Choosing a New Direction

Shylajadevi began her career journey in psychology and later worked as a fulfilment associate at Amazon. But she knew her future lay elsewhere. Drawn to the innovation and creativity of the IT sector, she made the decision to retrain as a web developer.

An advert for ITOL Recruit at her workplace introduced her to the Coding Job Programme, which promised flexibility, support and the technical training she needed to break into tech.

Learning to Code with Confidence

From the start, Shylajadevi appreciated the structure and clarity of the course. Guided by her tutor Emmanuel, she worked through key programming languages and frameworks at her own pace.

Emmanuel’s patient teaching style helped her understand complex topics, build confidence and stay motivated — even when the material was completely new.

Support That Went Beyond the Course

Alongside technical training, Shylajadevi received career development support from the ITOL Recruit team. This included:

• Professional CV writing
• Mock interviews and feedback
• Ongoing career advice tailored to her goals

What stood out was the level of support she received even after completing her training. This continued guidance helped her feel ready to step into the job market with real confidence.

A Certified Web Developer with a New Vision

Shylajadevi successfully completed her certification as a web developer. The journey not only gave her the technical skills needed for a new career but also changed her outlook on what was possible.

She now recommends ITOL Recruit to anyone thinking about changing careers or entering the tech industry, especially women looking to break into development roles.
