| | Anonymous | My bootcamp(located in Woodland Hills) just ended today with a big project that was seen by a DEV manager from a start-up company and also from a tech recruiter. All in all I've learned a lot in 3 months: front end and back end web development that allowed me to create web apps from scratch. Clark the instructor is very good at teaching: he will explain concepts clearly and gave us many exercises to practice what was being taught at the time. He kept the class moving at a very fast pace since we had a limited time to learn so much material in 3 months: we had three projects to do in the bootcamp, as well as two homework assignments due weekly. The pace was very intense; I would normally stay up nightly til 2am to get my assignments done. We also had two TAs in class, Paige and Josh, who helped us with any questions that we had.
I am very glad that I took this bootcamp. Even though I felt overwhelmed at times, I also felt that I got a lot of help, support, and encouragement along the way. The post-career support is great too. They will give you feedback on your resume, LinkedIn profile, and Github profile, as well as coach you on in-person interviewing. One person from my class already had an in-person interview for a full stack developer position, and the next day he got offered the position.
Skills that I learned in this class include: HTML5, CSS3, JavaScript, JQuery, Bootstrap, Node.js, Express, Handlebars.js, React.js, MySQL, MongoDB, Github, Heroku, Responsive Design, User Authentication(Passport), RESTful APIs, Slack, Firebase, Local Storage |
