"Metis was one of the most rewarding experiences of my career"

"Superb learning experience. But career services need a MAJOR rethink."

I’ll start with the pros. I fell in love with Metis during the bootcamp. Perhaps the most life-changing learning experience that was brought about in such a short time. Yes, it’s intense and probably not for everyone. But it struck the right balance between... Read More

Thank you for your candid feedback. While we are delighted that you called it “perhaps the most life-changing learning experience” you’ve had in such a short time, we take your constructive feedback very seriously. We would like to share some additional... Read More

Our growing alumni base is one of our proudest accomplishments. Having successfully placed Data Scientists in roles since 2014, we now have a graduate community of more than 1,200 alumni, including roughly 250 graduates that directly hire or strongly influence hiring decisions at their companies.

In fact, since the beginning of the year, alumni and Metis hiring partners have posted more than 80 open jobs in our private Metis Jobs Slack channel; the majority of these are entry-level data science and analytics roles. Not to mention the new roles posted in MADE, our internal platform for jobs specially curated for our recent graduates. While some descriptions may say 4-5 years of experience, the jobs posted on the platform have been vetted by a Metis career advisor. In many cases, these opportunities have been posted by an advisor after speaking directly with the company and learning that the company would consider recent graduates of Metis in their search. We encourage graduates who are unsure if they should apply to a particular job to reach out to their advisor to discuss.

You are absolutely right that securing employment has become more challenging in the face of COVID-19 for all bootcamp and college graduates. We are fully committed to helping all of our alumni be successful in this area. We welcome all feedback and look for opportunities to improve, so if you have any other input please feel free to reach out to the Metis career support team. Again, we want to help you succeed. We’re here for you.

"A formerly fantastic program punctuated with really terrible post-grad support"

Thank you for your candid feedback. We are very sorry to hear your reflection on your experience. We would like to share some additional perspective for you and for others who may read your review in the future.

We are committed to providing fantastic programs with extremely dedicated instructors and career advisors whether or not the program is accredited; in fact, we now offer four bootcamps with specializations instead of just one, in addition to seven short immersive courses. The curriculum was updated by our in-house team of data scientists in line with learning science best practices.

Finally, we’d like to address your comments on career support. You are absolutely right that job placement has become more challenging in the face of COVID-19, but this is not unique to Metis. Every bootcamp contends with the same job market, and there is ample evidence that the data science and analytics job market has already begun to bounce back and will continue to grow.

In the meantime, our career advisors have been going above and beyond to support students and graduates as they enter the job market. Graduates can schedule weekly check-ins, or at the frequency of their choosing, which include job search strategy deep dives, hour-long individual mock interviews, additional resume and LinkedIn review, cover letter review and edits if applicable, and salary negotiations. In addition, graduates get access to Metis’s alumni resource folder that includes videos of data science talks from industry professionals and working alumni, interview preparation resources, career workshop slide decks and recorded videos on a variety of job searching topics. We invite you to reach out to your Metis Career Advisor if you’d like to take advantage of any of these resources.
