Stefan Stantich is a successful story from the Computer Network and ITOps Academy who started his career as an IT Operations & Support Engineer at Qinshift.
Where did the desire to learn computer networks come from and why Qinshift academy?
I have always been interested in how the internet manages to connect the world, to bring the north and the south together, to be able to transmit information in a few seconds, to allow people from different parts of the world to meet and get closer. Qinshift Academy was my first choice of an academy that was rumored to be one of the better ones and offered an opportunity to start from scratch and build up. The very thought that there is an opportunity to start from scratch and strive for success led me to the situation of choosing the academy, but I was pleasantly surprised after experiencing the first few classes and noticed that a lot of effort and effort is put in by the trainers towards the students. You can say that the method is like adding fuel to a car, so that it does not stop before reaching its destination.
What was your biggest challenge?
The very beginning was a challenge for me, but it was quickly overcome by having phenomenal coaches who watched our growth and development and added additional tasks/challenges to us to reassure us of our abilities and not let us lose momentum.
How are you adjusting to the new work environment and what did the educational process of the academy prepare you for?
The very environment I am currently working in has allowed me to learn additional things about how IT works. Thanks to the academy, I was able to process and adapt them faster to succeed in my career.
Tips & tricks that you learned at the academy ?
The Academy taught me not to be afraid of new challenges/opportunities that will manifest on the road to success, but to seize the moment and conquer it. To have the habit of constantly learning, reading and keeping up-to-date on all new developments in information technology.
Visions and wishes for your new career
At the moment my vision is to gather experience and knowledge in a wider aspect of the IT industry, with which I can determine what career I would like to follow. At the moment I would not say that I have a certain direction because the technology itself is developing very quickly and contributes to many interests in different fields.
A message to future students:
To future students who will be part of Qinshift Academy, I would say to give one hundred percent initiative in studies and not be shy about questions, there is no such thing as a stupid question and there is no need to be shy. Once this becomes a habit, there will be no challenges in front of you that will pose a problem.
