They were exactly where you are. Here's what happened next.
I withdrew from my master's program after two months because I saw more value in IDOL Academy. Five months later I had a job — and I would still be in grad school otherwise, racking up debt with nothing to show for it. Best decision I ever made.
I'm beyond excited about starting my new role at Google. I truly owe it to IDOL — the community, the courses, the opportunities. My advice to anyone on the fence: keep going. There is no behind in the Academy.
I sent out over 30 applications without a single interview. Just a couple months after joining IDOL Academy, recruiters were contacting me weekly. I didn't just land a job — I had four offers to choose from.
I am so grateful to IDOL for helping me during my transition. I was hoping the program would help me land a job — I never thought I would land one at my dream company. Hard work really does pay off.
I went from zero to hero. I acquired everything I needed through IDOL Academy. What I am most grateful for is the support — I never felt alone on this journey. Not for a single day.
My interviewer was so impressed with my skills that she created a job for me on the spot. I could not have accomplished my goals without the help of my mentors, coaches, and the greater IDOL community.
