Here are somethings you need to know

Unable to find your question below? Get in touch with us via chat!

Will I really be able to secure a job in the field with this program?

Our program is designed to equip you with the essential job search skills necessary for success in accounting and finance careers. You'll not only learn these skills in your classes, but you'll also receive individual guidance from career coaches and benefit from group career Q&A sessions with your cohort. The program provides a supportive community where you can learn from each other, receive peer support, and confidently pursue and land your desired job in the accounting and finance industry.

When will I be ready to start the Get Hired part of the program? Will I have immediate access upon signing up?

You'll be ready to begin the Get Hired phase once you have completed all your Career Track classes and received approval for your Resume from one of our Ujuzingo mentors. Access to the Get Hired portion is granted once you have successfully completed all the required coursework and Resume submissions. We prioritize ensuring that you are fully prepared to commence your job search. Therefore, the focus initially lies on learning the necessary skills and completing your resume. Rest assured, the Get Hired program will be available to you once you have met the prerequisites and are ready to proceed.

Is the 'Break into Accounting' program offered for free?

No, the program consists of individual courses and a separate 'Get Hired' section, both of which require separate payments.

How long does it take to complete the Get Hired part of the program?

The Get Hired segment of the program is designed to expedite your job search process. You will work closely with your career coach over a 12-week period, but many students begin landing job offers as early as 4-6 weeks into the program. It's worth noting that some students start earning income within 1-3 months by taking on freelance jobs and gaining practical experience alongside their courses. This can include tasks like reviewing financial statements, data entry, developing financial reports, and reconciling/balancing general ledger accounts. We encourage you to earn while you learn!

How quickly can I expect to secure a job?

If you are still in the process of completing your Career Track classes, we advise focusing on that aspect first. Most students typically complete their Career Track within 4-5 months by dedicating 1-2 hours per day. Although progress may vary depending on your availability and commitment, allowing ample time for skill and knowledge retention is recommended.

Once you transition to the Get Hired Track, you will work closely with your career coach for a duration of 12 weeks, but it is common for students to start receiving job offers as early as 4-6 weeks into the program.
