When I started my program at Portnov, I decided to save my review for this special day, the day I signed my first contract.\r
I started in the Summer. In October I got a 12-week internship. Today I started working for a company that produces risk management software.for Global 5000 enterprises. \r

This school gives you everything to start out as a software tester even if you don't have any IT background. I am, for instance, a former media professional. \r

The program is very short, so prepare to study a lot! Don't relay on in-class activities. Learn on your own, search, explore - do your homework. You'll be given all the necessary resources for that.\r
\r
You'll love this school and its staff: your instructors - Olga C., Olga K. and Mikhail; Galina, who will be helping you with your internship resume; Sofia, who - (be sure!) - will place you for an internship. When your program is over, you won't want to leave:)\r

I am still at Portnov, taking two advanced automation classes. I am also taking online programming classes at city college of San Francisco since I am planning on being an automation engineer. It is the Portnov school that helped me to define my long-term career goal.\r

Thank you very much for your help and support!
