Testimonials from our students
I was in high school when I started thinking about a career in programming. When I was in 12th grade I
applied for a summer internship and the company offered me an internship during spring holiday. I got
hired soon after I graduated high school.
Andrei Vasilache
Software Development Engineer
In 2019, I started my career in kinesitherapy and it didn’t feel like the right career choice. So, I downloaded learning resources from ASSIST’s website, and I started learning. I trained myself to think only about what I had to learn and never stress about what I did not know.
Lacramioara Chirieac
QA Tester
There are so many opportunities in the software industry, including for people that are not the programming type of person. As an assistant project manager, I can say that I have a career which is very suitable for me.
Raluca Cohal
Assistant Project manager
In my first year at the University, one of the best decisions of my life was to go to ASSIST Open Doors 2019. I participated to an internship, among awesome mentors. But not everything depends on others. You make your own success.
