Ask HN: Graduating Code Academy Mar 28th..Pointers?
I am planning on starting Code Academy April 9th of this year and would love to hear any pointers from those who have already gone through it??
- lachyg 15y agoI would highly recommend http://devbootcamp.com/ http://devbootcamp.com/ instead. The program runs (officially) 5 days a week from 9AM til 6PM, but most students stay after hours, and you'll often see people hacking away past midnight! The program runs for 10 weeks and at the end a hiring day is run. Throughout the program guest speakers come in (e.g. the CEO of IGN) and we have a variety of mentors that help us out during the week. Disclaimer: I'm a current DevBootcamp student.
- gamechangr 15y agoDevbootcamp appears to be the real deal. I have emailed Shereef a couple times, but the real deal breaker = the start dates. I would have to wait 3 months (june 10th) and I would prefer to start ASAP. That said, I would love to hear a little about your experience. Do you think it was worthy of the time commitment? I have considered doing both!
