Firstly, who is Ana?
Hi, I’m Ana, I’m 26 years old and I’m a technologist-engineer with a degree in Polymer Materials.
I can say that I am a persistent person with clearly defined goals. My free time is filled with hiking and camping because I am in love with nature. People around me describe me as a loud and fun person who enjoys spending quality time with loved ones.
How did the Software Testing Academy fit into your future career plans?
After several job changes in my profession, I realized that our market was not developed enough for what I envisioned as my dream job. That was one of the reasons why I decided to make a complete career change. In search of a profession that would provide me with continuous self-upgrading and opportunities for advancement and development, I did some research and decided on the Software Testing Academy at Qinshift Academy (former SEDC). Additionally, the change from a standard QA/QC Engineer to a QA Software Tester can bring better professional development, especially for us. These few things were crucial for my “manual to digital” transfer.
How would you describe the experience from the academy?
This was a big challenge for me, which enabled me to make the desired change even earlier than expected. A great experience followed by selfless support and knowledge from the mentors, as well as great commitment
What challenges do you face and what does the opportunity to work from your home represent for you?
Every day in my work experience as a QA tester has been filled with different challenges. The very flexibility in this field is one of the things that attracted me, because it allows me to have the freedom to work from home and to be able to use creativity at the highest level.
How does the knowledge you acquired during the Academy help you in your daily work duties?
To begin with, he helped me find the job I wanted. The experience and knowledge gathered from the academy helped me to fit into the work much easier and upgrade myself.
A message to future students of the Software Testing Academy?
My message to anyone who is not fulfilled in their workplace is to be encouraged and take the first step.
The next group for the Software Testing Academy is starting November 5th.
Apply and become a Software Tester.
