SU5 Tell me about yourself

[Olesia_Vulf]

My name is Olesia.

I graduated Zaporizhzhia National University. I have Muster degree at the Management of Foreign Economic Activities.

I worked as sales manager, manager and administrator in the service sector.
Last year I immigrated to Canada. The first and the only work here is at the factory, as an inspector and packer of the products.

I want to start the new life in the new country with the new profession and ability to realize my full potential.

Being very honest, just for Mikhail Portnov school, I chose QA because my husband told me (he knows me better).
But for the answer at the interview: it suits my temperament and the way of thinking. It means that as an employee I will be able to give more dedication to the job that will be useful for the company. My skills, habits and creative way of thinking can help to extend the review on the problems. In our rapidly developing world, I want to take part in its improvement.

In five years I see myself as a respected employee of a great company. Possibly as a tester with extensive experience in manual and automated testing. Or as a specialist who is responsible for developing and optimization of the QA department.

[Dan Kryzhanovskyi]

Hello everyone!
My name is and I'm from Ukraine. I'm 22 years old.
I finished Vasilkyv high school in 2018. I took the CELTA course (a course in teaching English to adults) and became a Cambridge certified English teacher. At the moment, I'm working as a teacher.
Before that I worked as a barista in a cafe and as a newspaper delivery boy.
I'd like to change my career because in my present job I need to communicate with a big amount of people (students, their parents and so on). I consider myself as an introvert, that's why I think QA testing would suit me better.
In 5 years I see myself as a successful and expereinced QA tester who works with for American and European companies.

Hello everyone!

My name is Evgenia. I have a higher economic education. For about three years I worked a content-manager in a digital-agency. And 2 weeks ago me and my family moved to the USA (Dallas, Texas) from Russia.

I want to learn the profession of a QA-tester and later work in this specialty.

[julia.kuzm]

My name is Julia Kuzmenko. I recently graduated with a Bachelor's degree in computer engineering, where I gained hands-on experience in software development, proficient in HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Python, SQL, and RestAPI.

Throughout my academic journey and practical experiences as a developer, I discovered a strong passion for ensuring the quality and reliability of the applications I worked on. I've always spent extra time to guarantee that everything operates seamlessly because, for me, the quality of the end product is very important.

With my recent relocation to the USA, I made a definitive decision to start my career as a Software Development Engineer in Test (SDET). This decision aligns perfectly with my belief in the critical role that quality assurance plays in software development.

In the next five years, I envision (see) myself as a proficient and highly skilled specialist in the field of QA. My goal is to continue learning, expand my knowledge and skills, and stay up-to-date with the latest testing methods. I want to be a valuable team member and contribute to the development of robust software products, ensuring that the products we create meet user expectations in terms of functionality, reliability, and user experience.

[Lala]

Good day to whoever is reading this,
I am Lala, a digital illustrator and furniture maker from Philadelphia. Even though I got my BA in Linguistics more than five years ago, I chose to devote my life to something else. Since 2018, I have successfully managed to combine the two passions of my life, painting and furnite making. Running our family business 24/7 (we had a woodworking shop) along with taking digital art commissions taught me at least three things: (1) to cherish quality over quantity, (2) always find a creative solution that would satisfy both our customers and us, and (3) never at any time be intimidated by hardships. I would love to be able to travel more -- and that is exactly the kind of freedom that QA and dyadya Misha's school can give me. That is why I am determined to become a top-notch quality assurance tester in the nearest future.

"Tell me about yourself"

1. I gratuated from the Armenian State Pedagogical University with a BA degree in Child Development and Psychology

2. I worked as a tutor teaching Armenian, Russian, Math and English. I worked as an interpreter for the US governments and I worked as a consultant helping Russian speaking US residents in naturalization process( becoming US citizens).
3.After living in Los Angeles for 15 years, I finally moved down to Orange County where I met a woman at a Russian networking event. We started to talk and her story changed my life. She knew nothing about QA, computers or anything IT related. She took Mikhail Portnov's course with no experience or any technical skills and after completing the course she landed a job as a QA tester at a great company and she is very happy with her current position and her life overall. It got me excited and I decided to take this course as well.
I see myself in this field in a managerial position within 2-4 years of employment with a right company.

[Darina Alaguzova]

Hey there!
My name is Darina. I graduated from university and master degree in logistics engineer. I have worked in different fields and in different position, but the biggest experience I have in Insurance industry. I use to work as a supply chain manager as well but I understand I don't like this profession even if I studied for it 6 years.
When I moved in USA I start work for the Insurance agency because I already had experience in this field, but I want to change my profession and start to search what I like. In nowadays everything goes to the IT industry and I decide to start from small steps and become the QA manager. I want to learn automatic testing in the near future and move further in IT industry.

In the future, I would like to become a game designer or product manager in a number of companies. And QA, as practice has shown, is a good way to integrate into IT

[Melnyk]

Hello everyone! I'm Serhii. I've moved to United States with my family from Ukraine almost five years ago after I won a GreenCard lottery. I've started my working career in Ukraine in 2009 right after being graduated from Interregional Academy of Personnel Management. It was Master's degree in Law. My first job was position of legal counsel in local Utility company. It was great time and good chance to apply my knowledge on practice. I didn't stay there for long and after year I went to the Ukrainian capital Kyiv where are much more oportunities for career growth and self-development. At that time I had already decided that I wanted to become an attorney and in the future I would like to practice criminal law defense. But first according to Ukrainian law I had to get experience as associate attorney. That's what I did. After working for few years as an associate litigation attorney in 2016 I finally got my attorney license and became a member of Ukrainian Bar Association. But everything changed when I found out that I won the GreenCard lottery. Considering the difficult political and economic situation in Ukraine, my wife and I decided to try to start a new life in America. So we've moved here in 2019. Same year I've started my own small business related to residential interior trim which is in demand here. At the same time, I was looking for an opportunity to find a job similar to the one I had been doing in Ukraine over the past 10 years. A job that will be related to studying, processing and preparation of documentation, finding solutions, solving problems and which will help me to improve my English skills close to a native level. Then I've found out about QA and Portnov Computer School. This profession seemed to me exactly what I needed. So I decide to try myself in this field. In five years I hope I can become skilled QA Engineer with deep knowledge of automation.
