Pros

Incredibly warm, welcoming, and supportive staff. You’re surrounded by people who genuinely care and want to see you grow. Amazing cohort environment, we grew together, encouraged each other, and I’ll never forget it. Great focus on professional development, soft skills, and real-world scenarios. I left feeling more confident in the direction I’m heading.

Cons

I wish the program was a bit longer, especially since I got placed in the simulated internship part. Would’ve loved more hands-on training for technical skills like IT support.
