I read this amazing article today, which really caught my attention because I also spent time learning how to code and even did an online coding boot camp. So many of these “businesses” and boot camps have popped up with guarantees, promises and untruths, getting people’s hopes up. It is really hard to get a programming job, especially going a non-traditional route…and it really is hard trying to become proficient enough at programming to be job-ready or hirable, especially after only 3 or 4 months.
Very sad article. Amanda Laucher has no business being in law school, let alone, apparently (from some digging I did), one as elite as Northwestern.
Many West Virginians like Ms. Frame signed up for Mined Minds, quitting their jobs or dropping out of school for the prized prospect of a stable and lucrative career. But the revival never came. Almost none of those who signed up for Mined Minds are working in programming now.
“Every single one of them” finds work, Ms. Laucher said of the boot camp graduates, in a 2017 interview. “They all find a job.”
Ms https://ed-hrvatski.com/kamagra/. Bolyard wondered whether Mined Minds simply couldn’t afford the apprenticeships. “They were just making excuses to get rid of people,” she said.
They Were Promised Coding Jobs in Appalachia. Now They Say It Was a Fraud.
