Scaler

My journey with Scaler began in June 2023 when I joined the DSML course. The teaching and case studies provided me with both theoretical and practical understanding of the concepts. Moreover, the doubt sessions, along with the classes and the exceptional... Read More pedagogy, explained the toughest concepts in the simplest terms.

Very well designed and structured course. I attended the Scaler Academy batch. The course is a must do for anyone who needs a support and help to get upto the speed with software engineering basics. The curriculum and community is designed very well to... Read More help students succeed.
If fees can be reduced, it can cater to many more people who needs it the most. I hope scaler team works on this.

Curriculum is comprehensive, so comprehensive that i left it in middle but if one is self motivated enough its good for them.
Problems given on platform are good one and support system is there to help you if you stuck anywhere.

Instructors are good in live classes. but this is expensive course and its not magical it just show you way to crack interviews but in the end you have to walk on those path.

Scaler helped me to become more confident in problem solving. With the number of problems they have in their curriculum, helps students to diagnose the patterns of different problems. Apart from that, my mentor was extremely helpful. His constant guidance... Read More helped me in my journey.

According to me, one of the greatest strengths of Scaler has to be its curriculum.

The next best thing has to be the Instructors of the Scaler team. They are not only exceptional teachers but also are highly skilled professionals working for the best companies... Read More in the industry.

Mentorship is another great thing through which I could get a lot of insight on my technical skills and also on my career as a whole.
Once in a mock interview, I had a very good experience with one of the mentor who was working for Google who gave me a great feedback on my problem solving as I could not solve.

I really like and appreciate few of the initiatives taken by Scaler apart from their regular curriculum given the current job market in order to help students succeed in their careers.
TCT(Technical competency test), Revision notes, Inteview packets(compiled interview experiences of students), WhatsApp groups for students based on their persona, Holiday study plans are few of them.
These initiatives have really helped me in being consistent in my effort to secure a job despite the job market.

As for me, the negative experience I had was a Resume review session with a mentor where he was not aligned with the guidelines that I was taught to format my resume.

The other downside would be the Sales representative who makes fake promises to students to join the program. Of course the program offered by Scaler is outstanding but it should be pitched in a proper manner by Sales team.

I also secured a job through Scaler.

Finally, I would say that the program is excellent and I have benefited greatly from it.

I joined Scaler as a student, and my very first class was conducted by the founder, Anshuman himself. Scaler has excellent instructors who helped me grasp the underlying patterns behind problem-solving. Their curriculum goes beyond just Data Structures... Read More and Algorithms, covering topics like Low-Level Design and High-Level Design (with sessions conducted by the founder). Leveraging their vast network of connections with product-based companies, they arranged interviews with 25 companies for me in just three months. By the end of the course, I had 5 job offers in hand and achieved a 200% salary hike.

Enrolling in Scaler Academy’s software engineering course has been one of the best decisions for my career. The program is exceptionally well-structured, offering a comprehensive curriculum that balances theoretical concepts and hands-on learning.
