The IK Experience: What Our Alumni Are Saying

I highly recommend the Applied GenAI course by Interview Kickstart. The PM path was incredibly well-organized, reshaping my thinking on how to leverage Generative AI in product management. The hands-on approach, insightful curriculum, and experienced instructors made it an outstanding learning experience!

Venkatesh Babu

Senior Director - ISV/SolEx Technical Partner Management

I recently completed the Applied Gen AI course at Interview Kickstart, and I couldn’t be more impressed. The course was well-structured into modules, making complex concepts easier to digest. For someone without a strong programming background, I appreciated the beginner Python class they offer for non-programmers—it helped build a solid foundation. The instructors are fantastic and always go the extra mile to ensure every question is answered. They are patient and don’t rush through the material, often allowing classes to run over to ensure everyone fully grasps the concepts. One of my favorite features is the 'Expert Connect,' where you can have 1-on-1 sessions with instructors to clear any doubts. Overall, Interview Kickstart provided an exceptional learning experience, and I highly recommend it to anyone looking to uplevel in their career.
