Are these online AI/ML courses really job-ready

To be honest, I was pretty skeptical about online tech courses. A lot of them market aggressively and overpromise outcomes. But the AI ML course I did from Intellipaat turned out better than expected. It wasn’t just video content dumped on a portal. They had live sessions, weekly assignments, peer discussions, and regular check-ins with mentors. That kept me motivated and on track.

The best part was the hands-on work. Each module had mini-projects, and a few of them became solid portfolio pieces I used during interviews. It’s not like doing this one course makes you an expert, but if you use the resources smartly, it gives you a solid foundation.

The catch is, you really have to put in consistent effort. It’s easy to fall into the trap of watching videos and calling it a day. But if you treat the course like a proper routine and follow through with the projects, it definitely helps bridge the skill gap.
