[@brigs1856]

[@Khalid15325]

wow so glad found this channel, you're beautiful and inspiring.

[@mrzakhan7462]

Увидел вас,сразу понял что вы из наших,очень приятно что наши в ИТ идут

[@spacehint]

Ещё не далеко ушла) ноутбук сломался и тестирование показалось скучным; но может быть еще продолжу учить; как появится новый девайс

Cool job 👍😍

Hi zarina, could you give more details about your education process and interwove please? You've learned everything in 2,5 month? was that enough to get a QA tester job without nothing know about IT before? I am in a bootcamp for 3 months and Sql is too hard for me. Could you give more details about SQL as well please?

[@spacehint]

Hi, I didn't complete the course, so I don't know will my knowledges be enough to obtain the QA job or not. But the good part of my course was that if i study hard, they will help me to find the real project. And their customers will be aware that you are junior. I didn't study SQL and can't give any advices about it. I am still confused should i continue to explore testing or not, because most of the time I feel bored when fill up the Jira tickets or testing documentations)

If you want more excitement why not become a sky diving instructor​@@spacehint

[@muhammadzafar2470]

i'm front-end designer. i wanna start SQA automation. recently i used cypress and do some projects too. so can you tell me about the SQA Road map . from where i can start it ?

[@spacehint]

Hi, at this moment I am not able to build you a roadmap) I don't have enough knowledges for it. Meanwhile you can ask about it someone more senior in QA) also you can attend this online event at Andersen, maybe they can help you with a start t.me/andersen_courses/314

[@ratanrasaily4804]

Good

[@alinaakunova1316]

Привет Зарина . а почему перестали работать в качестве тестировщика ?

[@spacehint]

Привет, а я и не работала, а только отучилась, но дальше дело не пошло) базовая отговорка- не было своего ноута, реальность- без тестирования моя жизнь куда веселее) хотя головой я понимаю что в айти хорошие перспективы, любовь к авиации взяла свое🙃. Если будешь искать бесплатные курсы от копаний, также можешь обратить свое вниманием на Андерсен web.telegram.org/k/#@andersen_courses

[@alinaakunova1316]

Спасибо большое 👍и конечно надо всегда делать то что по душе.Успехов !

[@themasculineframe6880]

Thank you for your information beautiful. 🙏🏾

[@spacehint]

I hope it will help🙌🏻

[@Jaznye.]

Hey, I would like to have more info, Like how much they will pay you once you pass the test? They gave you an contract right away?

[@spacehint]

Before they accept you to the course, they will ask you on the interview what are you salary expectations for first 3 months, next period until 1 year, and period after 1 year of working.. so based on your answers they will make decision. but as I have seen in their advertisements in the first 3 months they pay around 500usd. As for the contract, they give it only if you successfully pass all the exams and interview with clients. As I haven’t reach this stage, and quit the course, I can’t answer exactly how soon they will provide the contract 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@jennybaquero443]

Hey Zarina! QQ - Do you think QA Manual is a good career still in 2023?

[@spacehint]

Hi Jenny, I am not an expert in testing so far) I don't think I can give the recommendations. But I have 1 friend from LA who has started her career from scratch last year, and she happily works remotely. And another girl who was my batchmate on this course is already working in a startup. So I guess it is better to rely on own preferences. I quit the course, because my laptop has broken, but maybe I will come back to it to refresh my memory).

[@shahanaazkaar1748]

I watched your video about assessment in Emirates Airlines i thought you failed to get job there.But now you are saying you were in Qatar airways i am confused whether you were failed after experience of Qatar Airways or what??

[@spacehint]

Yes, I failed after my experience with Qatar Airways, but I don’t think that it is the reason, why Emirates didn’t hire me. I have a few ex-colleagues from QA , who are flying now with Emirates.

[@Winniefhred]

Hi Zarina! Please is this a global opportunity or is it location based?

[@spacehint]

Hello, you can study and work remotely, so I would say it is global opportunity, but recently they have removed the direct link for applying. So if you are interested to join the trainings, find their Linkedin "a1qa" and look for intern vacancies🙌🏻

[@lailatafif7434]

thank y sooo much , i have a question about certificate of vaccination of covid19 it is important to take it with me in the interviews day ? and it is necessary after they accept me ? i hope you answer me plsss 🙏🙏 bcs i have certificate of exemtion from vaccination ,is that a problem or not ? pls i hope y answer me i really need

[@spacehint]

You’re welcome 🤍. If you have vacation certificate, than make copy of it, and have it on your smartphone. During the interview on the assessment day you will upload it into your account. If you don’t have the vaccination certificate, than you don’t need anything. In this case they will ask you you if you are willing to vaccinate from Covid. And you can do it later. To summarize don’t worry about vaccination passport) it will not affect your application in any way 👌. I hope I understood your question correctly, if not, you can clarify .

Is this training still on?

[@spacehint]

Usually they hire continuously, however they removed the direct link for application to the course from the website, so you can try to contact them via email (or fill up contact form). And also time by time they post training vacancy in their Linkedin. Search for a1qa.

[@spacehint]

Also you can check Andersen company, it is a link for Telegram channel t.me/andersen_courses/319 . They offer plenty of opportunities for Juniors🙌🏻

[@dhanvisrinamdam9198]

Is it english is enough for this course, or any other languages i have to learn

[@spacehint]

Explore the website, all the requirements are written. As for me I don’t know any programming languages, and that was ok 👌, just try to apply, they will tell you on the interview what they expect from you, and what you can expect from them)

[@ermant1311]

doesnt make sense..just a social marketing video..there are thousands of software testers in the field and they are experienced and also there are other hundred thousands of IT people who can start a career like this easily. Why they should be looking to train somebody with no experience . Totally fake
