Choosing Northcoders: My Top 5 Reasons for Taking the Plunge into Codeville
Today, I'm spilling the beans on why I took the Northcoders route over all the other bootcamps out there. Buckle up, because we're looking into the top five reasons that made Northcoders my ultimate coding haven.
1. Time is of the Essence
First things first, let's talk hours. I did my homework via good ol' gov.co.uk and found out that Northcoders offers one of the longest curriculums at 13 weeks among all the options I researched. Who needs a short stint when you can soak up the coding wisdom for an extended period?
2. Stalking Graduates Like It's My Job
I admit it—I'm a research fanatic. Before committing to Northcoders, I went full detective mode. I scrolled through LinkedIn profiles of bootcamp graduates from various providers to see who's rocking the tech world post bootcamp. Northcoders consistently had graduates thriving in their careers, and that spoke volumes.
3. Pre-course Goodies for the Win
Imagine this: learning the basics of JavaScript before the actual course kicks off. Genius, right? Northcoders gets it. Their pre-course structure isn't just a warm-up; it's a sneak peek into the kind of people you'll be coding alongside. Props to the ones who powered through the pre-course – you're my kind of coding comrades!
4. Knowledge Galore in 13 Weeks
Once I got a peek at the curriculum, I was hooked. Thirteen weeks jam-packed with 520 hours of lectures, seminars, pair programming, and solo coding? That's more than the average university student gets in a year! It's like a crash course in coding brilliance, and I'm here for every minute of it.
5. The Cosy Coding Community
Last but certainly not least, let's talk community vibes. Northcoders isn't just about coding; it's about creating a community where everyone feels like they belong. Daily roundups, mentors, career coaches – it's like a coding family reunion every day.
So there you have it – five rock-solid reasons why I waved the Northcoders flag. Whether you're a coding newbie or a seasoned developer, finding the right boot camp is like choosing a Hogwarts house. Northcoders, consider me sorted and ready to code my way to glory! #NorthcodersJourney #CodingAdventure
