Success stories of our beets

After graduating from a technical university, I worked as an energy manager and had career achievements. However, the coronavirus pandemic has significantly affected the market, and I decided that it was time to make a dream come true, namely, to change the field of activity. I had friends who were IT professionals, their atmosphere of communication, knowledge and thinking seemed to me to be something cool and something that would make me happy. I took a responsible approach to choosing a school. I studied the market of IT schools, read reviews, prepared a table with favourites ones, and, after personal communication with school managers, made an informed decision. I was fortunate to have a teacher, Iryna, who shared her knowledge, and practical experience and invited colleagues to give lectures. All this knowledge then significantly distinguished me from other candidates at interviews, and I had several offers. The self-study approach before class works really cool. Also, the guests invited by the teacher and the analysis of actual cases were helpful, and I later used it many times in my work. Even during the course, I had job interviews. A set of knowledge, good English, an understanding of processes and a demonstration of a completed project during the training helped in finding a job. And I received job offers. In the first month of the full-scale invasion of Russia, I was lucky enough to find my company - the company of my dreams. I have been working as a project manager at Digis for a year and have many exciting projects.

I have been looking for myself for a very long time. I worked in a hotel, at the reception desk in a sports club, as a manicurist, a hair removal specialist, and a florist, and for the longest time, I worked in the confectionery business. I baked confectionery to order for cafes and restaurants. But I was always jealous of my husband, who could go to another country without stopping his work. You see, taking flour and sugar or a food processor with you on a trip is not very convenient. When the quarantine began, and restaurants closed, I was in despair. There is no work; there is no development. I was bored as never before until I remembered my dream, which I had been putting off forever because I was afraid that I would not be able to do it. But I slept and dreamt about working anywhere, earning more, and being more free and confident. I wanted something more to depend on me. I wanted to be needed. And I thought that no one could stop me from trying it. I wanted to "taste" my dream. And I started looking for courses. Everything was somehow bland, not "sweet", and not interesting. But that was before I remembered that Beetroot Academy existed. I fell in love at first sight! I saw an exciting program; the course description was more than detailed and beautifully designed. I did not hesitate for a second. In the beginning, I was apprehensive that I would fail and lag behind. But the lessons were enjoyable and interesting. If something needed to be clarified, the teacher always explained it as many times as required. For this, she has great respect and gratitude. And in 2 months, I received my first offer, and I'm still working at my dream job. I want to note how dedicated our teacher was to his work! I could talk for hours about how wonderful she was. She answered our questions at night, during the day, and in the morning; she helped us so much and gave us valuable and interesting information — our sweet pea. Two months after graduation, I was actively looking for a job. And I found it, and I work here to this day. It is a ChekRite product company based in Australia. It is a very cool project. We are talking about the web resource, which is synchronized with mobile applications on Android and iOS. Our application helps to get rid of paper documentation for all kinds of factories, farms, and farmers who conduct hundreds of paper audits every day. Our product allows you to save time and trees.
