I don't know that there is anything special about Prime over other reputable bootcamps. It might be easier to get a job in the agency world (since I know Prime has a lot of tie-ins to the industry) - which is fairly infamous for paying below market wages for entry level positions. I've personally never noticed a difference in candidate quality based on whether they did Prime or any other bootcamp.
- germinalphrase 5y agoThank you for the insight. Any recommendations on how to gauge company reputations on the local level without having many industry connections? Are orgs like UXPA-MN worth a damn?
- debaserab2 5y agoI don't know much about organizations like UXPA-MN. I don't know if I have any good advice beyond the obvious things like Glassdoor. I worked a couple agency jobs early on in my career and while it was a good couple years for career experience, it was also my hardest working (as in hours) and least paying years I ever had. Once I switched to product development I found much higher quality jobs in both pay and work/life balance. That can be kind of tough to find in TC compared to other cities, though.
