Testimonials

We have worked with thousands of amazing people

The course was extremely useful for me. I have been a recruiter for several years, but not for technical positions. I found the program to be very user friendly for someone who had a very basic understanding of technology. I enjoyed the videos, the interactive quizzes through-out. The layout of the program helps to gradually build one’s knowledge.

I am very glad I ran across TechMap, reached out and received approval for select TA Partners to complete. I think everyone found it to be beneficial and a great investment.

"Thanks for being a recruiter that knows what they're talking about" I literally got this compliment from a software engineer after completing TechMap.

TechMap is an outstanding learning platform that explains highly complex technical concepts and paradigms by using real-life examples. This program is highly interactive and enables people without technical background to understand programming concepts, roles and technologies, so I am ready for some deep #techtalk 😇

My mentor provided guidance and feedback trough each phase and pushed me to understand which technologies are used for what products and their connections. As an IT recruiter I now have deeper understanding of programming languages, paradigms, SDLC and software solutions mostly used.

A big insecurity of mine when transitioning over to tech recruitment was my limited knowledge of computer science and software engineering topics. So, when given the chance to take the TechMap course, I jumped on it.

The best course for Tech Recruiters. It gives you the full overview of the tech world and how all concepts are connected.

The whole course was fun, but really helpful. After 6 weeks, my knowledge of all the tech topics and jargon are finally taking the right place in my head. It resulted on my work as a TA partner in making candidate screenings more accurate, better understanding of the software lifecycle allowed to build more trustful relationships with hiring managers and better designing and planing hiring strategy.

TechMap is an excellent course for Tech Recruiters. It takes an individual through complex tech concepts and simplifies them using various learning methodologies. This course gives a recruiter an added advantage when talking with technical hiring managers.

Techmap is an exceptional platform for tech recruiter education! It is clear that a lot of thought and expertise has been put into TechMap. The integration of their actual learning roadmap and the examples and content they use to help you with highly technical concepts, paradigms, frameworks and components is awesome.

I found the TechMap course to be incredibly useful, easy to follow and beneficial! The mixture of learning styles was helpful and the technical content started from the very beginning which I personally benefitted from! I think the module style and the ability to have 1 on 1 discussions with the trainers to review and ask questions is a particularly helpful way to learn and ensure I was on the right track. The continued access to the content is also fantastic to jump back and refresh my knowledge or complete a different module when needed.

If you want a way to rapidly teach non-tech recruiters tech, it’s the ideal programme. Within 2 weeks of completing the course, the first consultant to go through TechMap was working on a CTO level role and comfortable with having conversations with leaders in our field.

The TechMap program's practical approach, with real-world examples and collaborative projects, bridged the gap between theory and practice. There were some really interesting topics like: • How APIs enable communication between frontend and backend. • How distributed systems fit into companies' CI/CD pipelines. • How Automated Testing helps organisations become more Agile

I found the training really broad and gave a great overview of many different topics. I just completed my MSc in tech, and this training still gave me a lot of valuable information into areas I wasn't super familiar with such as DevOps and their function within an organization.

I specifically liked the detailed explanation on the different programming languages as it gave deeper understanding which candidates could be great for a role even though they are not using the exact same language in their current role.

I always wanted to gain more technical knowledge as a recruiter in order to be able to find quality candidates, and also have more confidence while talking to those candidates There is still more to learn, but I feel so much more self-assured in my role and the work I do every day.

This was a brilliantly structured programme that took us step by step through the tech stack, the software developer life cycle, roles within tech and how they interact with each other and much more. With a visual map of modules, interactive learning and lots of productive group activities, this course provides a great overview of tech.

The course was excellent, with great real-life examples, pictures, demonstrations, and explanations, and I think I have learned a lot of new things. I will most certainly implement the knowledge I gained during this course into my recruitment job, as I'm very interested in technology in general.

I did enjoy the course and liked:

  • The ability to go at 1.5 speed as needed
  • NOT have a written “test” per se at completion (I was nervous about this the entire course, because I always overthink my answers)
  • The overview layout/map

I thought the TechMap course was very helpful. I learned a lot of new information and it gave me helpful insights that I can start using while speaking with my stakeholders and candidates. I liked that it was interactive, so it wasn’t just an information dump via video or article, but we had to retain the information and answer questions to assess our knowledge. I also appreciated all of the real-world comparisons mixed in such as the making a sandwich and restaurant examples. I’m not sure I have any suggestions at this point on things that I would improve, but if anything does come to mind I will certainly let you know.

With regard to Callum and Dom, they both found the course useful and I believe they've been able to apply their knowledge to some comms they've had with their HM's so it's been a good use of time and effort from them!

It was useful – to an extent. As the leader of the TA team, I’m not as “in the weeds,” with talking to candidates as my recruiters are – I’ve been removed from it for a while, so it took me a bit longer to complete and might not be as useful in my day to day since I’m not actively recruiting.

Most of the courses were easy – the one with the dad and the peanut butter sandwich was not. That one was too long and confusing – it was asking me to code and I’m not a coder so maybe I made it harder than it needed to be? That was the only one where I got stumped.

Otherwise, I would def recommend this to tech recruiters or corporate recruiters that touch some tech stuff.

I would recommend the TechMap course for the following reasons: 1. Importance given to pre-work. 2. Scaffolding of the content is well moderated. 3. Self learning contents are interactive and refreshing. 4. Practical examples and case scenarios.

Joining Telstra just over a year ago was a steep learning curve, not least because I had never worked in tech recruitment before. Working in executive search you generally "learn enough to be dangerous" with regards to each different client, role, and sector, but I realised I needed a solid foundation in all things tech and software engineering to really thrive at Telstra.

As such I’m happy to share that I'm officially TechMap Certified, having completed The Official Tech For Tech Recruiter Course from TechMap. I can't recommend this course more highly - learn at your own pace, in bite-size chunks, with real-time AI feedback on your answers. Great accessibility options too with transcripts for every video.

Really pleased to finish up the year with this under my belt!

It was a great course to tie together knowledge that I had as well as learn new things. The concepts were easily digestible. I wish there was an option to "I'd like to learn more" about any topic if you wanted to go deeper or get sent more information.
