3 People Who Helped me to Get a Job Abroad That You Should Follow
These people helped me in my career and I am sure they can help you too
The first person to mention is the guy who helped me to be a better QA professional, and he helped me prepare myself for interviews and technical matters. Also, today, he is my co-host of the podcast Testando na Gringa and also on Tech & Accent!
If you haven’t guessed his name, he is Walmyr Filho.
Walmyr Filho
Walmyr is the best QA I know in Brazil, and now he dedicates his life to teaching others to become as good as he is in Quality Assurance. He is the guy to go if you need help with technical interviews or want to know more about Quality!

Daniel Wildt
Daniel Wildt is another guy who is a reference to me and helped me open my mind about software development. I wish I could work with him someday, but unfortunately, he is in Brazil, not North America. Who knows? Maybe one day!
Daniel knows A LOT about agile, software development, and soft skills in general. He is also a practitioner of Neuro-Linguistic Programming, and I identify a lot myself with him. He is an inspiration to me.

Andrea Lages
Andrea is one global reference in coaching. She is the person behind Lambent Coaching, along with Joseph O'Connor. I had 8 days of intensive training with her, which changed my life. I learned how to ask better questions, how to plan my life better, how to coach people, and mainly, how to auto-coach myself. I remember her telling me a metaphor for the trains in Machu Picchu, where the trains need to go forward and come back, as a zig-zag, to be able to do the curve around the mountains. Life is similar; sometimes, we have to go forward and come back, doing some zig-zags, to be able to face some mountains.

I am grateful to have met them and excited to meet even more people! Next week, I will be posting some books that helped me.
