"After A Year of not landing a job, I can confidently say that this was not worth it."
After A Year of not landing a job, I can confidently say that this was not worth it. The school is great the people are great but there is no guarantee for landing a job. In fact, I found it almost impossible to even get an interview. I did get a few... Read More
Forget about linked int. No one in tech wants to let you into the tech field. Half of the people I reached out to were either looking for a job themselves or hostile to letting "competitors" in.
Most of the jobs require security clearances which no one will sponsor you for even if you have a flawless record and have never sipped an ounce of alcohol your entire life.
The school doesn't have connections who are looking for graduates. You pretty much have to have a master's degree and 5+ years in tech to even get considered.
If have already been in the field for years or have a related degree, it may be useful. For anyone else, save your money.
