't get a job. We're proud of the positive impact we've had on our students and their successful transitions into technology careers. We welcome your feedback and would be happy to discuss any further questions you may have.

Good Platform for Learners
Great platform if you are looking for a new job. I took the Manual QA course (class of July 2020) and the instructors and mentors were really supportive and patient. Normally I find remote learning a bit challenging, but it worked really well because of how practical and rich the program was. I feel ready to start my career in QA and considering taking the advance course (QA Automation) in the future, when I feel ready to learn some code.

I've never completed a course like this before (remote instruction) and I cannot express how great the instructor was and the overall content of the material. I would defintely recommend this to my co-workers as well as friends. I will be looking into taking more of these classes through Careerist in the near future. Thank you.

This is like a very compressed knowledge base for start. You feel that each part is precious. Even if you know some theoretical basics you can repeat them in a different way and you can fill your knowledge gaps. I've found many interesting things here - in one place. No less important is a very nice atmosphere.

Give Careerist a try
When they contacted me, I thought it was a scam after researching and seeing their competition. I However, can tell you that I had previous failures in technical interviews and did not have much confidence in my ability to pass them. After going through the lessons and getting their support, They were able to turbocharge my resume, and I was able to get a lot of interviews quickly. In addition, I was able to master both the technical and behavior parts of the interview and gain the confidence to land a position. If you want to go to the next level of your career and pass those technical interviews, give Careerist a try.
