Hi Shashank, i am from India and i am a fresher so if i apply for this bootcamp and even if i get into it, where will I get a job? here in India or in other countries ?. Because you told we need to pay only after we get placed with a minimum of 50000$ and i doubt i can get that huge package here in India

[@kadichidu4171]

@@kiransai4056 i also have the same doubt

[@sebwylleman]

Love that it's taught by you. Plus it couldn't drop at a better time for me! Thank you for doing this Shashank, this means a lot

[@lilliancharboneau7024]

I am currently a student majoring in Business Analytics, but I wanted to congratulate you on launching this program! Data analytics is a fascinating field and I am so happy your making it accessible to a wider range of people! Best of luck on the success of your bootcamp! :D

[@NoArmsJames]

Well, I applied and we will see what happens! After getting through the coursera cert I don't feel ready. I need this!

[@weebcourse1018]

Excellent!

[@ShashankData]

Thanks!

[@Rex_793]

You and masterschool should do more advertising for this!

[@mcolburn3298]

Shashank, I have been accepted to the program and your cohort. I’m excited and also taking a day to consider before I make this big commitment.

[@Hayaboosa]

did you follow through with it?

[@johnnybegood948]

been doing your course in udemy for advanced sql for data enginner. i got tell you. amazing content!! give a shout to brazil 🇧🇷

[@ArmaniEats]

Hi Shashank, is there a full-time version of your bootcamp?

[@martins__23]

Is the BootCamp still available? The link takes me to page not found

[@maisarahmonier2256]

i live in the middle east, how does the job guarantee work for me? i have no problem relocating for the job if it's in uk or usa, also if i do have the job offer it would make it easier for me to get a visa to go to that said country. what do you think shashank?

[@danialtoor2958]

Are having Tableau and Excel skills enough to break in?

[@AmeliaSmithbooks]

What's the estimated time commitment for this, in terms of hours per week? Also what time zone and planned time for the live sessions? I'm considering this as I have tried to self-study but have discovered that having deadlines really helps me.

[@topgearfan2596]

You don't need to pay $15k for someone to enforce deadlines...

[@younggyusohn8613]

Hi Shashank, will there be another bootcamp maybe in around January? I graduate in December and I would love to apply for the bootcamp, but it's just not feasible for me to apply for the June bootcamp.

[@ShashankData]

If this one goes well then yes we'll be launching another cohort!

[@jaderuth9830]

I’m interested in making the switch from healthcare to tech and have been overwhelmed by the amount of boot camps there are. Wheeeeeeeeew!!

[@yankeephan87]

Impressive to be competing at similar price points with companies like Metis!

[@alexemnn]

Still available?

[@kadichidu4171]

I m from India , can I join the course? Do you help in getting remote jobs after completing the course?

[@ShashankData]

Definitely go ahead and apply, for particularly talented candidates we'll make every effort to do so

[@PERSISTENTxMF]

🤘

[@ShashankData]

Thanks Joshua!

[@regardvermooten3643]

Will this be applicable to people outside of the US? I am in South Africa and would be very interested.

[@ShashankData]

Definitely! We will be taking a couple of very talented candidates from outside the US and Europe (because the $50,000 minimum will be hard to hit outside of those markets). Try your hand at the application process and we can discuss further if you make it through

[@regardvermooten3643]

[@manojandmaya]

Hey Shashank, I am trying to decide if this boot camp is for me. I am a Mech Engineer with 20yrs in the industry wanting to switch to Data Analytics/Science. I have been using Datacamp and Coursera a lot. I have completed the Google data Analytics course and I am 3/4th of the way through the IBM Data Science certification course on Coursera. All this for almost free when I compare it to the hefty $15K fee for this boot camp. What would you say is the value proposition for someone like me in this program given where I am in the process ? Do you take private consultations - I would love to talk and figure things out .

[@ShashankData]

Unfortunately I don't take private consultations, (if you apply and get through the process then we can definitely talk privately then [i apologize, I just always have to worry about scalability with private consultations]). I will ALWAYS advocate for trying the free or low-cost approach to breaking into the industry before going to bootcamps. I think the value proposition depends on you as a person, some people work a lot better when learning as part of a cohort of others with 24/7 access to support for any questions that they may have. The support structure from the teachers, myself, and the students is probably the biggest value proposition for someone such as yourself. Depending on who you are, you may or may not find that necessary or useful . This was a great question, thanks for asking and please follow up if you have any other questions.

[@balakrishnaprasad8928]

I'M in India. Can I had a chance to apply for this program

[@ShashankData]

100%. We'll be pretty selective but we can talk it over if you pass the cohorts before you accept anything.

[@topgearfan2596]

WTF $15k? UC Berkeley offers a program for 10k. Why would any intelligent individual pay for your bootcamp when there are more recognized brands that offer a better product for cheaper? Moreover, why anyone would pay for a data bootcamp is beyond me. If you want to a mind-numbing job like a data analyst, go buy some applied math textbooks with solution manuals and teach yourself. You can get these textbooks for free on the internet if you know where to look.

These income sharing schemes are modern day indentured servitude. Don't do it people.

[@yankeephan87]

Yeah it’s pretty wild tbh surprising

[@ShashankData]

I see a properly structured one as just an interest free loan. Upfront payment is always an option if you prefer as well.

[@indiejones4683]

Can you share what you think are the downsides to it?

Only 20 people? Bro what? lol
