    The personalised support and community-driven ethos offered by WithYouWithMe, particularly through the Discord channel, have been instrumental in my journey. I appreciate the practical approach to learning, with exercises designed to simulate real-world scenarios, further enhancing my skill set. Now, as a data analyst, I view myself as a modern-day detective, tasked with extracting meaningful conclusions from vast amounts of information. The prospect of contributing to high-impact solutions for societal challenges, such as improving access to education, fuels my enthusiasm.

    I felt that the training was very well-structured and detailed. Despite having a technical background, I found myself learning new things in every course I came across. It was a great learning experience, and I couldn’t recommend it enough to other jobseekers.

    It’s amazing how tech only continues to grow and expand with time. When you’re working in tech, you need to be able to adapt to all the changes and that’s something that really excites me. It’s a never-ending journey of knowledge.

    My first contact with WithYouWithMe was instrumental in helping me find my way forward through the Service Desk career pathway and was able to match my strengths and weaknesses to a job and a team that she knew I would succeed with. I now have a career, a direction in life and work for a company that not only understands me, but also accepts me for who I am, flaws and all.

    From Kindergarten Teacher to Data Analyst
    Quote mark - light purple
    After about 9 years I was losing my connection to teaching and I was looking for a change when a good friend of mine mentioned the company WithYouWithMe.

    I had always longed for a job I was passionate about but didn’t know how I could possibly change careers and certainly didn’t think I could break into a lucrative tech career. When I started the WithYouWithMe program, that all changed. I completed free online training and very quickly received a call about a role. I interviewed and landed my first job in tech, working as a Data Analyst in the federal Government. That was almost two years ago – and I’ve never been more motivated or fulfilled. I’m really passionate about sharing this experience with people.
