Part-Time Instructor - Advanced Gen AI

Who are we, you ask?

Interviews can be hard, especially at top tech companies like Google, Facebook, and Netflix. Many candidates fall short simply because they aren’t adequately pepared. That’s where we come in. Our acclaimed courses specialize in interview preparation and transitioning into high-demand tech fields such as AI, ML, and Data Science. At Interview Kickstart, current and former hiring managers have guided over 17,000 tech professionals through transformative career journeys, ensuring their success in landing coveted positions. Think of us as “the everything store” for career transitions and interview skill development.

How do we do that, you ask?

We have a structured approach to interview success, which includes:

• Career Accelerator Course
• Comprehensive end-to-end courses and platform
• A roster of over 600+ instructors from leading Silicon Valley companies like Google, Facebook, Amazon, and Netflix
• A holistic approach that includes live classes, mock interviews, personalized coaching, resume refinement, career strategies, and invaluable referrals

What’s more exciting is - we are completely remote, and we are hiring the best people we can find regardless of geography.

We have recently launched multiple GenAI courses to help ML and non-ML working professionals explore the world of Generative AI. We are looking for Generative AI experts - part-time Instructors. This role will provide opportunities to network with other experts, understand learner issues and contribute to the GenAI community.
