At the 6-month milestone of my software engineering mentorship with Orcun, I'm excited to share my experiences. Orcun's lightning-fast responses to chat queries have been a game-changer. The exercises provided have been incredibly valuable, and every session has added significant depth to my skill set. Thanks to Orcun's guidance, I've acquired a robust set of problem-solving tools, simplifying even the most complex issues. Orcun's explanations and problem-solving methods have shattered my previous, overly complicated approach. I've witnessed substantial growth in my skills, preparing me for my ultimate goal of entering a leading tech company. Notably, my progress, though at a medium level, has attracted the interest of several recruiters. I'm eager to continue on this journey towards "big tech" under Orcun's mentorship. His ability to decode even the most "Martian" explanations has made this journey incredibly comfortable and fruitful. As I approach the 6-month mark, I'm excited about the future growth and accomplishments that Orcun's mentorship will undoubtedly bring. Thank you, Orcun, for your exceptional guidance!

Let's see the first thing to highlight is: Your response to the questions in the chat is extremely fast, then the exercises have been very useful, I must say that all the sessions have added value, let's say that I already have a set of tools to be able to solve problems more quickly. Seeing how you gave me the explanation of the problem and how you solved it, broke several ways of how I thought about the resolution (I tried to complicate things a lot, but really keeping things simple is better) I have to say that I have been able to grow a lot, I feel that day by day I am growing in preparation and I hope to reach the goal which is to enter a large technology company, which we will undoubtedly achieve, however my progress that I have had, at a medium level, makes several recruiters are interested in my profile. In the same way, what I hope is to reach big tech. So I am very comfortable with your teaching. Also because you have had to deal with somewhat Martian explanations from my side

I came to Orcun with a short term goal of getting promoted to Senior Software Developer & within a span of few months he gave me some useful advice that helped me get there. Orcun is very experienced, knowledgeable & knows what he's talking about.
