🔥 ACCELERATOR STUDENT SPOTLIGHT: Frederic-Alexandre Lefebvre
Frederic-Alexandre came into the Accelerator ready to level up — and he did just that. He graduated from an online degree & was a SWE who came to us looking to land a higher paying role.
After two interviews in one week, he walked away with two offers:
- One from a small robotics company — offering $20K more than his current role (just 8 weeks after joining the program)
- Another from Desjardins Bank
What’s making it happen?
Frederic-Alexandre showed up focused, coachable, and committed to growth — and the results are speaking for themselves.
His story is a reminder: when you put in the work and follow the right strategy, big opportunities show up — fast.

🎯 Want a Top Tech Offer This Year? This Is Your Window
Every year, I see the same thing:
Two equally smart engineers apply to the same roles.
Same resumes. Same projects. Same skill level.
But one gets four interviews in a week, and the other… nothing.
The difference?
Not luck. Not magic.
Just timing.
⸻
🧠 Summer Hiring Season Is When Tech Moves Fast — If You’re Ready
If you’ve ever felt like companies “ghost” you or don’t respond, it’s probably because you applied too early or too late.
But there’s a window — especially for new grads and mid-level roles — where companies are urgently hiring before Q3/4 planning kicks in.
That window opens in June.
And that’s exactly why we’re starting our next Software Engineering Accelerator cohort in May and early June — so you’re prepped, positioned, and ready to hit when it matters.
⸻
⚡️ Real Results From Hitting It Right
Not theory. Not fluff. Just real people, in real situations:
• Ria joined us in summer last year → Landed her Microsoft offer a few months later
• Chris was unemployed for nearly a year → Signed a $150K Capital One offer in 8 weeks
• Aliyan was stuck in “no response” mode → Ended up with 25 interviews, and offers from both Oracle and Amazon
All because they worked the system at the right moment — and had guidance, structure, and reps.
⸻
💬 Let’s Talk — Only 1 Week of Calls Open
If you’re thinking of making a move this year — internship, new grad, or leveling up — let’s talk.
I’ve opened up a few 45-minute strategy calls this week to help people seriously considering joining this next cohort.
👉 www.amanmanazir.com/coaching/
We keep the group tight: 30 students max. Once it’s full, that’s it until fall.
⸻
There’s no pressure. Worst case, you leave the call with a sharper plan.
Best case? You hit the window — and land the offer that changes everything.
Catch you soon,
Aman
⸻
P.S. Most people wait too long. By August, the market slows and hiring managers get slammed with applicants.
June? You’re early, fresh, and positioned. Don’t sleep on this.

🚀 Just Dropped: My Interview with @aliabdaal! (Full Circle Moment) 🚀
This one is really special for me—because Ali Abdaal was the person who inspired me to start this journey 5 years ago. Watching his videos back then made me realize I could build something of my own, and now, after years of grinding, I had the chance to sit down with him for a full interview on his channel (6M+ subs!). Even crazier? I can now call him a friend.
We covered so much value in this interview, including:
✅ How I built a profitable business teaching what I already knew
✅ Why most people fail at YouTube (and how to avoid it)
✅ How to escape the traditional career path and create your own opportunities
This was easily one of the most exciting and important conversations I’ve ever had—Ali is a master at extracting insights, and we went deep into strategies that can change your life if you’re trying to level up your career or build a brand online.
Huge thanks to Ali for everything—this journey wouldn’t have started without him! 🙌🔥
Drop a comment after watching—I’d love to hear your biggest takeaway! 🚀

Today, I talk with Amy Wang (@wamyy5)—a Caltech graduate with a 4.0 GPA in Chemical Engineering and a YouTuber with 600K+ subscribers—about what it really takes to succeed in one of the hardest universities in the world.
Amy has mastered the balance of academics, content creation, and life—and in this conversation, we break down:
• How she got a 4.0 GPA at Caltech while battling severe migraines
• The mindset shift that made studying easier (without burnout)
• How to stop wasting time on ineffective study methods
• What it’s actually like to be a content creator with a huge audience
• AI’s impact on learning, creativity, and the future of education
And much more!
We also did a deep dive on her podcast (@aCEOofLife), where we covered similar topics but went even deeper into AI and the realities of content creation.
