30 companies interviewed 20 students this last Friday for 5 minutes each.
On average each student was invited to 6 companies for further interviews. This experiment only works if we're totally transparent so I'll be updating this community and our blog with numbers as soon as we have them.
The spring's tuition was 6k, and 100% refunded on hire. The summer is 11k with 5k refunded on hire. Summer will be 2 weeks longer and will have at least twice as many mentors per student.
- zdgman 15y agoThanks Kabuks! I am glad the team is being transparent with the numbers and that you clarified the rise in tuition. At 11K this still provides a lot of value. Does the team do any exit interviews for the graduates? I would also love to know what percentage of the class went from 0 programming experience to junior developer (I am assuming these types of people would be very rare like an overnight success).
- kabuks 15y agoYes, we did an exit interview, we're pulling together the numbers and will post them in the next week. We're definitely very interested in your second question too. It's going to be a few weeks before folks get offers and accept them, but I'm 100% committed to these numbers being transparent. Stay posted.
- zdgman 15y agoI am sure there will be another Hacker News article announcing the numbers. Thanks again for the responses.
