From Retail to Tech: A Career Transformation
John Anderson
Software Engineer, TechInnovate
After 8 years in retail management, I decided it was time for a change. I had always been interested in technology but didn't have formal training. CareerConnect's 12-week coding bootcamp gave me the foundation I needed to make the transition. The instructors were supportive, and the career services team helped me prepare for interviews and negotiate my offer. Within two months of completing the program, I landed my first role as a junior developer, and I've since been promoted to a full Software Engineer position. The skills and confidence I gained through CareerConnect completely transformed my career trajectory.
Key Results:
- Completed 12-week coding bootcamp
- Landed first tech job within 2 months
- Increased salary by 65%
- Promoted within first year
