Will AI take away jobs from IT specialists?😳
Well... Only partially.
There are still specialists who cannot be replaced by Artificial Intelligence.

So who are the lucky ones?
All those who think wider than just creating standard test cases or doing other routine tasks.

Neural networks will never be able to substitute a real experienced professional who is capable of:
📌analyzing the situation;
📌finding solution approaches to non-standard problems;
📌assessing the correctness of one or another task;
📌creating new strategies or action plans;
📌communicating with colleagues with an individual approach.

All these skills are not inborn and can be improved, so that’s why it is important to invest in self-development rather than worrying about AI influence. Moreover, it is also important to learn how you can use AI in order to save time&effort and improve your results😉

Is it enough to complete only once course in order to start working in the IT industry? Both yes and no🤔

Why so?

The study program is filled with all required theoretical and practical materials which should be mastered by the beginner before they start working for IT company. Our trainers and curators make sure that every student completes the course with such a level of knowledge that is sufficient for employment.
So why a single program may be not enough?🙂

The IT industry is an extremely dynamic field that constantly evolves. Both beginners and senior-level specialists should always dedicate time for self-development and following the updates of the industry so that they don’t get stuck on the same level.
Education in TechMission Academy grants you all the basic hard&soft skills, practice on real projects, full-time support of curators and trainers, detailed answers to all your questions, and help with the path “from 0 to employment”. But it doesn’t mean you should stop here😌

As any other industry, IT requires constant certification training so if a specialist wants to be successful, it is required to find the ways to get new skills and experience🤩

You may think it is not OK to hear that you need to learn how to Google during the course.
“Why should you look for something when curators can easily submit you the ready material?” 🤔

Of course, our team is interested in bringing the biggest value to our students and resolving their problems. We always try to provide as detailed answers as possible to most requests 🔥

BUT

A few studying months will pass very rapidly and a specialist-beginner may be lost in all the odds and ends of the IT world. It is impossible to get everything during the course and you will definitely have to face new challenges 🙌🏻

That is when the 21st century skill comes into action 💪🏻

When you understand how to form a search request and know where to find, your problem will be solved much faster.
The IT industry evolves dynamically, it is important to always watch out for changes and learn something new. No matter who you are, designer, recruiter, or QA engineer, you should not be afraid of searching for information, finding answers, and learning how to get what you exactly need 🤩

This skill will definitely help all beginners, that’s why you should always listen to the recommendation “Try googling!” 😎

A bug is an error or defect in the program, website, or application that causes malfunctioning and/or incorrect work results🤔

A feature is a new function or characteristic of the program that was previously not released and that is enhancing the work of the program.

How to differentiate them?👉🏻👉🏻👉🏻

For sure, fear is the main obstacle to reaching your goals. But don’t forget that you can master your emotions and find a way to live with them in harmony 🤝

The most important is to tune yourself to the steady rhythm, realizing what you want to get and assessing all the risks that are caused by fears.
Would you settle for less than you deserve? I think not. So it is time to take a bigger responsibility and start creating the future you dreamed about 🔥

This is exactly what our students did when they completed their study and started working for top-tier IT companies.

Nowadays, social network profiles can truly be called a person’s business card. 🧑🏻‍💻

We got used to demonstrate our life special moments, describe our daily plans and share our thoughts with subscribers and friends💭

But how can this impact on employment? 🤔

You may probably not know, but you can create a psychological portrait of the person based on the Instagram, Facebook and other social networks✅

🔸Photos and images. First of all, your main profile picture should correlate with the type of a social network. If it is Instagram, you can select any usual and non-repulsive picture of your face📷 Whereas on Linkedin it is recommended to use more official and rigorous photo since you are here to establish business connections primarly. Bikini pictures won’t work❌

🔸Etiquette. If you appear in the middle of agressive discussions or quarrels, this won’t be a good sign for your profile and will have a negative impact on recruiter’s first impression. Of course, you can express your thoughts, but it is recommended to abide the communication norms. Misbehavior reflects you as a conflict person and leads to a rapid end of the interviewing process or business cooperation☝🏻

🔸Information. It is recommended to share only true and verified information. Don’t overestimate your skills and experience. Recruiters may easily distinguish untruthful information during the interviewing process 🤝🏻

However, it’s not that bad in general. If you are an active user of social networks and have an interesting content, sharing your expertise and bringing value to people, it will work for you in the best way🚀

Such pages attract employer’s attention and demonstrate that you are an upstanding candidate for this job😎👍🏻

Who is IT recruiter?
Recruiter is a specialist that is looking for talented workers and closes vacancies for the company. ✅

Business success relies heavily on recruiters as they communicate with future employees and should leave a good impression about the employer🚀

Here’s the list of duties for most of IT recruiters:

🔸candidate portraying;
🔸develop search strategy;
🔸describing and posting vacancies;
🔸CV and portfolio analysis;
🔸manual candidates search;
🔸preparing and conducting interviews;
🔸collecting and checking recommendations;
🔸creating and issuing job offers to successful candidates;

Shortly speaking, the work starts from posting a job and finishes by a job offer 🧑🏻‍💻

Do you think you have organisational skills, the ability to communicate with people and willingness to take this position? 😎

There are two types of software testing: manual and automated🙌🏻

You may have already guessed that manual testing done be a human. While automated testing is done by software by means of running scripts👨🏻‍💻

Can automated testing substitute manual completely? Absolutely no, it is impossible to automate without skills and knowledge of manual testing.

Usually, automated testing is implemented at big and stable projects with set of well-known functionalities. If the software is new, it is not recommended to rush with automated tests since the functionality might change dramatically multiple times and you’ll have to rewrite scripts every time👌🏻

Therefore, it is really important to know where to implement automated scripts and where to go with the manual testing🦾

QA is not just testing software for various defects and bugs. It is a fullscale preparation of the product for usage. Hence, every software tester should have a set of ‘assistants’ that will help them with tasks✅

Let’s see what might typically be used:

🔸TimeTracker – will help to log the time spent and monitor effectiveness. With the help of this tool you can clearly see how much time was spent on each task.

🔸MindMap – our brain is not always ready to accept information as a table or text, you can visualize it. This is a great way to structure tasks, thoughts and plans. With the help of such maps, you can reproduce the sequence of actions, work stages and even test plan.

🔸Checklists – a simple and effective way to order repetitive actions and to verify yourself. The work will be done twice faster if you know the sequence of actions. You can either use already existing checklists or create your own. One of the most popular checklisting tools is TestRail. It is an online service that allows you to create lists, save results and share them with the team.
GreenShot – one of the most important tools since you need to take screenshots during testing. It is a 100% free tool and it does the job.

🔸Free Screen – the tool that is also required pretty much for every QA specialist to record screen videos. Alternatives: Video Recorder and Ashampoo Snap.
