After all the technical training, Board Infinity helped me prepare for my job interviews. I interviewed for a software developer position in the ProgIST Solutions. I was nervous because I am not fluent in English but I was confident that I will get placed… The moment I got selected, I felt very happy. I am happy that I landed in the right job with the help of intensive training.”
