Obsessed with helping underdogs land their 1st data & AI job in Australia Australian flag

I remember struggling to find my first tech job in Australia.

Applying to hundreds of roles was not working. All I got back were rejections.

I realised the hard way that immigrants usually start at a disadvantage. Visa issues, a small network, a career change, a long break, no mentors, no local experience, low confidence, and plenty more.

Australia is a competitive market. Sydney ranks 17th in the world for job market competitiveness. Underdogs like us have to take an unorthodox approach.

That is how The Data & AI Institute was born, headquartered in Sydney.

The team and I are obsessed with helping underdogs land their first tech job in Australia.

That is our north star goal.

Money back guarantee

14-day money back. No questions asked.

✓
Job support guarantee
Coaching continues past the program end date until you are placed.
✓
Pay monthly, not upfront
No lump sum, no loan. Part of the full-stack fee is deferred until you are earning.
