Testimonials

I've had an incredibly rewarding experience working with Bella. She provided invaluable support during my job search and coached me on interview techniques, which ultimately led to me receiving two job offers. It's worth noting that I had previously received training elsewhere, but my previous trainer's support ended as soon as the classes concluded. In contrast, Bella's commitment to her students goes beyond the classroom. I'm excited to be joining Bella's CyberArk classes to gain a deeper understanding of the subject.

Folakemi M.

Bella makes any complex topics easy to understand. I reached out to her as a Mentee, she supported me with hands-on labs which were particularly beneficial, allowing me to apply what I learned in real-world scenarios. I received my offer with a Big 4 Consulting company in July. I feel very accomplished, and would recommend Bella to everyone looking to get into IT.

Henry A.

It was almost one year since I had taken my CyberArk training and I still couldn't find a job. A friend had told me about Bella. I reached out to her promptly on WhatsApp, and Bella was incredibly helpful right from the start. She patiently answered all my technical questions and went the extra mile by connecting me with others on Zoom calls for interview preparation. Her interview template turned out to be a lifesaver. On August l2, I called Bella to give her the good news that I may be receiving an offer. Fast forward to September, the offer finally came for a Consultant role, with the exciting prospect of a potential promotion to Senior Consultant after 6 months. Thank you, Bella! You deserve all the 5 stars
