Hey Josh, you are correct! Unfortunately fake it until you make is a common thing on the market.

Right now we are you can our 6th birthday celebration discounted prices here 🫶🏼 codemify.com/codemify-hb-offer

That is correct :)

I would say 25-30%

@@Codemifyis that percentage for people new to the field? Or veterans? Thanks

@@638DESTRUCTION that is a rough estimate of remote jobs vs hybrid/on-site. That’s was your question, right?

I'm good. Thank you for your offer :)

Glad you enjoyed it! Keep us updated with the next interviews :)

@@CodemifySure😊

My pleasure :)

My greatest pleasure!

Learn from KZbin the test automation. You do not have to be good at coding to do QA automation. Maybe focus on UI and API test automation using the languages with more "simple" syntax, like JavaScript or Python. You can start practicing it as a side project (on top of the project you are manually testing). You can use tools and frameworks like Selenium, Cypress, Playwright, etc.). Once you are confident and have a working automation project you can discuss this as an addition to your current tasks in your project and ask for a pay raise for this. Of course manual QA still will be part of your daily job (and personally I think that nothing will replace human's manual testing in the nearest future) but automation can help to reduce time of testing some parts of the application. Ask AI for help with writing some tests and try to understand whole code it provides, how and why it works (or does not work sometimes 😅). This way you should be able to gain new skills, enjoy more what you are doing and increase your salary at your current employer or earn more with side projects. Never give up. Good luck! 🤜🤛

The better you are with coding the more likely your will be higher. There two ways to go: 1. Learn on your own 2. Take a course with mentors to teach you First one is cheaper but more time consuming and windier. The second will have the cost but much faster

I'm doing QA for the last 15 years. It's been a constant try to automate all. Not possible right now. It takes more time to automate 100%, rather than automate 50-70% and use manual qa

Hey Karim, good question! Nowadays the market is someone spread apart with all jobs. I can not say go to testing or go to cloud industry because there are more jobs. But I can definitely say that becoming a QA Engineer is much easier then 99% of professions in IT. That's why a lot of people are into it to get started. It's sort of a back door to IT as from there, it will be easier to move any other position.

Sure. Feel free to schedule a free consultation with me calendly.com/codemify/consultation

Good luck with the interview! Looking forward to hearing about your offer

😹🙌

Thank you for the feedback, Natalie 🙌

Hey John, good Q. Looks like there is a bit of confusion. Manual QA is one thing, but Automation QA is a different thing. Although yes, you can become a QA Engineer generally

@@Codemify Thanks! Would it be better to have some certificates for it (QA tester) before jumping into applications?

@@john6283 Mostly it’s not needed. In US we only care about knowledge and experience. As Elon said: if you code well after high school, I’ll rather hire you than a guy with degree but worse coding skills

@@Codemify that's cool, mostly here in PH needs some certificate and 2-3 exp for that, haha they are not living in the same quote as Elon does.

@@john6283 haha are you taking about Philippines?

When you sign up for Codemify qa BootCamp, you start your internship from day 1. That's a difference 💛🖤

It’s never too late to

I’m glad you are enjoying QA SDET interview preparation content 🙌

My greatest pleasure! I've mentoring future QA Engineers and tech specialists for the last 6+ years. It's a pleasure to help people to get into tech

Glad it was helpful!

Physically it is possible. And I had a few graduates who did land such a job for US from another country. But it's more of an exception than a rule

Absolutely, the more you learn the better! I think this guy taught hundreds if not thousands of students already and might have an idea of what he is talking about :)

@@Codemifyfair point!

Absolutely!

They are acting like a couple with all the tackled back and forth aswell :)

lol

Our pleasure! More coming soon 🔥

You can’t become a QA Automation Engineer without learning manual testing first. As you need to know what to automate, in which priority, types of testing etc.
