I agree here. Tech bootcamp did NOTHING for my tech career except $10,000 taken. Employers are now seeing low credibility in graduates, and just preferring to stick with candidates who have background, especially work experience.
This is great advice.. I have 15 plus years of experience in Tech and you right you can definitely tell when someone isn’t a good fit almost immediately
I think it’s even pass that. You have to have some basic knowledge or an inept technical attitude to understand a pick up some of these concepts. I was self-taught and I’ve been working in a technical field for 30 years now. I was naturally technically inclined at a young age. Had I had the same access and resources at the age of nine that Steve Jobs had who knows where I would be now. I say this is say that to all my career I’ve of course, have managed and train and work along many people and many different companies and what I have found there are those that you can tell were taught in school and there are those that it is just in them even if they have the degrees and the certificates to back it up. There’s a Holistic thought that needs to be put front when you start to think about technologies and how they work and how they relate, and if people can’t absorb and understand the basic sentiments of zeros and ones leading all the way up to bites, megabytes and command. The ONs and the Offs, then they won’t really fully understand technology and how it all really connects together or being able to connect together and have a true natural ability to do analysis of any issue. You can train people to program and to write a language and they’ll not understand anything else because they’re not able to connect the dots. I have a manager at sometimes things that I don’t know enough technically yet I know more than her. I’m not a programmer. I wasn’t trained as a programmer. I took a few programming classes and decided I didn’t wanna go with that route But when it comes to understanding the data and create a databases and figure out issues and problems I’m way better at it than she is. My job is to be able to write a requirement and manage that until people how to do a certain thing and I give that to someone like her that has a skill to write the code out in the language on which she was trained. However, I wanna make a small question. I’m not saying that I’m not a program because I’m not I do not program for living, but I can write C++. I can write in for Tran. I can decode in Fort Tran. These are older languages. This is something she has no idea what to do. I’ll probably even is seen. Again basic tenement of technology not just programming.
We have talking about predatory people coming on this channel to sell their courses. Here is today, you invite someone who is telling the truth. Alleluia!!
@@UnixBro I've never brought a predatory person on here ... A course and a bootcamp.are different #2 the reputation and what a program offers is the real key
@@TechTualChatter a bootcamp is sum of courses in a short period of time. Courses seller can also be predatory. Anyway, I like your channel. Just avoid bringing some of these predatory sellers. Have a good one, Bro
He gained a subscriber from me with this interview. I was listening to the interview at work yesterday, without seeing the dude, but this guy sounds solid and genuine. God bless the tech disciple and techtual!! 🙏🏽
As someone who did one in Austin, I can’t say if it’s a waste of money or not (that’s up to the individual and how they take advantage of the resources) but for me I learned 90% of what I needed to outside on my own. I was lucky enough to find back to back jobs after moving to Germany but many of my classmates definitely got exposed technically and ended up going back to their warehouse/barista job.
Commenting to see which one you are talking about. I’m looking at cyber tech in Austin right now. Still on the fence about it because I’m between that and an associates. CyberTex is more align with my schedule.
Definitely needed this. I really wanted to do a bootcamp but I see don't go that way. I went through my computer career. I need to get my certs this year
Are people really getting past an interview because of a bootcamp? Like I get the interview and interest, but then you interview and get asked questions!!!! How does that work?!?!
My city has a free boot camp. The classes you take are so thorough that convert to college credits through the community college. You absolutely have to do more learning outside of the bootcamp but I also had to do that whole earning my degree. I would definitely stay away from for profits bootcamps just like for profit colleges. Been a developer for three years now

The problem is that people rely on the BootCamp and not working outside to gain knowledge.
Some stuff you just won't know unless you've gotten access too it at work

How do I get into help desk?
@warriorclassmedia get helpdesk skills and apply
Without my bootcamp I wouldn't have the opportunities I have now.
