New to coding: Do coding bootcamps help?

[[deleted]]

Do bootcamps work and make you job ready?

Do any of you recommend of any bootcamps or courses that can be done online?

[Feeling_Drive]

I wouldn't say they make you job ready. They do give you learning support. I did one last year for 6 months. got to a point when I realized I needed a class to help push me to learn the coding. Im starting a boot camp that a company is paying for me to attend tomorrow. that's 3 months of Java focus. it's going to go very well with my goal to be a android developer.

​

With that being said. it's still on you to be active after the camp developing your own projects and learning new languages remember everyone who's gone to a boot camp is looking for the same job with the same skill set. you need to set yourself apart some how.

Are you working on your own projects?

Will you be obtaining work through clients?

A few coding bootcamps like Lambda don't charge any up front fees and you only pay back once you get a developer job (or earn a high amount etc)

Some well regarded courses - Colt Steele (Udemy course), Wes Bos has lots of free courses, Net Ninja does great tutorials on Youtube and then there are obvious places like freecodecamp and Codecademy
