Compare Camps

Will I get a job after graduating from a bootcamp?

  • Network and resources — If you’re attending a bootcamp in hope of changing careers, then you should find out what services are offered. Some bootcamps set up prospective interviews with potential employers, while others offer resume workshops and provide a list of hiring partners.
  • Job Placement — Consider a bootcamp’s job placement rate 30, 60, 90 and 120 days after the program. While some schools like App Academy SF only require you to pay if you get a job, most bootcamps don’t follow this model. Some bootcamps provide this information publicly via an industry organization called CIRR, while others may require some digging on Course Report.

  • Before applying to the bootcamp, do your homework:
    • Read about coding bootcamps and visit their website.
    • If you can't find a Student Outcomes Report easily, ask the school to provide one (along with their methodology)
    • Read programming bootcamp questions on Quora to read answers from bootcamps
    • Read bootcamp reviews and interviews with Alumni
    • Visit the bootcamp space and talk to an instructor if possible
  • Where can I go with my bootcamp education?
    • Get a job as a junior developer at a large company you've always admired.
    • Join a small dev team at a startup.
    • Take an apprenticeship and learn from the masters for a few months after graduating.
    • Become a technical co-founder and help launch a product.
    • Freelance while you travel the world.
    • Work for another coding bootcamp as an instructor, teaching assistant, or support staff.
    • Find a job as a technical product manager.
    • Take on new projects at your current company (and get a promotion or a raise while you're at it)!
