A Solid Bootcamp
First off, the course is challenging and absolutely requires a lot of time. (There's a reason why it's "full-time".) For most of the course, I was spending 60+ hours a week on classwork. If you enjoy learning and can put in the time, you will love it.

For most of the course, I was spending 60+ hours a week on classwork. If you enjoy learning and can put in the time, you will love it.
I had the benefit of going into the cybersecurity course with a prior educational background in Computer Science and Network/Security. (Trained, but not certified in Network+, Security+, and CCNA.) While this prior knowledge helped a lot, the school makes a good effort to make the course accessible to people who don't have a background in IT. The catch is, those students will have to work that much harder to keep up.
The first half of the course was focused more on building foundational IT skills like utilizing the command line, basic networking principles, and coding. The 2nd half was more security-specific. The course did not teach to any specific certification exam; however, they did provide a copy of CompTIA's CertMaster training material for Security+ and reimbursed the cost of the exam when I passed it. (The process for registering for the exam and getting the refund was a hassle, but everything worked out.)
The exams were "Can you find the right answer?" using available resources rather than than "Did you memorize everything?". They also provided a balance of multiple choice knowledge-based questions and Practical Exercises like guided labs.
The instructors were former industry professionals, so they were able to relate personal work-experience to many topics discussed in class. They also tied in current events and provided good resources for following up on topics or just staying informed.
The career services were, overall, very good. They took time throughout the course to provide workshops on things like job hunting, resume building, mock interviews, etc. The career coaches were fantastic. They were friendly, enthusiastic and went above and beyond to offer help. Their services are also retained after graduation so you can (and will) continue to use them as you actively seek employment. The biggest problem I had was that they did not yet have a good talent pipeline for hiring students right after graduation. (I have seen other schools brag about that kind of thing.) They looked like they were working on establishing formal affiliates, so things might be different in the coming years. Regardless, the career staff sill worked very hard and helped a lot.
The cost of the school was fairly comparable to other institutions. For the veterans out there, this school works well with the VA and a lot of alumni are former military. - SavannahSoftware engineer • Graduate • Fullstack Academy Full-Time Software Engineering Immersive • OnlineOct 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

I was so lucky to have them in my engineering journey. Finishing the program is the first part of difficulties.

They gave us practical and real-world coding examples and pairing coding simulations. I was so lucky to have them in my engineering journey. Finishing the program is the first part of difficulties. However, I have to confess one thing - finding a job is 100 times harder than completing the program, especially for an international student like me. I went to the career center at NEU over 30 times, but none of them could help me get a job. People always told me that I need to do networking. But how!! No one really guided me through the networking process. I even did not know how to ask for help or where to find a resource. Until Dezzi came into my life, she is my interview saver, life changer, game changer, and so on. Seriously, I had never passed the official interviews before meeting Dezzi. After speaking with her and working with her, I got two official offers in 110 days!!!! Dezzi guided me step by step, phrase by phrase to find a job. Thus, when I hear someone complains about she/he could not find a job and does not know how to do networking. I just want to tell them why do not book an appointment with Dezzi. She is full of skills and strategies to help you go through those difficulties. YEAH, I do have skills on dealing with coding problems, but without Dezzi, I am just a person who knows how to code. That's it. That's why we need a professional career coach like Dezzi. Because of Dezzi, I do not need to take a long way and burn myself out to land a job. She made my life 1000 times easier. I need Dezzi. Future students need Dezzi. - Andrew GrantGraduate • Fullstack Academy Cybersecurity Analytics Bootcamp (Part-Time) • New York CityOct 13, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Too Much Change
While I can't speak for every cohort I can say that mine had to deal with a lot of change and chaos unnecessarily. From week two up until the last week of class, we had staff members and mentors (who acted in a TA-type role) quitting and sometimes being replaced. The replacements were never as good, and if staff members weren't replaced we were added to other people's already busy work loads. Our new mentors were so unreliable that our lead instructors (Alec and Bobby, who were incredibl...While I can't speak for every cohort I can say that mine had to deal with a lot of change and chaos unnecessarily. From week two up until the last week of class, we had staff members and mentors (who acted in a TA-type role) quitting and sometimes being replaced. The replacements were never as good, and if staff members weren't replaced we were added to other people's already busy work loads. Our new mentors were so unreliable that our lead instructors (Alec and Bobby, who were incredible) had to stretch themselves thinner to help groups that they weren't in charge of. It added a lot of extra stress to an already intense learning environment, and I think it took away from my learning experience.
As for the curriculum, most of the skills I learned were very relevant to my job search, but they don't always teach the most modern version of some technologies, especially React. I think it would make more sense to modernize the curriculum more to allow for students to focus on learning algorithms and other relevant tech after the course is over, since there's not much time to focus on those during the bootcamp.
Overall, I think this course prepared me well to join a brand new field, but I am unsure if I feel comfortable recommending the program to others because of all the staff issues. - Ndeh TOIKADESep 04, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
