I'm opposed to joining a bootcamp, but I'm glad you wrote this article all the same.
Why am I opposed to them you might ask? (You didn't but I'm going to tell you anyway, pretending you asked.)
First, I had a really bad experience with instructors previously.
Second, I'm blind. And the bootcamp can't adapt to my needs. They often focus heavily on front end, while as a blind guy, I can only go to the back end.
Third, I don't have enough money to pay for that either.
That, and I prefer to learn on my own. Having said that, I will never say that my path is right. If anything, I'm likely to refer anyone who is thinking to join a bootcamp to your article, since you provided so much info. That should help them a lot.
Thanks for a wonderful article, Lyn.
Nice article Lyn Kim!! Absolutely loved reading it. 🤩
I came out of the training class, too
This is the kind of experience I want to have someday
Thanks for writing such insightful and detailed review about your coding bootcamp. I also think for career changers, we need a structured curriculum and discipline to follow it and all the help we can get for sparring and career orientation. Good luck!
Fantastic piece, Lyn! 👍
A must-read for all who are thinking about participating in a coding bootcamp. I wish you all the best in your job search. I'm sure it will not take long, till you get hired. Thanks for sharing your experience!
Thank you for sharing, Kim. Both the upsides and the downsides, your experience, and your goals for the future. I wish you lots of luck as you delve into the job market :)
This was so insightful, Lyn! I also think I learn better in a classroom environment and joining an intermediate/advanced bootcamp or enroll in a masters degree in CS is something that's been looming in the back of my head since last year. I love learning on my own, but like you say, I feel like I go everywhere and miss out on so many things. Having a structured curriculum has so many perks.
I'm so happy for you and admire you so much for getting through this then sticking with all the good things you got out of it - it was certainly a time for sowing and put it all in, your time to reap is coming!!! I can't wait to see where you go, they'll be so lucky to have you!
Great write-up. I feel like the boot camp experience can be so varied. Glad to hear yours, although difficult, ends on an optimistic note.
I'm sure you'll have a great career as a software engineer.
Excellent article. After reviewing your code and a Zoom call, I would probably hire you at the end of the call. Exactly what people are looking for.
Also, welcome to development. It can be very hard to do and not everyone can. You did! But you need to make time for yourself and not be pushed around by your employer. Take the time you need to keep yourself healthy both mentally and physically. You first, family next, work third. If a company won't allow you that, look elsewhere.
Good luck in software development, but I don't think you will need any!
Thank you for this excellent write-up! I did not know enough about how bootcamps are structured and I'm now impressed with the comprehensive structure.
Check out thehiveindex.com -- an online directory of online communities (often Slack, Discord), from where you can hopefully find dev-centric ones too; typically each of them has a Jobs channel.
Good luck with your job search!
This is absolutely fantastic, Lyn! Such a clear, thorough, and honest guide of your bootcamp experience. Thank you for sharing such valuable information! Any employer would be lucky to have you. 💪
