Fortunately, I chose to participate in this bootcamp! Before that, I had zero background in the data analysis industry. I was just a product manager. Due to the epidemic, my original job stopped, so I tried to find a new career direction. The data scientist... Read More bootcamp of WeCloud data provides additional free basic courses, such as Python foundation and SQL, before it officially starts. For someone like me who has no foundation at all, this is very helpful, avoiding the situation of being unable to keep up in the formal courses. Secondly, it is not so easy to concentrate on online studying. Various exercises after class and timely answers from the instructor are good urges and supervision. The design of the course is based on the real working environment requirements. In addition to the technical professors, many lectures and group cooperation projects have been arranged, as well as project coordination software, such as the Jira and Confluence, etc. The real experience of these skills is if they are applied to the actual work team. Finally, I would like to specifically mention employment counseling. The instructor assisted me in revising my resume for the career position I chose. It is not to apply a template, but to combine my personal situation to highlight the advantages. For me who is a junior skill and a career changer, a good resume is the first step to success. WeCloud also arrange for me to join the internal and external projects， those are valuable experiences I wrote into ​my resume.

Even though I was uncertain about switching careers, I am really glad that I made my decision to join WeCloudData Data Science Bootcamp. I've learned a lot of technical skills through the program which is very practical (in the projects, interviews, jobs).... Read More Indeed, a big THANK YOU to the whole faculty - an extremely supportive team. :) They are not only teaching you the knowledge but also helping you to pursue and land your first journey in data science.

Do you want to take a data science bootcamp? Ask me :) My background is engineering, and I worked in oil and gas industry but had no experience in the field of data. I have taken the WeCloudData bootcamp in May to August 2021. I can say, before attending... Read More the bootcamp I have talked with almost 20 alumni who have taken the WeCloudData bootcamp before and tracked their career path in LinkedIn. So, I kind of knew what the path looks like, but the way that I landed the Data science job was very better than I have even imagined.

I attended WCD from January to April 2021. The greatest thing about it apart from other bootcamps is the alumni network and career support. I met and have been friends with so many data professionals. We get along together and share a very deepened friendship.... Read More WCD really is the catalyst for my career development. Vinny, Shan, Shaohua and the TAs have been supportive along the whole journey - the start of week 1 till now. They won't hesitate to answer questions and offer consultancies in no time.

As a graduate majoring in statistics in 2019, I deeply realized the cruelty of the society after graduation. I have no internship background and no project experience in university, so I couldn't find a job that matches my major. In January 2021, I joined... Read More WeCloud Data "Data Science Diploma Applied Data Science and Big Data" Boot Camp. The course lasts for 13 weeks, ranging from elementary coding to personal project, and the content of the course is from simple to profound, enabling even those with no professional background to understand, realizing from zero to Hero. The course also includes free one-on-one resume editing services for professional teams, interview question preparation, mock interviews, and more. In general, during the 10 months of working with the WCD team, I feel that I have been treated as a customer service and got the job offer of my dream company. I am very grateful to WCD as an educational platform and to everyone who has helped me. If you are looking for a platform to learn Data Science, don't hesitate to choose WCD.

I decided to take this course when I got a promotion that would give me the opportunity to migrate my career to the data engineering field. The course was really great a little too fast if you are not in a technical field already. You will need to study... Read More hard reviewing classes and making the labs and assignments but you always have the support of the TAs (they are awesome) or even the instructors and your own classmates that are always helping each other via Slack. You will learn how to create pipelines in AWS and a bit of Gcloud (I wish I had learned more about GCP). There will be a final project where you will need to present a pipeline that you created (don't worry they will be helping you!) In the end, they will be doing some review classes that are super helpful to link everything you have learned together. Then, they will be helping you to find a job. I didn't take advantage of the job support because I will get a promotion in my current job but they offered me for next year if I want their help they will be available. That's the awesome part about this school, their support during and after the course is amazing. Shaohua is always looking for the best for his students, he wants to make sure that you have the best experience with them. I highly recommend this course and this school.

I'm writing this review to share my story with WeCloudData and how it helped me land a job in the Data Science industry. I have three friends who graduated from the program and they all have a decent data job right now, which left me a great first impression... Read More about this program while I was looking to switch my career to something more tech-oriented. The curriculum and materials are well-designed. It keeps you busy (yet not frustrated) for three months and immerses you in the data world to achieve lots in a such short time. The program follows a logic of easy to hard, basic to advanced, and in a sequence of data science life cycle, so it's very friendly to any data/tech noobs like myself. And more importantly, the reason I say they do beyond teaching is, that WeCloudData provides 100% support on your job searching. They often invite managers of the data department, industry insiders, experienced workers, interview coaches to have a seminar/webinar and share their knowledge with the class. They will help you with resume building, interview prep, and even mock interviews sometimes. If you are still having trouble landing a job, you can also keep developing yourself by retaking the course or working on projects. With their well-developed program and supportive job searching guidance, I was able to land a job in a data science team at a leading financial company. While I have mentioned so many advantages about this program, there is a minor flaw that I felt the connection between me and my class is rather weak (I didn't even know what some of my classmates look like when the program was finished). However, I think this is what every school is experiencing at this certain time, and I can see that WeCloudData is actively working on some improvements to engage students. Overall, I'll still rate WeCloudData and its Data Science program at 5/5.

I completed the Data Engineering bootcamp at Weclouddata and was fortunate to land a job approximately 1 month after graduating. The instructors are people who currently work in industry and have plenty of experience. For Data Engineering, projects are... Read More the only real way to learn the skills. I’m glad that we had midterm and final projects to build data pipelines on the cloud (Amazon AWS) because that is the only way you can really learn. These projects have deadlines and require presentations so the pressure to perform is real, but that is how you learn fast. They teach you a very up-to-date Data engineering tech stack. This can easily be confirmed by looking at job postings on LinkedIn, Indeed, etc, and seeing what skills are typically required and/or sought after. As with all bootcamps, the limited amount of time given to cover a wide range of subjects is always difficult. It can be overwhelming at first and you will need to quickly adapt. Lectures and labs can only provide you so much. Independent self-learning on your own time is crucial. As many others have mentioned, the most significant reason that makes WCD stand out is its corporate partnerships. These companies, ranging from high profile multinationals to small local startups, provide real development work for the students and in turn makes all the difference on your resume. The organization has strong relationships with hiring managers and recruiters in industry, so while nobody can ever guarantee you a job, at the very least your resume will be seen by many of the right people in the right places which will eventually translate into a higher probability of success. As of mid-2021, the North American job market for Data engineering is red hot. As long as you work hard in this program, you have a good chance of success.

Finished Data Engineering full-time program and I would recommend this program if you are looking to learn highly demanding data engineering skills and gain knowledge of industry tools. The program teaches about cloud technologies (AWS/CGP) and many other... Read More DE tools for processing massive amounts of data. The projects are great and challenging and you will learn a lot. The full-time program allows you to work with real clients and there I learnt a lot while working on client's projects and solving real business problems. As a career switcher, I found this experience extremely valuable to land a job in the new field.
