Nayeli Dominguez
UX Designer @ 24 Seven Talent
CJ mentorship helped boost her confidence and her traction
“I spent almost a year looking for a job before I joined CJ. There’s so much info on the internet I didn’t know what to do in order to land a job. I landed my dream job 3 months into CJ. I was able to get the right guidance and confidence to interview thanks to Avocademy.”
Kira O.
UX Strategist @ Comcast
CJ job search helped prepared her for tough interviews
“Before CJ, I was enrolled in Google’s UX Design Certification
program with the expectation of landing a role after completion, but
when I finished, I honestly didn’t feel confident enough to begin
applying to UX roles.
When enrolled in CJ, I felt more confident looking for a UX role
because of the targeted preparation and direct mentorship. I was
more equipped for the job search process and all the roller coaster
of emotions that came with it. If I had a question throughout the
application process, or needed help preparing for an interview, or
just wanted someone to check over an email before I sent it, I knew
I had someone in my corner, and it made a world of a difference!”
Andjela M.
UX Designer @ Project Canary
CJ projects helped her portfolio stand out to recruiters
“I began my initial job search with some prior design experience, a
bootcamp education, and a bootcamp case study. No one was interested
in hiring me with the portfolio I had. I joined CJ to enhance my
skills and portfolio and to work on real client projects.
After completing CJ, I reapplied for jobs with my new resume and
portfolio, now full of real projects. With a hundred applications, I
started receiving requests for interviews and I landed my first job
in 2-3 months. I’ve been working as a full time designer since and
that’s in big part to the CJ program. “
George Yang
UX Designer @ KW Management & Consulting
CJ interview prep helped him refine his portfolio walkthroughs
“I really appreciated the 1:1 mentor support throughout CJ especially as I was interviewing and prepping for case study walkthroughs. I definitely would have felt a lot more lost with the job search process without doing CJ”
