The space is beautiful, it's a loft style place with plenty of windows and sunshine, which is helpful since you're going to be sitting there for 8-12 hrs a day 5 days a week min. The curriculum is very well thought out, I learned Python, MEAN stack, and Ruby - each were based on 3 weeks of instruction and 1 week of review/project development.

It was a very tough experience, but I had a lot of fun. The instructors were helpful, snacks were provided throughout the day, and I really learned a ton. I would recommend it to anyone who is SERIOUS about getting into this field. Good luck!

"Algorithms plus, stack ok, facility not so much"

Pros are the training in Algorithms. Each day we take one hour to whiteboard them. Every week is a focus on a particular subject. For example, one week will be focused on sorting, another hash tables. We work together with other students. I personally... Read More

The stack instruction is ok - not bad, not great. I think this may be due to the fact that the instructors or at least the one I had lacked real world experience. At least the instructor I had didn't have any coding experience outside coding dojo, or at least it wasn't documented on LinkedIn. They had been a student at coding dojo prior to being a teacher there. Nonetheless they were very competent and impressive despite the lack of real world experience and I learned a lot from them.

The facility is kind of lacking. The internet was either slow or non existent. Otherwise it was clean (mostly), spacious and convenient to public transportation.

"Great Experience"

I loved my time at Coding Dojo Chicago. The instructors are very knowledgeable and care deeply about student success. Their learning platform is great at providing a number of assignments in order to practice a new skill (as opposed to just being slide... Read More

The fact that they teach three full stacks is a bit of a double-edged sword. On one hand, it allows students to get a wide berth of exposure to different languages and frameworks and potentially find a favorite or one they want to target in their job search. It also teaches you to learn new languages and frameworks quickly, as you'll have experience starting from zero at least three times. On the other hand, you can come out of it with experience that looks a bit shallow compared to someone who went to a bootcamp and studied one stack consistently for three months. My advice is to find your favorite and continue expanding your knowledge in that after graduating. (And overall, I prefer the idea of learning multiple stacks.)

I found the career services to be solid. There's a week after graduating devoted to coaching students on resumes, LinkedIn, etc. They also do a good job of bringing job openings and events to students' attention. The one problem with that is that it becomes a bit of a feeding frenzy toward the posted jobs and connections made at events, but I'm not really sure there's a good solution to that problem. I was able to find a job within a couple of months after graduating, as were my other cohort-mates who were in the top of our class. With that said, it wasn't an easy process. There's still a huge stigma around hiring bootcamp grads, and job searching (while simultaneously trying to continue coding) was more than a full-time job. If you plan on attending, definitely plan on not having a job for more than just the three and a half months of the bootcamp (and budget accordingly).

Like everyone says, it's all about what you put into it. Most of my cohort-mates and I put in 10-12 hour days everyday and worked at least one day out of the weekend. I'd say if you're not ready to do that or don't want to, then this probably isn't the route for you. Additionally, I highly recommend putting significant time into programing before you come (at least a month or so of self-study) - not just html and css, but actual programming fundamentals (try taking some of CS50 or getting a good way through freeCodeCamp). While the program is designed to accommodate everyone, in my experience, those who had at least a decent amount of prior experience were able to hit the ground running and not struggle so much early on. Overall, I loved my time at Coding Dojo, and strongly recommend it.

The variety of content offered via the three stacks platform. The instructors are constantly adjusting their teaching styles to better suit every individual student's needs. The small cohort size allowed me to get the attention and coaching I needed to succeed.

My cohort was the third group of students to study at the Chicago location, there were changes during my time there. There were instructors from the Seattle location on loan until they could find Chicago-based instructors. All the instructors were great, though some were a bit rigid in their teaching style. The community manager has been active in helping students find employment after graduation.

The learning is done via an in-house platform that allows students to apply self-paced learning. That style of learning works for me, but some might want more of a lecture-centric environment. The typical day starts off with a short lecture covering the previous night's reading assignment, followed by white-boarding algorithm solutions, the remainder of the day involves working on coding assignments and perhaps a demo from the instructor for the stack.

Bottom line:
It's a good experience if you manage to balance learning by doing for long hours with self care and figure out a way to collaborate with your cohort members effectively.
And as I mentioned above: YOU NEED TO HAVE SOME SELF LEARNING DONE BEFORE YOU COME HERE.
