A Career Rethink During Lockdown

Cristian Puha came from a background in business development and branding within the leisure industry. But during the lockdown, he found himself re-evaluating his path — and rediscovered a long-standing passion for IT.

That moment of reflection sparked a complete career shift.

Choosing the Right Provider

Cristian’s search for quality IT training led him to ITOL Recruit. He was impressed by their quick response and professional structure. The course aligned well with his goals, and the simple sign-up process helped him get started without delay.

Real Support That Matters

With support from Lindy, Cristian found it easy to navigate the course platform and prepare for his CompTIA A+ exam. She provided hands-on help that made both the technical content and exam process far less daunting.

Cristian also made great use of Practice Labs, which gave him practical experience with different operating systems — something he considered key to his understanding of core IT concepts.

A New Role with the Right Guidance

After passing his A+ exam, Cristian moved into the recruitment phase and worked with Loretta McKenzie. Her help in rewriting his CV and planning his job search strategy led directly to him securing his first IT role — a major milestone in his new career.

Going Beyond the Basics

Cristian appreciated how the course didn’t just meet exam requirements — it went deeper. The materials offered broader context and real-world knowledge that helped him feel truly ready for the workplace.

A Confident Career Move

Now fully employed in IT, Cristian reflects on his journey with gratitude. He strongly recommends ITOL Recruit for anyone looking to move into tech, praising the platform’s depth, structure and supportive environment.
