Successful story
How a dancer from Mariupol became a designer at an American company
Don't give up everything, and don't rush — switch to a new profession gradually if you have the opportunity to work in your previous specialty. After February 24 and moving from Mariupol to Europe, I had no choice — I was looking for a job at a frantic pace.

Review
My experience at Beetroot Academy was very positive and productive. During this time, for more than a month, I was able to master the basic elements of working in Figma, which was an important step in my professional development. I continue to develop actively, learning new features and techniques. I am grateful for the opportunity to study in such a professional environment and for the support of my teachers and fellow students.

Review
Before the courses at the academy, I worked as a Customer Support Team Lead in a product company. At that time, I had a master's degree in philology, specialising in oriental languages. Since I had no professional development, I understood that this was different from what I wanted to do in the future. But everything changed thanks to studying at Beetroot Academy. I read a lot of specialised literature and searched for information about the Project Manager profession. But I understood that I would not be able to structurally and qualitatively master the basics of this profession on my own. I was choosing among several schools, but on the website of the Beetroot Academy, I found information about the course, which immediately caught my attention. Before studying, I expected we would be taught a lot of theoretical material. But the excellent teacher Oleksiy Kravchenko told us a lot about how everything works in practice and always motivated and helped us. I am very grateful to him for that. I have been working as a project manager at University for about 1.5 years, so studying helped me a lot. I had been looking for a job for about six months; sometimes, I stopped the search for a while, and sometimes I turned down several companies because the conditions of cooperation did not suit me. The most challenging thing for me in this process was the need for more professional experience. I was repeatedly told at interviews that the employer liked me and I had the necessary knowledge, but it would be better if I had at least six months of experience. It helped me; I always honestly said I don't know everything or have practice, but I'm a fast learner and ready to invest time in my development.
