Looks like the common stereotype is true bootcamps are scams and the only way to actually break into SWE role is through college

Thank you my friend you saved me from making a BIG mistake. I found this bootcamp, and the others you mentioned in another video that are affiliated with edEx (I was looking at Northwestern in Chicago) in a Forbes article. I knew it was a paid advertisement but thought, its Forbes, it can't be that bad, right? Wrong!

I failed at self taught for 4 years. Took a bootcamp and walked out with a job in the worst market I've heard of. I definitely worked stupid hard the year leading up to the bootcamp. Once I got there, I was programming, learning, or networking for 12-16 hours a day. It was insanity. People thought i was a genius because I knew basic js/html/css/react pretty well. You should hardcore investigate the legitimacy of any bootcamp. That much money, and maybe 50% of my class has a job? Shit sucks. You better be ready to grind for a year after graduation.

Currently doing due diligence on Fullstack Academy and Codesmith. CS charges a lot more and has no scholarships. FA has a smaller cost and scholrships. I have been learning Python by myself, and getting a job with just Python is a pipe dream unless you’re a math wiz and know AI. So I’m leaning towards full stack. Once I get the first gig I can continue learning Python, and maybe scoop up another language.

Thank you for sharing this information. I just saw a boot camp of theirs being advertised and wanted to make sure if they were legit or not. I took some coding classes back when I was in high school but I would like to go to a boot camp to certify my knowledge on newer languages and break into the industry. I started studying Python in my free time and I picked it up pretty quickly so I'm pretty confident in my skills

Guys, I need some advice here. What do you think: two years of college or a BootCamp? Which option do employers prefer more? Or is it all about how I perform in the interview, and they don't really care about where I gained my knowledge or if I have a diploma? Thanks.

Playing devil's advocate, why not include some good bootcamps/short courses that deliver some skills cost-effectively without making empty promises. Some allow you free exposure to the courses (without getting the certificate).

@rodneyh19472 ай бұрын
A degree or certificate alone isn't going to get you a job in software. They want to know what you did. You have to have a portfolio of your work/projects, that is your real resume for the software field. Just saying you completed a course or certificate or degree and say you know it isn't going to get you a job. Competition is too great for that to work. This isn't a charity. If you can't meet the requirements, then this is not for you. The world doesn't revolve around your schedule, aptitude or needs. You either adapt or this is not for you.

Learners need to shift their paradigm. Getting started and employed within a year is not gonna happen anymore. Better have a job while you are moving to your new career, and build projects like mad. Freelancing is a great way to build the portfolio. In the last 5 years, the tech market has virtually turned upside down! Companies are moving away from taking on self-taught juniors, they have a much better pool after the layoffs. Just gonna take a serious grind now.

Learn Java and dive into Android App Development. There is a huge lack of experienced Android Devs. Also Java developers tend to have less competition so far from my point of view. The bad part about .NET is that most companies look for at least three years of experience writing C# code. Go with Java & Kotlin and you will have less competition once you get in.

0:35 yep that's true. Back in the day I was getting accepted to places without a degree or experience and now they don't even look at you if they see just three things. Now you need real live projects that have done well and many other things. I regret leaving my tech job back in the day, I thought I would get another when the time comes and I need more money.

I think it’s so important to have an idea of what you want to build before you enter a bootcamp. Not having a plan means you’ll not be able to ask the right questions.

Man, I have a full time job just doing office work. My whole life I've spent on computers and I always thought I would end up doing something computer related. But I went from highschool to college and took a programming course and it just burned me out pretty fast. The amount of work they shovel onto your plate that isn't even programming related is crazy. I was preparing english lectures and business presentations, and all sorts of shit, and then on top of that they want you to learn some pretty advanced programming stuff towards the end of 2nd year and even more advanced 3rd year. Anyways, so i burned out and took a 2 year software support diploma instead of pursuing the 3 year programming diploma. Part of me regrets it. But at the time i wasn't looking to be a programmer i wanted to be in web design. But that landscape has changed so much now that IDK that I even want to be a part of it. There are so many website builders and frameworks out there. Then i recently heard that someone I know who had no interest in computers took a 2yr bootcamp and is working as a software engineer. This really shocked me, and got me thinking about a programming bootcamp. But part of me thinks that if I wanted to program I would have taught myself it by now. Like I know the basics and I can make python scripts and batch files and a bit of php and a trickle of a hundred other things. if it was my passion i probably would have taken it further. idk, im really on the fence.

Totally agree that you should explore free resources to make sure you are interested. I am mostly self-taught, but never developed something to at least a working finished product. Work in finance now, but I have been interested in taking Chegg Skills certificates in Front & Backend Web Development since it is free through my employer. Can't say no to something free. But for those that want to get their feet wet, try these free resources first: www.freecodecamp.org/ www.theodinproject.com/
