            Cons

            Because of the flat hierarchy, you need to be self-motivated and proactive in taking things on. Clear accountability for what you do

                      Pros

                      I started the 9-week course this March with Amplify after previously taking the 1-week course back in December 2018. I absolutely loved my time with them and came out with an Advanced Level 5 Diploma in Trading & Financial Market Analysis. Their level of education is second to none. Led by ex-traders and market analysts, they really do teach you how to trade on a professional level. You will learn the ins and outs of monetary policy, fiscal policy, correlations, and much more that really drives the markets and moves money from different assets. I started as a complete novice trader and am now thrilled to be backed by Amplify and trading futures contracts with them. If you are a retail trader I will strongly advise you to take this course and check out Amplify. Without their tuition, you will just be shooting in the dark!

                      Cons

                      No Cons for me. Very good from start to finish

                        Pros

                        i think this is an excellent place for any person who is interested in having practical and theoretical experience about trading and reacting to market news. All the mentors are willing to support the trainees and improve their knowledge. Honestly, this was the best experience i have gotten so far.

                        Cons

                        There are no downsides. Everything is available in front of us to learn and ask questions about it. Even when in doubt, we can try the strategies under real-life conditions and check the results. If the trainee is willing to learn and experience new things, he will enjoy every single training day with amplify trading.

                      Senior Resource Manager

                      Last Thursday and Friday I interviewed with 2 hiring managers for 2 different companies. Both of them said they’d like me to progress to the next interview and the recruiter would reach out. One company said they wanted a offer out this month so it would be a quick process. I sent thank you emails and references. I haven’t heard from either recruiter. I had the recruiter screening and hiring manager interview just days apart, I thought I’d hear back by now. Thoughts?!

                      Program Manager

                      Just heard that some companies are going to start paying people for their time if they are asking you to do a presentation or something! Does anyone think this will become a thing?
