So what do you say to the 50,000~ bootcamps students doing this currently?
I did a bootcamp in 10 weeks and got hired immediately. People may be against that for whatever reason but I was able to meaningfully contribute to my company, and it allowed me to learn while working in the industry. Been going 2.5 years now, and admittedly, I still have a ton to learn, but I'd like to think I'm not a fraud at this point.
- okl 8y agoWhat do you say to the students that do not get hired?
- leesec 8y agoYMMV. My bootcamp had 90% placement rate within 90 days and has for years. This question kind of ridiculous though, no education system works for every single participant. There are plenty of people with B.A.'s not getting hired. Even people with law degrees occasionally. Much less financial and time risk with a bootcamp tho.
- mkolodny 8y agoYou can pay $200K and go to university for 4 years and still not get hired. That's more likely for non-CS degrees, but true nonetheless.
