Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:08 AM Author: bronze church building it's comprehensive, intensive (30 40 hr. weeks) and involves many projects (which are the best way to learn). you don't have to pay shit up front and you don't have to pay anything if you don't get a 40k+ job.
i taught myself through a random hodgepodge of online resources (youtube, the few e-courses that were available, codecademy, etc.) back in the day and wish something like this was available.
main drawback obviously is the time investment. so probably not for someone with a job supporting a family, etc. |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:22 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard any company that offers the course for free if you don't get a job is worthless. they're devaluing their time and it will show. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868139) |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:26 AM Author: haunting factory reset button This ia retarded thinking. Clearly, the fact that they won't charge for it unless you make money means the chances are high that you'll get a job. I'm sure they must have screenings like app academy. What kind of business can thrive by not making money and not getting paid, genius?
Why again did you drop out of this field? |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:33 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard You sound stupid. If you're remotely competent in this field, you're either making money on your own or everyone knows that your time is worth money and won't hesitate to pay you. Coding academies are fraud, and the worst ones are the ones that say you won't pay a dime unless you get a job. More than likely, every coding academy is a long-form application process for the companies funding them. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868153) |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:38 AM Author: bronze church building how are coding academies "fraud"? it's literally just shit you would do anyway only without having to dick around looking for resources/think of projects. or motivating yourself. which is probably a decent format for people who prefer not to self-teach. and in this case, they aren't taking much of your income.
I know people who have gotten jobs due to coding academies. why would they be more "fraud" than any other type of trade school? |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:41 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard Well, obviously a pumo knows better. I'm just offering my insight, which comes from nearly 20 years of programming experience. If you can't motivate yourself to do the work on your own projects, you have no business coding someone else's stuff. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868171) |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:47 AM Author: bronze church building why would you assume being "pumo" has jack shit to do with what I know? I've worked in the industry for 6 years and do well enough. Not discounting your experience, necessarily.
"If you can't motivate yourself to do the work on your own projects, you have no business coding someone else's stuff."
I don't think that's entirely true. Plenty of people can become useful developers without necessarily wanting to do their own projects. I don't think that's the right way but there seems to be a decent part of the population that works just for money and doesn't care whether or not they enjoy their jobs. 99% of lawyers, for example. hell, i've even had developer jobs i didn't *like* because they were using a shitty stack or CMS. |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:40 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard Honestly? Know someone in the field. It's just like anything else. Barring that, contribute to open source projects and build up a portfolio. Eventually you'll get noticed and hired.
If you're just looking for some bullshit $60k/year job, you can probably do just fine on those major recruiting web sites or linkedin. However, don't ever expect to move up or make more. Also, the concept of lateraling really doesn't exist in the tech world. You're basically stuck within 20-30% of whatever salary you start at. |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:49 AM Author: fishy dragon bbw this is bullshit there is no "best method" for getting a coding job. i mean let's see how i've gotten my four coding jobs over 10 years: 1. craigslist 2010 2. craigslist 2011 3. some GC Bullshit(Indeed,Monster,etc.)-f500 company (2011) 4. upWork->fulltime (first upWork contract 2018)
so basically it doesn't really matter how you find the job you just gotta show niggas you can code better than the other niggas that be applying. craigslist doesn't work anymore but using that was just as random as upwork. |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:54 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard upwork absolutely sucks, though (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868188) |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:57 AM Author: fishy dragon bbw i can't complain my first contract resulted in FTE (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868198) |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 6:00 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard That's pretty awesome. Was it at a decent salary, like your hourly rate x 2000? (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868202) |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 6:06 AM Author: fishy dragon bbw lol of course i wouldn't have taken less than that
the only thing that sucks is i have no benefits and get 1099 vs W-2
I think that's the way of the world though. I paid $288 a month at a F500 in NYC I pay like $100 more here for healthcare. |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 6:07 AM Author: Nubile Gay Wizard Oh jesus christ, they're kind of fucking you. Hopefully you did the right thing and inflated your hourly rate on upwork to make up for the fact you likely weren't getting 2,000 hours of work per year.
You're absolutely an employee and they're complete scum for giving you a 1099 instead of a W-2. |
|
Date: September 23rd, 2018 6:10 AM Author: fishy dragon bbw i mean it's hard to feel that bad because I work remotely for a coastal company
the cost of living makes it worth it. and then when you think about commuting... |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 6:14 AM Author: fishy dragon bbw nah i live in Texas cause it's no-tax and I inherited some land here from my grandma a few years back. so no tax, no rent. the prevailing wage is about $15/hour. I make more than like everyone except doctors. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=4084651&forum_id=2#36868216) |

Date: September 23rd, 2018 5:40 AM Author: bronze church building it's a customer assurance, and clearly it's working for them. they wouldn't be doing it if they couldn't afford to based on job placement (or lack thereof).
neither would this pricing model be popular if it wasn't feasible.
