4 steps to change in career and life
- Study the material on the platform at any convenient time
- Communicate with experts and like-minded people in Telegram
- Complete practical tasks, get feedback and consolidate knowledge
- Prepare a project and supplement your portfolio with it
-
The course is 100% true to its name! I quickly mastered the program, which previously caused only horror and complete misunderstanding with its appearance.
I consider myself very lucky to have a curator. He answered all my questions in a very detailed way, told in detail what I did not quite right even attached videos showing how to do it better!
-
I am a programmer. For a long time she was engaged in the development and implementation of systems, and then led the IT departments of large energy companies. Now the time has come for me to change, and I thought that I need to update my knowledge. Moreover, I did not have the theoretical foundations for project management.
Learning on the platform was very interesting and informative, the courses helped me systematize all the experience and gain new knowledge.
-
I really like working as a designer, I am generally delighted with UX, I have always had a craving for analytics. After a long search for a job in a new field, a friend helped me get an order to redesign the website of a large company.
Separately, I want to say thanks to the curator Alexander Svoboda, he painted in great detail all the shortcomings and errors in design decisions. -
I am new to the profession and it was important for me that the course combines theory and practice. I will call my feelings more than positive, because I liked the course. I received a lot of useful information that I will use. Now I am in the process of looking for a job, and Skillbox career consultants help me a lot with this.
-
The course helped me systematize my existing knowledge and get new ones. Of great importance was the chat with other course participants and curators, where you can always discuss any questions, subtleties and nuances.
But most importantly, the course gives motivation to work on yourself, develop and allows you to take a step from self-publishing on VK or SoundCloud to monetizing creativity and commercial production.
-
The platform itself is very convenient, you can always ask a question in the chat. Or write to Telegram, where course participants will immediately help and prompt. The speaker is always in touch and records a video if something goes wrong.
As a beginner, the material is given to me not immediately, but the speaker comments and explains everything. Learning on the platform as a whole is very interesting.
-
I am taking a course with career counseling and have already received three test assignments, and I started to pass a trial period on one vacancy 😍.
Although before that, either she received refusals, or employers simply did not answer. Some kind of magic for me. -
