RYAN SMITH
Climber Alum, IT Cohort IT Service Desk Technician, PC Enhancements
Ryan grew up in the town of Rising Sun, Maryland, where there is a well-known IT Company called PC Enhancements. Often, when he’d drive by it, he would see a huge sign that said “hiring a computer technician,” and think to himself, “I should put in an application.” Ryan started building his own PCs when he was 12. He loved the constant challenge IT presented, and it was the career he had always envisioned for himself. But he didn’t have any professional IT experience. So he joined the IT cohort at Climb Hire.
He thrived in his cohort, earned his COMPTIA certification, and tailored his resume and interview approach based on Climb Hire feedback.
Ryan searched for a job posting at that very company, found the owner’s email address, and sent his resume. A few weeks later, he landed an IT job at PC Enhancements, the same company that had once seemed out of reach. Today he’s managing onboarding and offboarding employees, working on cybersecurity projects, conducting service calls, and troubleshooting issues. The career he envisioned for himself is now his reality.
I am so happy that I came to Climb Hire
