Study Cases

Hello, I am Liam, a North American student majoring in design. My career path has not been easy. I worked as a graphic designer in a traditional clothing company, but I gradually felt that the ceiling of the design field was getting lower and lower, and the stable salary was not enough to support my daily life. At the same time, my classmates around me chose to go back to their home countries because of employment difficulties, but I didn't want to give up just like that. I wanted to stay in the U.S. After all, my parents had spent so much money on training me for so many years, and I didn't want to let them down. After all, my parents have spent so much money to raise me for so many years, and I don't want to disappoint them. And my own specialty has a foundation in HI/UX, so I should have little problem to be a front-end development engineer. So I decided to let go of my past job and start afresh as a front-end development engineer. However, the challenge came along - although I didn't switch to a new career with zero foundation, I had no...

Hello everyone, I am a non-cs to code 24 ng. the reason for code change is very simple: I desire a higher salary, broader career development space, their logic ability is not bad it , and interested in programming and technology, it is determined to embark on the road of code change. When I first started to switch to code, I knew almost nothing about programming. For me, programming language is like a sky book. Initially, I chose to learn it on my own, through video tutorials and books I found online, and my progress was very slow. Especially when I was faced with a large number of algorithmic problems, I felt like I couldn't keep up with the progress at all. Even though I spent a lot of time brushing up on the problems, I couldn't get over the hump, and the quality of my brushing wasn't high, and at one point I wanted to give up. Finally, when I was brushing the website, I saw this Drill Insight job hunting organization, which can provide Al and real project practical courses for 0 basics. I was originally a bit resistant to this kind of organization, feeling that it was...

When I first started looking for a job, I thought that all I lacked was the number of questions, so I went crazy, hoping to make up for my lack of skills through the number of questions, but I always felt that I was missing a real breakthrough point. Although I have a basic knowledge of CS, I have never had any internship experience, and I have never really prepared for an interview. Initially I tried to brush up on my own questions and submit my resume, but the result was that my resume was brushed off in the first round, and I had very few chances to get an interview. I realized how difficult it was to find a job in the U.S., but I didn't want to go back to my home country, and my parents were pressuring me, so I was so anxious that I couldn't sleep the whole night. Finally, I turned to my senior, who recommended the Drill Insight program. At first, I was just trying it out, but I found that Drill Insight not only helped me improve my programming skills, but also helped me modify/optimize my resmue and mock, which provided me with...

The threshold of the big banks is really high, before also put the word that, in addition to NYU and CU, other schools we do not want, can only say that fortunately buddies are NYU, on this are almost overturned. I'm glad I did the java project comprehensively enough, although the time is a little longer, the price is a little higher, a little more homework, but it's okay, can let me get an offer, that's a good class. I graduated in January this year, I thought with NYU's background plus a TT intern, should be in the job market mess kill, offer to get soft, the results of the sea cast 1 month, to get the hand of the interviews a hand to count over, the offer is a no, I feel the ideal and the reality of the huge gap. I had no choice but to seek help on the network, after many contacts, I added a Drill Insight of a teacher, I know that the other party is an organization, but as long as he can convince me to spend money, so what? I had a long chat with the teacher, who helped me analyze my job...

The original goal was to pursue a career in data science (DS). However, after four months of searching on LinkedIn, I found no opportunities. The requirements for DS roles are either a PhD or five years of experience, which is unattainable for someone like me with no experience. So, I decided to shift toward software development engineering (SDE). Switching from data science to development isn’t easy. Moving from Python to Java is a big leap. The complexity of the task increased a lot. At first, I was learning blindly. I didn’t know what to focus on. Sometimes, even simple questions would take me the whole day to figure out. And when the question changed slightly, I wouldn’t know how to approach it. This was frustrating, and I began to doubt if I was the right fit for the job. Then, a friend recommended Drill Insight to me. I visited their official website and found that their TCS program seemed perfect for someone like me. I had some basic knowledge, but I needed guidance. I decided to send in my resume to give it a try. The next day, I got a call from Mr. Alvin. He talked to me about...

I have been attending Drill Insight classes for more than two months now. The biggest lesson I’ve learned is that whenever I consider giving up and returning to my home country, the teachers always reassure me. They tell me it’s possible to find a job in the U.S. and encourage me to believe in both them and myself. They remind me not to give up so easily. Their support isn’t just in the form of words. It’s also shown through their dedication to the program. I chose Drill Insight because they advertised an interview-oriented approach. I was skeptical, wondering which organization would be bold enough to claim that interviews were the ultimate goal and that they were willing to be held accountable. It turns out I was wrong. They are capable and confident enough to back up their claims. Drill Insight is affiliated with WVU, a fairly general school. They've been involved in various school projects and participated in Boot camps to enhance resumes. I initially aimed to stay in North America and pursue a career as an SDE. However, after submitting countless resumes with no response, I reached out to employees at large companies for feedback. They casually asked...

Why Did I Sign Up for a Job Search Agency? I signed up because I knew I didn’t have a prestigious school background, no internship at a big company, and no real project experience. I realized that with my current situation, I wouldn’t be able to land an internship at a large company. So, I decided to look for a smaller company as a backup. However, internships in small companies offer little learning and mainly involve repetitive tasks. I knew I wouldn’t get into a large company, so I heard about Drill Insight through a senior. Although I checked out their website, I still had many questions. For example: Do their classes really support both online and offline formats? Are the teachers responsible? After a month of research and communication with Drill Insight, I became confident that it was a good fit. I attended a trial class, and after much thought, I enrolled in their TCS program using the money I earned from my small company internship. I’m balancing work and study, hoping this program will help me land a job at a big company. My Experience with Drill Insight The first thing I noticed in the TCS program was...

I first gained some basic knowledge of programming during my undergraduate years. At that time, I was only exposed to a small amount of basic programming, just enough to know a little more than nothing. Later, during the employment winter, I decided to switch careers and learn to code. On the recommendation of a senior, I joined an IT job-seeking organization for Java training. I noticed many differences between this organization and others. For example, the instructors here provided personalized learning paths based on each student's background. They started from the basics and gradually built up the lessons. They didn’t strictly follow textbooks or rush through the material just to keep up with the schedule. They cared about the students' understanding and progress. In the beginning, I felt overwhelmed and frustrated because the projects at Drill Insight were real, hands-on tasks. However, these projects helped me learn actual development processes and technologies. The project topics were diverse, and they really helped me master key skills. Whenever I felt stuck, the instructor patiently provided 1-on-1 counseling. If I didn’t understand something or had trouble solving a problem, they would explain it repeatedly, helping me absorb the information step by step. They...

I majored in English in my undergraduate program. After graduation, I became frustrated because I couldn’t find a job. I decided to change my career and seek help from a job search agency. Now, I’ve successfully landed a job at Google! I owe it to Drill Insight for helping me get the offer! Before I Found This Job Search Agency Before joining Drill Insight, I was a complete beginner. I didn’t know where to start or where to go next. Every day, I was just brushing up on useless questions and memorizing answers. I didn’t understand how to analyze time complexity and space complexity. I worked through a small set of 100 questions, but I couldn’t make any progress. I felt like I was just going through the motions, over and over again, with no results. Just when I was about to give up, a senior I knew noticed how bad my situation was. He encouraged me to try a job search agency he knew. At first, I was hesitant. I thought these institutions might not be reliable. I also worried about my weak foundation and whether I would be able to keep up with the lessons. I wasn’t sure...

After graduating from NYU, I struggled because I was too distracted. During school, my professional knowledge was not solid. I mostly played around and only studied for exams at the last minute. I barely passed. Later, when I started looking for internships, I realized my resume was almost empty. I applied to over 500 companies but didn’t receive any invitations. Then, an alumnus introduced me to Drill Insight, a job search organization. They had a TCS program in securities trading. There were very few updated resources for companies like Goldman Sachs or JPMorgan Chase, and this program matched my needs. So, I signed up. In the program, the instructor was very responsible. He followed my project closely. My task was challenging: "design and build a simulated stock trading system." The system had to receive real-time trading data and make trading decisions quickly. My main focus was on developing trading algorithms, processing real-time data streams, and improving system performance. Through this project, I learned how to build an efficient and stable trading system. I also gained a better understanding of how financial markets operate. During the interview, I faced many technical problems, involving data structures, algorithm design, and system architecture. When...

At first, I was really interested in the industry, but as an undergraduate, I couldn’t go straight to a master’s program, which made finding a job really hard. The chemistry field isn’t very friendly to undergrads, and the GPA requirements are pretty high. I realized I needed a master’s degree to have a shot, so I decided to switch to programming and stay in the U.S.  Although I knew switching careers would require learning a lot of new things, I felt confident in my logical thinking and didn’t worry too much. But in hindsight, I was a bit overconfident, and I ended up learning that lesson the hard way.  I started by learning programming through online materials. I learned basic Java and watched various pre-recorded courses, staying up late doing exercises. I thought I was doing well, so I started solving problems on platforms. However, I quickly realized that without following a structured course, it was really hard to solve problems on my own. Despite this, I pushed forward, analyzing problems and solutions.  When I started applying for jobs, I realized I had a major problem: just solving problems without understanding the underlying logic wasn’t going to get me far....

Let me tell you how I got an offer from Goldman Sachs! I have a finance degree from Boston College and a master’s degree in computer science from Northwestern University. There is a big gap between me and students who studied computer science in undergrad. They gained a lot of project experience, but I had almost none. My boyfriend suggested I should do internships and work on projects to improve my background so I could get a job after graduation. Nowadays, most companies look for internship or project experience on resumes. At that time, I looked at many bootcamps but chose Drill Insight’s Trading Capturing System project for two main reasons. First, since I studied finance, I wanted to work for a fintech company, and Drill Insight’s project matched my career goals. Second, the project was created with Goldman Sachs and JPMorgan Chase, and Goldman Sachs is my dream company, so it caught my attention. The project involved building a stock trading system. Its best feature was that it simulates a real work environment and the challenges people face on the job. For someone like me, with little hands-on experience, it was a great chance to learn. Also, the instructor...
