    Become an international Fullstack Engineer from Japan

    I have graduated from the immersive program on June 2018.

    The reasons I selected Code Chrysalis from a lot of similar programs in Japan are: 

    1. JavaScript: The program uses JavaScript as the main language because JavaScript is the only language work in web browsers. 
    2. Fast-learning skill: Engineers are expected to have a lot of knowledge and experience, here you experience like a drinking water from a fire hose. You cannot avoid getting this skill.

    Set yourself up to win

    While teaching English for many years in Japan and working on some technical projects at my school, I discovered that I love programming. I wanted to change careers. I spent many months preparing on my own for interviewing for software engineering positions in Japan. When the time came, I discovered that I was *almost* ready. In the interviews that I had, I was able to hold my own, but I was missing the spark to inspire a job offer.

    It was clear that I needed more experience with m...

    Various software engineer skills

    Code Chrysalis tells you not just engineering but presentation, networking and mindset.

    As to software engineering, you can learn fundamentals, frontend and backend to be a full stack software engineer. When you learn each element, you need to understand the concept, implement example applications, and explain what you have understood through pair programming. Staffs help you to do so, but they won't give everything you need. You need to google for anything you need, which is neces...

    Very immersive program

    It's not for beginners but if you have passion of learning software skills I think you can make it until the end of this course. 

    In my case, I have an experience of programming for about 6 years so actually, I focused on getting communication skills in English. But I learned modern software development skills a lot such as TDD, Heroku CI, GraphQL and so on.

    The reason why I put rate 4 in "Overall Experience" and "Curriculum" is that I felt easy in the beginning of this...

    Great experience

     

    I traveled from Iran to join this bootcamp, It was totally great experience!☺️ 

    The good point about this bootcamp is that they teach you how to learn fast. 

    You will experience extreme programming, Agile and so many other stuffs. It's like working in a real company. You'll learn pair programming, TDD, team work.

    It's not like that you join this bootcamp and just improve your coding skills, you also learn about soft skills which you should be aware...

    Foundations is fun, but not as easy as you might think

    I work in tourism but because of the pandemic, I found myself with a lot of time on my hands, so this summer I found myself joining some random events and taking online courses about programming. I come from a completely non-technical background, so I was surprised that it wasn't as hard as I thought it would be. But after a few weeks, I was discouraged by the slow progress I was making, and, at the same time, I wasn't even sure I was learning the right language. I found out about coding...

    The road to software engineer

    It's not an easy to learn new things even if this is what you're interested in. 
    For me, programming is cool thing that I'd wanted to acquire for years. 
    However, I got to realize that the thing required me so much efforts that I gave it up easily.

    In my case, I've experienced to work as a junior engineer in Japanese IT company for year. Even though, It is hard to learn modern development by myself since there're quite ton of new things to learn.

    I also wanted...

    The best decision I've ever made

    I don’t know if my review will do justice. This coding boot camp isn’t just a school. They’ve become my family, and it has changed my life dramatically. I had done a little bit of JavaScript before, but I was lacking knowledge. I also had no idea where to start. There’s so much information online but it made absolutely no sense to me.

    Joining Code Chrysalis was the best investment I’ve ever made in my entire life. I borrowed money to get in and to pay off bills because I was dirt...

    New set of skills

    (Note: My company supported me during the program and I'm still working at the same company, that explains why I set the "Job support" to not applicable.)

    Before going through this program, I had already been working as an DevOps engineer on a totally different technology stack. 
    And this program gave me a new set of skills that I'm pretty sure I'll benefit a lot in my career. 

    Here are some good points.
    - A decent understanding of JavaScript and a good exposu...

    Not another full-stack bootcamp

    Code Chrysalis provided us with much more than a regular full-stack bootcamp will probably do. I was able to acquire all the backend skills (I was a frontend developer) that I was hoping to learn, but also there were great opportunities that I didn't expect to have before the course. I'll mention 3 of them.

    (1) Learn how to learn - You get to learn how to learn new things and how to solve problems by yourself. Asking others for answers is easy but it doesn't help you to grow as a...

    Succinct, authentic and feature-packed

    I came into this program with a strong computer science background but weak web development experience.  This course as purported goes back-to-front covering all the messy details of creating a modern web app framework to completion.  The second half of the course is dedicated to creating individual and collaborative full stack projects in an Agile workflow.  Instructor quality is high and selected students are friendly and passionate.  Worth every penny.
