I started my internship as a QA specialist yesterday, I am already loving it

[@alexusadays]

Nice! Congrats!

[@SAVAGE00021]

can I join there also ? I want to learn and start my career as QA :) @emircs

How did you get your internship ?

[@DevlogBill]

I just heard about QA Testers, and I just finished watching your video. From what you mentioned it sounds like QA Testing is a great way to learn about the I.T. profession and sounds stable. I actually like Software Development because I've been enjoying making things for myself. But I hear making things as a hobby is completely different from making things within a professional setting. I did a bit of research I heard about something called Selenium used as a tester. I am still learning about the tools of a QA Tester, but I noticed on the job boards you use Selenium with either Java, Python, Ruby or maybe JavaScript? I live in a big city, and I am guessing Java would be the best language to start off with. But my skills are mostly in JavaScript. Does the programming language really matter? Can you choose any programming language which works with Selenium? Or is Java the way to go? Thanks Alex?

[@alexusadays]

Go with playwright as a testing framework it works with js well. Also checkout my channel’s playlist on testing, you will find a lot of info there.

[@DevlogBill]

@@alexusadays Thanks, I will check out your content on this channel and learn more about testing. I will also Google Playwright for JavaScript. Thanks for the information I appreciate it.

Now you can get 160-200K for mid-senior level only in a few top companies. Indian recruiters cut your salary up to 20-35% for mid-senior level engineers paying 90- 110K.

[@alexusadays]

Agree there are a lot less 200k jobs on the market right now

[@Dahdkidd]

Thank you for your information.

[@alexusadays]

Glad it was helpful!

[@viniciusgomes1737]

Lovely video!

[@alexusadays]

Thank you!

[@purplevanilla]

Compared to other IT jobs like data scientist, software engineer, cloud architect, Information security analyst, etc... Is it hard to pursue to be a QA engineer?

[@alexusadays]

I think QA is relatively easier to enter than other IT jobs, something even easer would be support or general tech.

[@purplevanilla]

@@alexusadays Thats all I needed to hear, thanks man 🙏

[@irel4ever]

Was wondering what was the best way to just get your feet wet after initial training. Thank you. Great content.

[@alexusadays]

Glad you liked it!

[@MyrnaDeJesus]

@irel4ever Certain boot camps, such as Careerist, offer a comprehensive internship program that begins immediately after the training/lessons period. That's an exceptional way to earn solid experience before moving into a contract or permanent role.

[@maneesharupasinghe8328]

Great explanation!!..

[@alexusadays]

Glad you think so!

[@DSNCB919]

Id rather do the design and implementation instead of test it

[@radugheorghiu5635]

Hi there, is ISTQB certification a must? For my country, is pretty expensive so I was wondering if its worth it :)

[@alexusadays]

I think it depends on where you will work. ISTQB is not required in USA

[@iiHazmat]

[@alexusadays]

There is a JavaScript playlist on my channel and how to become qa playlist. You could start with those

[@earlem9771]

What about the software tester jobs without becoming an engineer? Are there any possibilities there?

[@alexusadays]

Titles QA Engineer and tester are someone interchangeable in USA startup field

[@michaeloquendo9087]

Should i do it

[@alexusadays]

Why not?

[@viniciusgomes1737]

Hey Alex, do you think it is feasible to become a QA guy coming from a tech writing background. Maybe even try to migrate inside the company I currently work at?

[@alexusadays]

Yeah, you should definitely try it

[@chavomisterioso]

in the past I have trained people with no experience and only a degree in biology or arts. You just gotta get in with minimum pay, learn and move your way up

[@zwartepeat3552]

I'm in QA and I have an unrelated degree, it is easier to get in than if you try to become a dev
