Scaler

Scaler helped me level up technically with a well-designed curriculum and instructors who really knew their craft. I genuinely benefited from the learning. That said, the job opportunities post-completion didn’t fully meet expectations and need more consistency.... Read More With the knowledge gained, anyone can secure a job, but it requires personal drive beyond the program. This is my honest, experience-based review.

Scaler’s teaching was excellent, and every topic was covered in depth. The problem-solving sessions and business case discussions gave me strong practical exposure.

As someone from a non-tech background, the job support was especially helpful — I got... Read More a great internship opportunity at Sagas IT Analytics through Scaler and later secured a full-time role at Furlenco.

Cons:

Not as such

I joined in March 2023 and completed the course almost in May 2025 (Including optional courses). During this period, I undertook plethora of courses. What I loved about the course is the DSA module. I can literally say that I become zero to hero in DSA... Read More just because of the scaler course. All the mentors were excellent, especially Subham Soni, who taught advanced DSA and Naman Bhalla, for HLD. They covered almost every topic that is being asked in software engineering interviews. And mot just the interviewes, but they prepare you for the industry, which is a good thing.

Their placement support was also good, as I could crack multiple offers through their placement (Not big techs, but good companies with descent enough renumeration). The current company which I am working in, I got that opportunity through Scaler only.

The only con I would say is relatively slow place in course completion. Although it was promised that it would get completed in an year and half, it took more than two years to complete. But that's not a big issue, as got lot of things to learn.

thank Scaler Institute for helping me learn new skills and for guiding me to look within myself and discover the best version of me. Yeah it was not easy it took nights and days continues, but I enjoyed learning.
Scaler has truly given me a clear direction... Read More toward success.

Thank you, Scaler👍

Scaler has genuinely helped me grow in a structured and consistent way.

Read More clearly, and the real-world examples make learning practical and engaging.

The community and peer discussions are also very helpful — you always feel supported. Overall, Scaler has added real value to my learning journey and helped boost my confidence in tackling complex topics. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking to upskill in a focused and effective way.

I overall appreciate the scaler program for upskilling the folks from service-based to product-based companies. Yes, I agree the fees cost might feel on the heavier side, but the investment is worth only when you attend classes, practice the problems... Read More and concepts taught, and try to apply. For working professionals who are trying to make a strong switch, you can consider this program.

Course Quality & Curriculum

The curriculum is well-structured — it starts from the basics of DSA and system design and gradually moves to advanced problem-solving. The flow makes it easier even for people from non-CS backgrounds (like me) to catch up....

Mentors & Community

The mentorship system is one of Scaler’s best features. My mentor helped me identify weak areas and guided me on improving both coding and interview skills. The teaching assistants and peer groups also make the learning experience engaging. You don’t feel like you’re studying alone — the community is quite active and supportive.

🔹 Job & Placement Support

Scaler provides mock interviews, resume sessions, and access to hiring partners, but placement success depends a lot on your own effort. They do bring in companies, but it’s not a guarantee that everyone will get placed.

I completed the 2-year Master’s Program at Scaler, and overall, it was a transformative journey for me.
When I joined, I was all over the place — I didn’t know how to approach problems or build scalable systems. Over time, Scaler helped me grow significantly... Read More as a software developer. My understanding of large-scale, production-ready systems improved immensely. The curriculum, mentors, and peer community pushed me to become better every day.

On the interview side, the DSA training was very solid — most of the questions I encountered in interviews were covered during the course, which boosted my confidence a lot.

However, I do feel that the placement and job support could have been much stronger. There is definitely room for improvement in helping students connect with better opportunities and smoother hiring processes.

Overall, Scaler helped me become a better engineer — and I am grateful for that. But strengthening the placement support would make the program truly exceptional.

I’m writing this after completing the course. Coming from a different field, I wanted to strengthen my technical foundation and transition into a software development role, and the program helped me achieve exactly that.

Pros:
The curriculum is well-structured... Read More and thoughtfully designed. The instructors are highly knowledgeable and bring real industry experience, explaining concepts in depth and with clarity. I really liked the practice question feature after each topic, whether it was DSA, System Design, or SQL, since software development is as much about implementation as learning concepts, it truly helps in understanding them better. The mock interviews were especially valuable, as they were conducted by professionals currently working in top tech companies, and their feedback was incredibly useful for real interviews. Scaler also provides dedicated mentorship, which helps in understanding current market requirements and refining your resume so it stands out and gets shortlisted.

Cons:
For me, the only drawback was the course fee, which felt a bit high at first. But honestly, it didn’t matter once I achieved what I was aiming for, it was completely worth it in the end.

Conclusion:
Join only if you’re ready to give it your full effort, since it’s a significant investment, your dedication is what truly makes it worthwhile. The outcome completely depends on your consistency and hard work, but if you stay committed, it can truly be a career-changing experience.
