Hi Tim! Could you tell us more about your career shift?

​

"Sure, I remember that I joined TechLabs to switch careers. My personal journey in the tech world began almost a year ago, during my master's degree. I had the opportunity to develop an app, and that's when I knew I wanted to go into software development. I began looking for ways to learn software development and discovered an online boot camp."

​

That's impressive! So, how has TechLabs impacted your journey?

​

"I saw TechLabs as an opportunity to further boost this transition. After a project phase and a few months working in the management team, I received a job offer as a software developer. The people I met and the connections I made here helped me a lot. I got the job because of someone here at TechLabs. Our mentor, Nils, introduced me to his network."

​

Could you tell us a bit about your project during the TechLabs program?

​

"We developed a platform called Mentor Match. It was a platform where people could register as a mentor or mentee and they would be matched based on their profile data. It was a great portfolio project for my future applications."

​

Do you think TechLabs was pivotal in securing your job?

​

"Yes, I think so. The connections I made, the experience of working on a project as a team, and the opportunity to develop a portfolio project all played a role in my career transition."

Thanks for sharing your experience!
