Tell me about yourself - SU4

[IraQA]

I graduated from National Technical University Kharkiv Polytechnic Institute and I have a Master's degree in Economics, specializing in Accounting and Auditing.
Then I started working for a manufacturing company that produces printing products as an accountant in the Financial department.For the last few years I have worked as a civil servant in various departments of Finance, State property, Corporate rights and reforms.
One day I stumbled upon the channel of Mikhail Portnov, learned about such a profession as a tester and that it is not necessary to have a computer education to become one. I was very interested in this profession, which has helped many people change their lives. I took Portnov's free courses, graduated
from the QA manual course (IT school in Ukraine). I really liked the learning process and the desire to develop in this direction was not lost.
In 5 years I want to become an excellent specialist in my field, to work on good projects next to a great and professional team.
To be someone who makes a difference.

Hello!
My name is Mariia Kiseleva. I have a bachelor's degree in Linguistics (Theory and Practice of Intercultural Relations), main language - english.
I worked in a retail industry - specifically with electronics - and now I'd like to jump into the IT industry. I never had an option like this before but since I've managed to leave Russia (now I live near LA) it feels like a new start to me.
I always had an interest in testing something, searching for a root of a problem and solving it. Especially, wneh it comes to the gaming industry (considering a fact that I'm familiar with it since my childhood). And I do care about people's opinions on different products and their quality.
Professionally, I see myself in 5 years somewhere in a gaming department of a big company as a tech specialist (preferrably - a team lead, of course).

[StanislavRak]

I have always loved engineering and technology, so I studied at the academy as an energy engineer, which enabled me to learn the design of refrigeration systems and mechanisms. I worked in one of the leading companies in producing meat products, and I became the chief mechanic at a company, where I acquired the skills of work planning and strategy for several years ahead. But for now, I am ready for changes and new challenges.
Why QA? I chose the profession of QA because it allows me to ensure high-quality software and help meet the needs of users. I also enjoy the testing process, which involves understanding user requirements, exploring program effectiveness, and identifying and fixing errors. I believe that thorough testing helps to reduce the number of errors in software and provides a better quality product for users.
I see myself professionally in five years as an experienced software tester with a high level of skills in testing and automation. I will actively improve my skills and knowledge, share my experience with colleagues, and participate in professional communities. My goals are to hold a position as a middle or senior QA, be an expert in my field, and help develop projects and teams. I also want to learn how to manage projects and lead teams to become an even more valuable expert for my company.

[Dima_A]

Hello! My name is Dima. I graduated from university with a degree in "Computer Systems and Networking".
My first work experience was as a computer engineer in a parts and installation software computer service for 2 years. Then I opened an auto service for installing and servicing liquefied gas equipment, which helped thousands of customers stay satisfied and save money on fuel for 5 years. Due to the war, I had to leave the auto service and move to another city. I decided to try my hand at wholesaling liquefied gas equipment, which occupied 20% of the market in my region for 6 years.
My life has always been about troubleshooting electronic devices and communicating with people. I think QA can combine these things perfectly.
In five years I see myself as a Senior QA Automation Engineer.
