Just fill out this form: https://forms.gle/esQMbaRjQt9SkD1XA --------------------------------------------------- I invited 3 graduates on to review Turing, a software engineering program. These reviews are honest, no-BS, reviews meant to get past the marketing that each coding school puts out there. All 3 went through the front end track and shared the pros and cons. 8 months is a certainly a long time for a full-time immersive program and the students' mental health was certainly one of my concerns. We covered all of it. Hopefully this helps you on your journey. Topics/Questions: 0:00 - Intros 2:55 - Why did you choose Turing? 5:14 - What did you learn? 10:02 - What project were you most proud of by the time you graduated? 13:47 - Cohort size and instructors 16:19 - 80 hours per week!? What about mental health? 20:45 - When you graduated, how well prepared did you feel like you were for a professional developer position? 25:13 - What could they improve? 28:55 - Final piece of advice for aspiring developers 31:51 - Outros Host/Guests: Don Hansen - https://www.linkedin.com/in/donthedeveloper Connie Hong - https://www.linkedin.com/in/connie-h-hong Alexandria Sodemann - https://www.linkedin.com/in/asodemann Joshua Aragon - https://www.linkedin.com/in/joshua-aragon-854275206
