Two questions: Are you in San Francisco, and which bootcamp was this?
- wh-uws 11y agoYeah these are vitally important questions. The curriculums and the level rigor of the different bootcamps varies widely. Some have a very high bar for entry and are basically just a way for someone who could quickly become competent (i.e. someone with a deep math or some type of engineering background) to ramp up on coding. Others just let anyone in and teach very basic things so the graduates level would vary widely as well.
- seibelj 11y agoI'm in Boston, the salaries here are high but not SF levels. I'd rather not say which boot camp to preserve relationships and not malign their organization. They were very helpful, I just simply think hiring straight from boot camps doesn't work for my method of managing software development organizations.
