I write this review several months after finishing Codeworks. I attended 12-week software engineering course. I’ll start from the end: I got a job offer around 1,5 months from graduation (during 3rd wave of pandemics in the country I reside!). In other words, I got what I came for - job as a developer! In addition, I had amazing experience and created great relationships with people there, some I believe for life. The course itself for me, was as intense as it is advertised. If you want to get great results I believe that it requires your full commitment. It took me several months on mixing full-time job with getting through first admission phase (there are two if you start from zero JS knowledge!), then another month through the official pre-course (I came from sales and communication field, so it was a mindblower - I know that some did it faster tough). Everyone in my group struggled at various points, however we were all extremely motivated and it created great atmosphere of team working towards the same goal. Instructors can also be very stimulating and knowledgable. In additional to theoretical and practical software engineering input you can work on some transferable skills like problem solving, reading the documentation (that definitely during pre-course), working with tools used in the industry (not only by devs) and boost on a various of soft skills. |
