Bar Supervisor to Software Developer

How did you find your time on the bootcamp?

Northcoders was very fast paced, especially for me, but it was very worthwhile and I learned a lot that I don't think I could have done if I'd tried to do it myself. The tutors where all great and patient!

What were you doing before the bootcamp and what made you apply?

I had been working as a bar supervisor for the past two years after coming home from travelling and working on the cruise ships. The job felt to me like a dead end pretty much and I wanted to move into an industry where I knew there would be more opportunity and jobs. Coding just made sense to learn to me.

What was the support like on the course?

All the teaching staff are great! My tutors Sam, Paul C, Paul R and Ant are all a credit to you!

How much support did you receive from Northcoders with your job search after the course?

Aaron and Steph were personable and great to communicate with when I finished.
