What online learning institutions are most respected by hiring managers and recruiters? Does it matter whether I choose Skillshare over Lynda over General Assembly, etc. or are they all basically seen as the same? I have a job, just want to build my skills and futureproof my resume by knowing more about things like UX and visual storytelling. Doesn’t have to be free.

kudos on taking the initiative! no one is going to care about the courses. what matters is what you do with them.

always keep learning. and try to apply your learning to live projects at work, or retool a project from work on your down time.

the application of knowledge will come across to a hiring manager in 0.2 seconds.

This, 100%. I built myself a design career with YouTube and classes from Skillshare's free trials (I think I used about 2 or 3 trials.) Made dope shit, got jobs, not a single person has asked me where I was taught or in what manner. Making strong work is the most important thing by far.

I recently had an initial interview for a technical recruiter position. The guy on the phone stated that this is not a 9-5 job and long hours are expected. I proceed to ask how much PTO is offered and he said that is not recommend within the first 6 months of working and the harder you work the more PTO you receive. From that conversation, I saw instant red flags. Any thoughts?
