I chose the bootcamp at Constructor Academy for two main reasons: First, their emphasis on modern web technologies such as Javascript/React, Python/Django, Docker, and Gitlab CI; and second, its location in Zürich West, a dynamic part of modern Zurich... Read More that I was already familiar with from previous job experiences. After spending several years in digital product management and leading teams of software engineers, UX designers, and product owners, I wanted to pivot and transition into a software engineering role myself. Undoubtedly, my prior experience in website development, experimentation with web technologies, and close collaboration with software engineers facilitated my engagement with the rigorous curriculum. I particularly appreciated the integration of lectures and hands-on exercises. Learning new concepts in the mornings and immediately applying them in practical exercises in the afternoons provided a sense of daily achievement and steady progress. The most rewarding aspect of the bootcamp was undoubtedly the group assignments, especially the final project (capstone project), where we honed our teamwork skills and successfully developed a nearly functional product from inception to completion in just three weeks. Additionally, the vibrant learning environment at the Zurich campus and the opportunity to connect with individuals from diverse backgrounds who shared a common passion added immense value to the experience. The bootcamp played an important role in finding a software engineering position at one of Switzerland's leading universities a few weeks later. I am grateful for the invaluable experience gained at Constructor Academy.

The best thing about this course and what sets it apart from others is that they not only managed to build a programme which provides lots of value, but they also built a wonderful supportive community and you will become part of it the moment you join.

They have my respect for having accomplished this. Building such a community that continues to exist even after the course is over, is difficult to achieve and I give them a lot of credit for this. My special thanks and love goes to: Laurent, Pablo, Ruben. Thank you so much for your help, kindness and emotional and practical support.
