Career change in 30s
Before taking the leap to change careers, I was self-studying programming for about a year and a half. During that time I was working as an English teacher in Tokyo and I realized I wanted to transition into an industry with greater professional growth opportunities.The course was challenging, and while some concepts were covered quickly, it encouraged me to continue to learn on my own and fill in the gaps after the course was finished.I graduated in 2021, when the ...Before taking the leap to change careers, I was self-studying programming for about a year and a half.

After working with the career support team every other week via zoom, I gained insight into how to improve my resume and approaches to job applications. In the end, I received a few job offers and have been working as a full-time software engineer ever since. Taking the immersive course has truly been one of the best decisions I’ve ever made. - AnonymousGraduate • IMMERSIVE FULL-TIME [ENGLISH] - full-time 12-week software engineering course • TokyoApr 02, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
Intense but valuable bootcamp.
Code Chrysalis is a bootcamp that has gained a reputation for producing skilled and well-rounded developers. As someone who recently completed the course, I can attest to the fact that it is an intense and fast-paced program that requires a significant amount of dedication and hard work. However, despite the challenging nature of the course, I found the experience and network to be well worth it.

As someone who recently completed the course, I can attest to the fact that it is an intense and fast-paced program that requires a significant amount of dedication and hard work. However, despite the challenging nature of the course, I found the experience and network to be well worth it.
One of the biggest takeaways for me was the confidence that I gained in my ability to learn difficult things quickly. The pace of the course is quite fast, but I found that I was able to keep up and get my assignments done. This was a valuable lesson for me and has given me the confidence to tackle other challenging projects in the future.
Another benefit of the program is the open-endedness of the Polyglottal project. This project allowed us to explore a variety of technologies and to apply what we had learned to a real-world problem. This was an excellent opportunity to put our skills into practice and to gain experience working in a team.
However, one of the tough realizations I had during the course was when I was paired with a group that didn't have the same interests or career goals as me. This meant that we were stuck with a project that didn't benefit my portfolio in the long term. This is something to keep in mind when negotiating with your groupmates, but I still learned a lot from the experience.
Overall, I would say that the course is more likely to prepare you for molding into a company than venturing off to be an entrepreneur or a freelancer. If your goal is to get a higher paying job in Japan, then it is likely that you will succeed if you are able to succeed at Code Chrysalis's course. The network and connections that you make during the program are invaluable and will help you to land a great job in the industry. While the course is fast-paced, it is a worthwhile investment for anyone looking to take their coding skills to the next level. - Anonymoussoftware engineer (mobile) • Graduate • The Immersive Bootcamp [ENGLISH/ONSITE] - full-time 12-week software engineering course • TokyoJan 10, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Accelerated my life.
It was crucial for me.
I moved to Japan with my wife without a detailed plan. I was just going to "figure things out" as my previous career was not for me and I wanted a serious change in life...
I made "it" happen and C.C. was a big part of me getting a job in Tokyo.
It took me three months of studying to pass the interview to be accepted to the course. The precourse lasted two months. The course itself was a full time of three months... and I mean FULL TIME ;)

The staff has done a great job. I'm impressed. ;) - Anonymousnatejneumann@yahoo.com • Student • TokyoJul 10, 2018Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Wonderful Boot camp
I have experience with the Foundations course, and have also sat in on the Immersive and worked with the graduates of that program. Code Chrysalis is an amazing bootcamp -- they do a fantastic job of preparing students for professional work in software engineering -- and they provide both the Foundations and Immersive courses, so people of all entry levels can achieve that career transformation.

Lots of opportunity to learn
Very immersive course ( with a lot of homework ) and enough fundamentals and practical skills you can achieve to be a professional software engineer. Instructors and curriculum provide not just programming skills but soft skills such as presentation, communication and team building which are very important to be a great engineer.

In my case, I didn't have any professional background and that is why every day is so challenging. But thanks to their intensive support, I could manage to get through it and I had got very confident as an engineer at the end.
They also provide curriculum and support for career planning and job searching. That helped me get a very good job opportunity even though I did not have any professional background. I really appreciate all the help they gave us.
