Overview

Resume/CV
The ability to present your software testing skills and experience to a future employer is extremely important when applying for any job in the field of QA. For this project, the tester will update their own resume/CV incorporating the experience gained during the Testing4Success Career Boost Package. Once submitted, one of our QA Managers will review it and provide some feedback and recommendations. Our QA Managers have a great deal of experience with selecting candidates for job interviews, and so this feedback will be invaluable.

Covering Letter
First impressions last….the vast majority of job applications are decided based on the covering letter, as many candidates are discarded based on the initial read. In order to engage the person who is reading your covering letter, it must contain the information that the employer is looking for, nothing more, nothing less. Once your covering letter is uploaded, one of our QA Managers will review it and provide expert feedback and recommendations.

Interview Preparation
While you can never know what exactly you will be asked during an interview, there are certainly some ways you can prepare. This project will give the student experience in preparing for an interview for the position of a software tester. The first task within this project will be to research a company to learn more about their business and products, with the aim of building a list of key information that can be referred to in the interview. Next, a set of practice interview questions for the role of a software tester will need to be answered by the student, all of which will be reviewed by the course tutor, followed by constructive feedback and interview tips.
