I have had nothing but excellent, positive experiences on Career Karma. A lot of people are saying they push bootcamps, but there are TONS of people on there who are doing self-directed learning and swapping ideas for how to build skills for free. I got a free laptop from them so that I could continue my studies. I’ve met recruiters and people working in jobs/fields I want to pursue who have shared really helpful information. I would highly recommend checking out the website and app. As with all social media, it’s important to keep a healthy dose of caution when exchanging information and it’s wise to be wary of people who don’t have links to other social media sites to verify their legitimacy. If you want to learn and get ideas, it’s a good place to start!!

I started receiving very spamy phone calls from people claiming to be from career karma, shortly after downloading the app and registering for an account. The app asks for a phone number when registering, but the app dose not say or ask permission to use the phone number provided to contact me via phone call. Inside the settings of the app, there is no contact/privacy settings where you can choose an option to have your information kept private/not shared/not contacted by some call center. Said Call center is definitely not in America either, I'd say India based off the accents of every person From credit karma that has call me. the app also dose not provide any options to remove or change your phone number at all. I find this all to be very odd and a bit shady. App has great reviews but I just can't be OK with the lack of privacy and lack of my choices on being contact. 0 stars.
