Let me save you 14 minutes: How to land a QA job without any experience? Have someone in the industry who can put you in. You are welcome
Absolutely true.
Wrong,
facts ...... itss like everywwhere ... i dont knnoww noboodyy .. so mi oppurtunities decrease
Then someone like me who knows nobody have to find a job in QA even though my major was far more related than teaching!
Thanks
Good for you and the tremendous effort you put into this accomplishment, but the moment you said that you had a friend within that company as a referral, was like a punch in the face. I have been looking for a QA tester job for a while without a single interview and here I am sitting with two bachelor's degree, CS and IT, certificates in python, over 5 years of experience with manual and automation testing. Companies prefer to hire someone just because of a referral. It's the reality of the job market, and man it's sad and frustrating.
I think it is impossible not to find a Job with your qualifications. Did you tried looking at indeed or LinkedIn?
If you can't get a job in the industry, I'm really concerned now as I just started a QA course and have no "magic" connections.
So it's basically corruption over qualification. 😢
Thank you for making a point.
did you find a job?
This is what I also feel like, I do not know how connections would work but they always require IT bachelor's degree at least!
I love your attitude, "You want to do it fine, you don't that's fine too. I spent 15 years teaching preschool and that attitude actually works with the little one. I'm leaving as well. I can't take the stress anymore. I'm an introvert and the energy I expend during the day leaves me mentally and emotionally drained and teachers can never do enough. I'm not willing to spend my evenings and weekends working. I like how you brought up the negativity issue because it is absolutely true. Thanks for posting this video.
I’m proud of you for doing what feels best for you! It’s a really hard decision to leave a career but you gotta make life what you want it to be. Best of luck to you!!
Hope you found your way to something else! From a fellow exhausted primary teacher
@@MadelineElaineYT how can i contact you please 😢
@@lauraexplores8784 how can I contact you please 😢😭
I'm also a teacher looking to leave the field. Teaching is THE MOST STRESSFUL and least supportive (by parents, staff, admin) JOB AND CAREER FIELD I've ever worked, and I've done law enforcement, marketing & event promotions and been an Army Officer. Like she said, there is NOT ONE MINUTE OF FREE TIME during the day, NONE. All the while you are required to ensure that 25-30 kids are focused and on task , all of the time. It sucks. When I'm done with work, I don't want to talk or interact with anyone. As mentioned, you are working 10 hr, non stop days. It burns you out day to day to the point that you don't have energy to speak to anyone after work, nor do you want to talk to anyone. And let's not even talk about the lack of pay.
I just want to say thank you because I saw your videos I think early in 2021 when I was still teaching and miserable and now a year later I work from home as a quality assurance tester when I didn’t even know what it was a year ago and wouldn’t have gone this way if I didn’t see your videos. Thank you so much.
Ahh wow! I'm so happy that you are in a better place in your career and that my video could be part of how you got there! Thank you so much for your comment💛💛
Helena Hello, I am in the same situacion you were in 2021, how can I start the journey to QA Testing? thanks a lot
I left teaching after 1 year in the classroom. I remember how all first year teachers were supposed to have a mentor. About three months in, the school "reassigned" mine. When my class went to crap, they "couldn't understand what happened" and blamed and bullied me for not doing better. I asked for help and was ignored. Seriously, the public school system is a joke. Unsupportive, inane rules, unrealistic goals, reducing children and staff to numbers on a graph, and overall callous.
I left for an IT position where I still get to train and problem solve, but I am actually valued by my employer and my clients listen (partly because they're paying a pretty penny). At entry level, my IT job pays the same as my old teaching job would compensate someone with several years experience just without any of the stress. Also, my "mentors" are all of my colleagues and they have all been supportive of my professional growth.
Teachers, go where your talents and intelligence are appreciated.
What kind of training did you do for that position? I have an English Language and Literature degree and have a Master of Education degree
@@annasophia7977 I realize I didn't mention my role--it is as an implementation specialist. A lot of teacher skills carry over from creating documentation, training clients to use the software/application, and managing multiple projects and timelines. I was self taught in my transition. I used Free Code Camp to learn about front end and studied SQL scripting enough to take and pass Microsoft exams. Every software company will expect different hard skills (in terms of programming languages and IT knowledge) based on what they sell but the skills developed as a teacher are transferrable and attractive in my role since IT has a reputation for attracting more antisocial personality types. I have found it to be a great entry level role and it's preparing me for more technical (and highly compensated) roles as well.
I’m glad you said this. I’ve only taught for a year but I was scared that no one who take me as a serious candidate because I’m wanting to quit so soon.
Hi Alexis
Is there a way I can get in touch with you (email perhaps)
I am burnt out as as a teacher and want to transition into IT but don’t know where to start. Need some guidance please
Thank you so much for this! You're so generous and humble to share your experience. I'm looking forward doing a similar transition in my career and this really boosts my energy!! 🙂
Yesssss you totally summed me up!! When I get off work either I'm driving home in complete silence or my music is cranked all the way up, because I guess I feel numb and drained too. I was worried about tailoring my resume...but I am certain I can get a job in another field, thanks for this video!
Thanks for the video Madeline... it is so true what you mention. Making eye contact and have a good connection and have a good talk with the interviewer is the winning point. Sometime we just focus on the technical part, which is also important, but we often forget that they are also humans and it all comes down to if they liked us or not.
Happy New Year and thank you for making this video. I am currently a teacher who's interested in transitioning to the QA field. I have been a teacher for over 12 years now and I understand your positive and negative feelings about the job. I appreciate your honest assessment about both careers and that you had no prior experience at all. I am more motivated to attempt this move in the near future. Thanks again!
Thanks for sharing your transition and how your day normally looks. Really helpful info!
Hi dear Madeline, I love your vibe and the way you inform all of us in your video's. I'm currently in a job transition after being a nurse combined with lifestyle coach to QA analyst. Just started getting into it and get certifications. I have worked 13 years in family doctors clinics and I am just exhausted from it. I can very much relate to what you say, feeling totally numbed after work and not able to have conversation with your partner. Thank you for sharing your experience, it helps a lot!
The video I have been waiting for!! Thank you!!
Just finished watching. Thank you again!! I am excited to transition from education as well. I was worried about it but you have put my mind at ease ❤
I’m so glad this was helpful in some way! Good luck with everything 💛💛
@@MadelineElaineYT Hi, do you know any companies in NJ?
I've been watching a few "Why I Quit Teaching" videos, and I relate the most to yours. Personality-wise, I am very similar. I love reading interesting things, I love learning, but I also really don't care if a student is not interested. If a student doesn't want to do the work, that is on them. Trying to motivate even just a half-dozen students, let alone 20-30, is difficult. Multiply that times 4 and it is just too much. I also hate being "on" all day. I find that I cannot bring the same level of enthusiasm and focus to all of my classes, even within the same day. On some days of the week, I honestly just want to skip a class - this sounds so irresponsible, but I would like days where I can contribute without having to present, motivate, hand-hold, and lead people. I love doing some of that, but doing it all day every day is not easy for me. The challenging part for me is that I am just barely finishing up 1 year of teaching. Maybe teaching something else, like Career & Technical Education, would be better for me. Some things, like art, photography, some of those other electives, still involve some "teaching", but they also involve more workshopping, more creativity, and more flexibility with scheduling. Enjoyed the video.
*** Also, one of the things that I have found MOST challenging is that it is all on YOU. In other jobs you might just be responsible for a small piece of a larger puzzle in a company or organization... As a teacher, there is no one else. There may be a teaching team, but you are solely responsible for teaching your subject, and you plan/create/deliver/evaluate/support/mediate... and more. That is a large range of skills that people in other jobs don't have.
Ahhh yes I totally know how you feel! I would encourage any teacher to give it at least 2 years, because that first year is just...so new and so hard.
Teaching at the college level could also be an option for you (although that might require further education first)! Still a very demanding job, but I feel like professors are able to place more responsibility on the adult college students.
At the end of the day though, you deserve to be in a job that is right for you. I struggled with feeling "selfish" for no longer being a teacher, but it helps to remember that the students deserve teachers who truly want to be there, that really is better for everybody.
Good luck in your journey with this! Whatever you decide, remember there really aren't "right" or "wrong" choices. There are just different choices to create the life you want to live. (:
Thanks for your reply. I do want to give it another year... but I also ask myself if I think my feelings towards it will change. If things will be different or better in 3-5 years. They might be a little easier, but judging by what most teachers say, it is still pretty crazy 5 years in. But really, should I be waiting 3-5 years to see if I like my profession?? (Rhetorical question).
I’ve had a lot of uncertainty around teaching jobs in the first place... my last 3 roles in schools (Paraeducator, Student Teacher, Teacher) I was hired after the school year started. This year looks like it will be the same. Part of me feels like if the uncertainty is all the same, I should try doing work that I find engaging and fun and puts me in a creative flow... and see if I can make that happen. If I have massive uncertainty anyway... why not go for that?
Anyway thanks again for the video.
I’m on year 16 it does not get easier.
I had a very similar career shift...I was a lecturer at a engineering diploma college....now I have joined an IT solutions company as Trainee Quality Analyst a month ago...I could relate to all the experiences you had as a teacher...I had similar problems you faced during your teaching career...thanks for the insight...I feel more confident in pursuing my career in QA...It was really helpful 😊👍
I'm looking into QA and this video is very insightful. Thank you so much for this.
This is so amazing !! congrats girl
True! I am a Korean langauge teacher but want to switch into Software testing now or any IT field..seeing your video feels yes I can switch into this 😊
Yup teaching is soooo much to do, exhausting! I usually need to get home and sleep after teaching. I totally get the thing about not being able to communicate after work, and other people just can't understand it, I don't want to be rude but sometimes have felt like saying just please don't talk to me for like an hour, so my mind can just settle from the overwhelm! I found your channel coz I'm researching QA work for career change, so this is really interesting to me- teaching does really burn you out! I relate sooo much to what you say about having to be "on" all the time when you teach. And you can't take it a bit easier or get support from colleagues when you're at work with a bad cold or headache, for example!
ahhhh so sorry you are also feeling burnt out with teaching! I think some personality types are more suited to how people-centered teaching is. Definitely true that you can't really pass your class off to a coworker when you're having a particularly bad day 😂
Good luck in your searching! I hope you find a job that is a great fit for you💛
I am a first year teacher and debating on switching - this video is so helpful and so so encouraging!! Thank you!
Good luck with whatever you decide! It's a tough decision and a hard place to be. So glad my video could be helpful for you!💛
Soooo helpful. I was advised to look into this career because I’m very detailed oriented. Thanks for the tips.
I'm so glad this was helpful!! Good luck (:
Ah! This video is everything. Thanks for being so thorough about this all.
So glad you enjoyed it!💛
Thankyou so much for making this video my friend.
the part where you say you don't want to be in charge of other people/have authority over them really resonated with me. I'm also that way and when i look into future job prospects and see manager is the only way to move up, im like ugh
Hi, I've just subscribed your channel. I also an English teacher. Right now, I start to study QA as my next job. thank you for the sharing.
This video was very informative and gave me life. I see a lot of I quit teaching vlogs focus on how grueling teaching can be and their experience but I have no idea how they moved forward. Thank you
Awe I'm so glad this video was helpful! Thanks for your kind words (:
You are the kind of teacher that students have crushes on. Glad you made the switch and are at a better place.
I thought the same 🤣 she's pretty and sweet.
Veteran teacher here. I feel you. I’m ready for a transition. I need it for my sanity’s sake 🙏🏼
Yesss you can do it! I think teachers especially feel guilty for prioritizing their own needs, but ignoring them makes everything harder in the long run (for the students too)! Good luck!💛
Whew, yes! I am currently transitioning from leaving my job as a Center Director, and moving into a non profit that is so much more up my alley!
Thank you for the video!
I'm also quitting teaching and going to pursue in being a QA. This is very helpful. It's like you are my guardian angel. Lol. Thanks!
How has been your switch to QA? I'm a teacher thinking of making a career change to QA and would love to hear your experience.
you are my saving grace in my next step on my journey. you shall be seeing a lot of mila the cat in these comments as i work through getting out of customer service into QA. This time next year i hope to be on the brink of peaceful sleep.
The way you described your start of teaching sounds like me back in college and even now.
I’ve enjoyed Tech Ed for years and started college with a major in General Studies so I could see what’s out there. My sister (Math teacher) had suggested I teach Tech Ed because of my interest in it.
Not sure I’d leave teaching to become a QA, but appreciate the advice

Congrats, Madeline! I'm 37 and want to be you when I grow up. :) Also, thanks for being so transparent.
I really appreciate this video! I just had my first day as a QA analyst in my current company I was already employed with. I had a connect in the dept and it is a lot. I never had the experience as well. I felt a little overwhelmed today. I hope I can do this I beat myself up at the end of that and thought what have I got myself into.
I definitely felt that way when I first started (and still do some days)! But as long as you're putting in the work you'll get the hang of it! Good luck (:
Thank you! One day at a time
@@MadelineElaineYT so true, I really hated my job at the beginning of my career as a Tester and slowly eventually, I somehow got over it and now it's been 4 years and currently I really love my testing job. I cannot really believe myself
I just started QA training 2weeks ago. Please upload some more stuff about QA works and the future. Thanks a lot for sharing your life and career.
Ahh good luck with the training!! I'll try to think of more QA stuff to share (: Thanks for watching!
Always interesting!
This is very inspiring! :)
I’m a former teacher too and I have a QA Tester interview this Friday. This info is super helpful. Thanks!
Yay I'm so glad! Good luck friend!!
How did it go? And how did you get the skills to qualify for an interview?
@@ShaylaWynn I got through four rounds of interviews and I found out a few days ago that I didn’t get the job. Got the skills through a coding boot camp.
@@sergiocastillo6716 which coding boot camp?
@@Gr8ful7 Coding Dojo
I'm also a former English teacher turned QA 🙈 This video convinced me that I could do it without any technical background ✨
Our story’s are similar.
I worked in a call center and when issue would come up I would try to fix them/see why they happened. so, when QA need him from the call center to test a new website my manager suggested me. I help for about a year doing call center work and QA work then I got hired with QA.
Thank you so much for sharing
WOW! It's like the Holy Spirit led me and my wife to this video.
I'm currently looking to change careers from being a high school teacher to any remote job tech or design related and QA Testing is one to consider. This video confirmed that I'm way more qualified for this career. I really appreciate this video.
Also, I'm a Coach and Personal Trainer as well so if you ever need advice, I'm more than happy to help.
God bless you!
you have a great attitude and also great personality. As a student of CSE and I really want to build up my career as a QA engineer and along the way your various videos inspire me a lot thanks one of the most beautiful lady I have ever seen, ma'am. Take Love From Bangladesh.❣❣❤
Thank you, Madeline for the video!
I’m currently taking some courses on QA automation but I want to apply to jobs as a QA manual since I am still weak at my coding skills but worried at the same time that most companies prefer automation. I’d love to hear your thoughts about that! ❤️
Thank you!
Hi...same here
Can you tell me please, what is your results up to now?
Yea, the first part of your video got me interested. I like the fact that your kind of person as free sprited and you don't impose your will on other people, that's pretty radd in my own opinion.
Thank you - this was very informative! :)
I'm so glad!!
No one should have to TEACH more than 4 hours/day. The rest of it all takes it 4+ hours/day. Unfortunately the system is not set up for teachers to have the prep time that they need to sustain and be successful in the long run. Better at some private schools. Worst at Title I schools.
YES can you imagine the quality of education if teachers had adequate time to prepare engaging lessons?? I'm glad to hear it's better in some schools!
The prep time is taken up with grade level or subject meetings and filling in for absences.
@@ArtLenLa Yup. Forced collaboration and alignment have gone too far. Mandated team data meetings aren't productive or efficient for most veteran teachers and spur many to seek non-classroom roles; they grow sick of the act of it all and having not 1 minute of autonomy over their time all day long.
@@AyakoTachi I took early retirement to save my mental and physical health.
I have been saying this for years. Just observing my own kids. This model is so outdated. There needs to be an overhaul
Hi, If I didn't miss the part you took lessons about java selenium Manuel testing etc. you are the first person I have ever heard went directly to the interview with zero knowledge. You are very lucky, a lot of people include me taking very expensive (15.000$) courses for 1 year and then try to have an ISTQB certificate to just the go to the interview. I hope I will make it to the end
Watching your vids is like looking through a mirror. I worked as an English teacher for 12 years. Similarly, I and no idea what to do with my life after high school, so English Language Teaching was kind of an obvious career path. I've been working as a QA for almost 2 years and, even though I miss teaching sometimes, I wouldn't change the life I've got at all! Teaching is sadly an underpaid and underrated job. 😿
hi how did you become a qa analyst? did you have to go back to college for it?
Thank you for your service. Seriously, I thought about teaching when I was in college, but I knew it was not a good fit for me. You aren't just teaching a subject, to some extent (and sometime to large extent) you end up raising children and you need to speak at least two languages - at least in southwest.
So I say not only should you get more time to prepare for the day, you should paid more. A lot more.
Hi @madeline Elaine do you have to do a lot of writing(like reports 3-4 pages :P) as a QA analyst? I'm sure it wouldn't be difficult for you but for me as non-native speaker writing is very stressful task for me...Also this video is helpful and gives a lot of us hope to start a career with 0 experience and learn from thre
Thank you for sharing. New subscriber here. Also a career shifter. And I'm starting my QA life this coming monday :)
How did you get a job?
Please tell me
Thank you for doing this video. I'm starting a manual QA bootcamp and I can't wait to learn more about this field. If anyone is interested, the bootcamp is called Careerist (formerly known as Jobeasy). Can't wait to see more videos about your experiences as a QA.
Ahhh good luck!! (:
Hey Mary, did you start the Careerist bootcamp. I’m thinking of joining but want to get your feedback...lmk. Thanks
@@royminami578 Hi Roy. Yes I'm currently in the bootcamp day 12. It's a lot to learn but I am enjoying it so far. I'm looking forward to the internship at the last week of the bootcamp. If you are going to go for it, please mention my name as your referral. I would appreciate it. Let me know if you have any questions.
@@maryanntonettethomas3736 thanks for your reply. Yes, I will use you as a referral if I do decide to move forward. If you don't mind, I'd like to keep in touch and find out how the rest of the program goes for you...especially if they are able to help you find a tester job. Let me know if that would be ok with you.
@@royminami578 hi Mary! I’m also looking into the program. Are you still liking the course?
Hi, there seem to be a lot of jobs that contain "QA" such as Manual QA, QA Analyst, QA Engineer, etc. Do you have insight as to which level out at being something someone with no training can get into, and which require specific skills or schooling.
Fantastic.
Thank you so much!! This gives me some confidence in finding a job. I do have one more question. Since you didn't have any formal training in QA, how did the interview process go? Since it was a junior position did you not get asked a lot of technical questions?
Ah that’s a good question!
Right, I don’t remember being asked super technical questions. There were two interviews, and on the first interview I was given a kind of “test” where I looked at a sample webpage and had 20 minutes to find as many things wrong as I could. But that’s as technical as it got!
@@MadelineElaineYT what did you have in your second round of interview?
Ok so hear me out… I don’t have a bachelors degree or high school diploma. But I’ve recently been interested in QA testing because I’m pretty good with software. Especially music software! And my only job experience is really bartending, I don’t really know how I can make a transition from that.
As a QA engineer I feel this is totally underrated which is not, you still need education as programming to become really good at it. Just being a tester is not enough for this career, I am not trying to be negative about it, I feel you can change careers if you put enough effort. It is also crazy the amount of people you have to compete with now as a non related career, if you don't study programming nowadays and you don't have any contacts the truth is that is not going to land you a QA job.
I’m looking into switching to this career!
So just to be clear you received on the job training for manual QA or AQ Analyst, similar to doing a certification course? How long was training provided?
im a software tester too. do you do automation testing? if yes, what tool? :)
Thank you for the video. I also want to change my career but I don't have any IT background. Do I need to have any IT course before the QA course? Or I can start with QA? What platform did you get the course?
Very interesting 👌
Hi! Do you offer any one on one classes on how to set up testing products? Thanks!
I finished an English literature University in Europe and was supposed to teach English. Also being an introvert doesn't help. I'm doing video game testing at the moment, but studying to get a future job in qa and finally automation qa
Hi! I dont have a college degree but i've been working as a medical assistant, birth clerk, and health information management clerk at my local hospital, is this good enough to take a learning course and land a career as a QA Analyst or is a degree necessary? also any recommendations for a earning course?
Oh man 50 essays I remember that book from AP Comp - not sure where it is right now but hey we did use it
Such a zen vibe 🤩🤩 love it !! Also on this qa road, preparing for a course, would you say rather a 14 or 15 inch laptop would help me better? I see a second monitor should be in place soon but starting with buying a new laptop.
Thank you!! I would say go for the larger screen for sure 😊
Thank you for making this video! What company do you work for just curious?
So what course do you recommend to take to get into QA
I’m learning QA automation! Please make a video how to prepare for the interview! Thanks 😊
Hi! Are you learning from a boot camp? I'm looking for a good training program.
@@AmiTrades No it’s not a boot camp. It’s called techfios.com because of pandemic they are teaching online!
Hey, Madeline! I’ve noticed you have books in Russian on the shelf? :) Did you study it at the Uni?
I have decided to remain a substitute as that enabled me to have more time outside of work (not having to lesson plan or mark and stuff) but what holds me back from changing careers is not having the freedom to take time off and having to request time off etc :'( I cant imagine just having 2 weeks off in the whole year
Hi, I have a somewhat similar background (BA History) and didn't like teaching either, transitioned to UX design and have always been interested in QA testing. Maybe you explain this later but are you doing manual testing or automatic? Thanks!
Hi there! I do manual testing 😊
What kind of salary range do you think someone could start out in QA? I quit teaching a few years, and really want of it was I needed to earn more money. I know you don’t mention salary in this video, but I really would like to earn more than $60K. Do you think that’s possible without any formal training in QA? I see average salaries are around $70K online but not sure if that is a bit inflated. Do you ever find it boring? Thanks!
Hi Madeline, I am a Quality Assurance Analyst! I have been furloughed and Laid off. I am looking for an opportunity. I love your enthusiasm. you are very knowledgeble.
Can you advise what classes or course should I learn to get a QA Certified? Thanks
I just paused at 2:26 your attitude at teaching is awesome just not at a regimented highschool. Many teachers like myself are in similar circumstances.
I liked your video. I was a teacher and I really want to work in QA.
You are such a sweet heart. I am a DBA but i am currently looking for a more challenging role. gosh, i am attracted not just by your look but also your career path. How you give this information was so sweet and encouraging. so how did you navigate or what is the learning tip?
Hi, Madeleine, I am a computer programmer who has been out of the loop for some years, now I am back, I took some courses about data analysis but suddenly I felt curious about QA Testing. Where shall I begin? Thanks
What would be the software that is essential? I keep seeing jira, sql, and even python.. thanks! 😊
Thanks for such an inspirational encouraging experience sharing for the beginners who eager to get their feet in the doors. Your story is inspiring!!!
I am from india and following you from long
You are just great
So I worked as a work from home customer service and tech support since 2014, would I need to getting trading in QA?
Is possible to share you sample resume? How did you modify your resume to fit the QA jobs?
I’ve been seeing a lot of advertisements on social media of a promise of an $80k+ a year income as a QA. Is that true?
Hi Madeline, I am starting learning now about Manual testing. I have some questions that i need help. First is, how did you start learning software testing and second is how did you apply ang got hired even though you have no experience. Because my concern is that it's so hard to find a company that hires newbies or fresher as a manual tester. Thank you!
Where can I find companies that will hire/train you for QA testing. I've heard people mention that there are some companies that do this.
I’m in my late 20’s and it’s too late to go back to school and change my career. How can I find company’s that do on the job training?
Hi!! Can u pla share with us, the cover letter u wrote for ur intership or first job as a qa when u dint have any idea abt it all.. especially when u had a different educational background
I'm curious what the name of the position that you applied for was? Did it have junior in the title? QA tester or QA automation or? It's difficult to know what kind of job titles to look for. Thanks for your video!
Good question! The position I applied for is "Quality Assurance Analyst 1"
hey its Anil , what type of program you did to get a job in QA . if a person is from medical background can they switch to IT field ?
5:58 That is for any job, for life, actually! You can be excellent, the best in what you do, but if you do not have good connections, things are pretty rough! And sometimes you get things just by knowing people, without the need of any kind of qualifications, which does not sound fair to me, but that is life, as they say.
i have been trying for years to get hired by any video game companies but so far no luck. 68 times i have been rejected came close to a promising job but turn it down to be with my family and i reget it ?
Huhu. Thank you for this i was really looking for something like this since we are same that came from a non related work and i am also starting btw since you are on your 8th month are you having fun along the way? 😊
Thanks for watching!!(:
There's fun parts to the job for sure! I can't believe it's already been 8 months

What do you think were your transferable skills that you used to transition in to being a QA?
