I just signed up for Hatchways and filled in the profile. The next step says to do the assessment but that completing it within 24 hours would improve chances greatly. It's not clear in the instruction:
- Has the timer already started or does it start once I click on the [Start] button?
- Am I coding this in some sort of in-browser environment or am I creating a repository from scratch and submitting some sort of link?
- If the answer is the second, can I just use my own boilerplate? (ex: I want to do frontend and would just use my own boilerplate of React+SASS+Flow+Redux+etc. and ESLint+Prettier+stylelint)
- Lastly, my previous question makes me sound more experienced. However, I'm in a very odd spot. CS degree but switched careers to teaching over half a decade ago. I'm trying to switch back now but have no real experience other than being self-taught. I'm basically switching careers. Have you considered partnering with the various development bootcamps to tap their talent pool? How about partnering with online programs?
I think what you're doing is great. I hope you're able to make a real change in the tech industry.
- jaclynmling 7y agoThanks for your comment. To address your questions: -no the timer does not start until you hit 'start' button! -you are coding in your own environment an uploading a zip file once you're done -Naturally, we have definitely a large in flow of candidates from bootcamps. We don't have any formal partnerships yet though. Would love to eventually see how we can partner with online programs as well.
