I WAS AT Year Up I did the 6 months program then send to internship as a Accounting and finance intern and I was fired within 2 and half months.Guys when you get accepted to the program don’t think as a school it’s a training program and really learn the skills that is being taught to you in yearup LIKE seriously this is the part where I did not learn the skills properly just because I want to get through everything without grasping the skills I need to be successful at my internship ahhh I know my other friends will be hired on and have their successful career I wish I could go back time and learned and should have not thought as SCHOOL OR COLLEGE learn from this guys plz.
@@rayjay1734he just said it. He didn’t really attain information. He just treated it like school, remember just enough to pass a quiz then forget all about what you just learned. He didn’t know everything you learn in internship is a MUST know
I just graduated on the 23rd and remember watching this video before beginning the program 😭 thank you so much for posting this content as it really helped me make the decision to stick with year up and trust the process.
Thank you so much Honestly this is literally the overview of what I would need for year up I wanted to watch videos before doing my interview because I’m nervous !
@@sonialee7399 You could still get accepted but I believe in order for you to remain in the program you have to turn in a transcript at some point within your first or second week. But just to be sure , you should call and ask .
reasearch jobs online, watch videos on youtube, maintain a 4.0 gpa, believe that you can get an internship to help you with your future career goals, and finally realize that this is probably something outside your comfort zone, so you just forget about it and keep living your life. 😔
My strict Nigerian sister wants me to do this so bad but I know after is a 9-5 and that’s NOT what I want for my life I turn 20 soon and I don’t know what I could invest in for a career or job
Girl I’m 20 now! Definitely recommend stocks and crypto. If you want you can start watching ziptrader on UA-cam he one the main people I trust and I’ve learned from honestly :)
@Abigail Kosyuk I didn’t do the program because I am too antsy to write an essay to get accepted lmao the field I’m in is very catty though and I deal with anxiety daily because of the energy around me I’m always nervous that I’m not doing what I’m supposed to be doing
Hi, very informative but did you end up getting an offer from the internship? and if not do you know anyone who did get an offer? I got accepted but i see a lot of sketchy reviews online about how they don't pay enough for the work load, so I was just wondering how likely it is to get hired.
It's like going back to school. The program gives you a weekly stipend to help support you while you're taking your classes for the first 6 months. Then you get a weekly stipend for your next 6 months while you are interning at a company to get to experience what it's like to work in a career of that field. There are sketchy reviews about literally everything in life but Year Up is lowkey black and white. You go to school and go to internship. When you graduate, the placement team helps you find a place for you to work that aligns with your career goals.
Business tracks consist of; business introduction, Business Mathematics, Project Management, and a Career Readiness Communications class. This lasts 4-5 months and you spend one month training with your class. Afterwards, you earn an Internship Seat! That varies on your location but most on the East Coast get into Fannie Mae.
I see your shirt says Atlanta and I read in one of the comments that you were in the program for project management I’m supposed to be starting next month for that and I wanted to know what they taught and did what you learned help you get placed with a good job?
Hey Shawnii thanks so much for this video. Please I also have a request to make. I wish to apply this year and will like need anything suggestion in writing the essay in the application process. Thanks
I have just been accepted for the spring 2022 IT HELPDESK program. Im no so happy about that program I feel is not as professional as Project Management or cybersecurity but my nearest campus does not offer any other program. Any one here had a positive experience with the Helpdesk program????
I just had my interview with Year Up Chicago but i did have a general question. How did you manage with the stipend? I know I will be dedicated to the program but just not sure how to get by with the stipend. Attending Year Up for 5 days a week, really only leaves the weekend for a second job. What did you do or what would you recommend?
Tiara Hyche I worked for 4 hours a day throughout the week at a job and 12 hrs on Saturday so I did my assignments on sundays The stipend is not enough to live on
@@ShawniiEcho thank you for your response. This is something that I really want to do and currently looking into weekend jobs. Thank you for your videos as well. They are really helpful!
It depends where you are. You can go to the website and look up locations in your area. Call and speak with a staff member to see what tracks they offer and how they can help you. My site just added a new one so now we have three options: Banking, IT, and Business.
I know this video came out about 3 years ago but I know marijuana shows up on drug tests and I'm considering year up but the thing is weed is the only thing that helps with my anxiety and other mental problems, and I am also considering getting a medical card. Will this be a problem? And if it is, is it worth it going into the program? Because I would rather go into Year up because I personally cannot afford college and I don't want to be in debt so I think year up would be amazing for me but when you said they do multiple drug tests that scares me because without weed my anxiety is just all over the place. I hope you see this comment because I don't know what I should do. Also love your singing you have an amazing voice!
I had my interview and they went over this. I think for medical it’s okay, but year up coach will tell you ahead of if a drug test is coming up so you can prepare for it
I only completed my high school and got my diploma. My question is, do you need to completely community college in order to be in this program? Can you just skip college? I am a wife and mother of two wonderful kids and I just wanted to be someone or doing something for myself. I want to have a good job and give time to my family too.
I been skeptical about joining the program but is it guaranteed that you will get a job right after the program? I don’t want to waste an entire year and not get a job.
Shanko Kargbeh nothing is guaranteed you get what u put in but if anybody has gone through Yearup n didn’t get a job they didn’t apply themselves they have so many jobs u may not get hired at ur internship but you will def get a job from the program I get offers at least twice a month since I have graduated I just chose to pursue music instead. Hope this helps year up changed my mindset so even though I didn’t choose to work in IT I still would never consider that year a waste of time it changed my life for the better. I don’t think I had anything to lose .but I gained so much!
@@gyvencha That's wassup. what city is your year up track in? and what track are you taking? sorry if im asking too much i just got interviewed and waiting on my response.
Hey! So no you actually don't make your own schedule. Attend a info session at your local chapter and they will give you more details about the exact schedule for your track you choose and your site.

Did you get in?
Thank you so much for the video. It helps me so much . I’m thinking about go to year up, thanks for the info and the advices. Blessings ☺️💕
I start in 6 days I'm so excited 😩❤️
How long do it takes to find out rather or not you're accepted
It took a few days after my final interview to find out .
One more thing. If I can't get ahold to my transcript, would that stop me from getting accepted?
@@sonialee7399 You could still get accepted but I believe in order for you to remain in the program you have to turn in a transcript at some point within your first or second week. But just to be sure , you should call and ask .
Okay thanks
Could i do this as an college alternative? I wanna go into the computer science/information technology field
I’m so nervous I have my interview tomorrow and I don’t know what to expect
How'd your interview go? DId you get accepted, who was your interviewer?
No it’s all “IT”
I’m currently in the project management track!
What advise would you give someone such as myself or anyone who's suffering with anxiety ?
reasearch jobs online, watch videos on youtube, maintain a 4.0 gpa, believe that you can get an internship to help you with your future career goals, and finally realize that this is probably something outside your comfort zone, so you just forget about it and keep living your life. 😔
Hey man if your suffering for anxiety God can take that away, he took mines away and that’s why I’m telling you:)Trust God have a good day

@@ShawniiEcho hey shawnii, are you currently employed through year up? If so how much do you make?
It's like going back to school. The program gives you a weekly stipend to help support you while you're taking your classes for the first 6 months.

Yes it’s a lot tho I wouldn’t recommend if your a full time student h can’t miss more then 3 days with year up
