Pros and Cons Pros: instructors, overall curriculum, helping build your resources to be a full stack developer, the online learning platform. Cons: Career services team. The team is overburdened and doesn’t have the ability to support all students. Example - sending a resume to review. Not hearing back for 2 weeks and then them completing it during a meeting. They also don’t have connections with companies to help get you placed.

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

Good bootcamp 8 of 10 Good instructors, updated tech pathway and the platform work fine. Points that need improve traduction in my case take the chilean mern bootcamp and traductiona have a lot of errors. Other strong points of bootcamp is the work preparation and help in the search of first programmer job it’s work for me.

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.

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.
