The onsite experience was very helpful… The onsite experience was very helpful in technical work. Visualization is your own part of the studies as working at the school and not actually working in a tech job can prove to stimulate at least a few illusions about how the work will be. The technical approach is really well done at Coding Dojo. They give you a taste of everything and keep you moving around enough so that when the dust settles, you can see the common patterns of the most important aspects to learn, as they are common among the many different tastes you aquire.

Coding Dojo partnered with me in making… Coding Dojo partnered with me in making sure I am comfortable and successful. The instructor Rob Y was patient and encouraged us to ask questions. Also I remember the times in code review where he would go beyond time schedule to make sure I understood and answer all my questions . I’m still on coding journey, thank you Coding Dojo for firm foundation!

Coding Dojo is a great venture if you … Coding Dojo is a great venture if you are seeking a very entry level introduction to the world of web programming. They touch upon all the major concepts lightly to intermediary. By no means will this make you career ready alone as they used to market towards. This is the fine line that reals in a lot of hopefuls. Do you research, come prepared and be prepared to have to run another marathon during and after the program to be even remotely prepared for work in development. Objectively speaking you may be able to land a very entry level basic web dev role at a company doing simple coding tasks. But if you want to be a serious dev, lots of additional legwork will need to be done.

Shop around a bit I did the 20-week data science program and it taught me the basics of what a data analyst and data engineer does. Note the difference! You will need experience and training beyond this course to make it as a data scientist. The certificate is way too expensive in my opinion. If you are a beginner, you definitely will learn a bunch and it will take 25 hours per week at a minimum to understand. The teachers were cool and they gave us plenty of opportunities to ask for help beyond the weekly meetings. However, the "career service" was just Zoom calls explaining how to connect on Linked In. To land a career as an analyst, you will likely need a bachelor's degree to compete with the hundreds of other resumes. This course might benefit someone who knows how to start a business with a few other people. Other than that, you will need to either know someone in the field willing to hire you or go all out on their career path via Linked-In (message 10 people per day) to gain employment. However, you can find basic data science courses for less than $50 to test out the waters before committing to a course of this magnitude and expense.

Came into the bootcamp not knowing… Came into the bootcamp not knowing anything about react or mongodb. Finishing the course, I can say it was worth it. I learned alot and the instructors and ta were very helpful. Left the bootcamp with so much tools under my belt and even more confident with applying for jobs. I was self teaching myself to code and if it wasnt for this bootcamp, it would've taken me way longer than 2-3 months to get the basics down of mern
