DSDJ - the mindset shift you need to get a Data Science job, and anything else you set as your personal goal

What it won't do: it won't do the reading, the coding and all the hard work you need to do anyway to get through your gaps and achieve your goals, whether it's a promotion or your first data science job
What it will do: it will offer the curriculum and the resources to go through all the technical areas, build your projects and portfolio, prepare for interviews, your CV your LinkedIn profile, your presentation skills, anything you need in the end to end process of personal transformation that starts with landing your fist Data Science job. And not eveyone will get one straight away, but you will have all the arsenal needed to be able to achieve your goals.
Kyle and team have done stellar work, definitely recommended.

With great mentors who are always ready to help, be it on regular office hours or slack to an AMAZING community on slack. I get guidance when I post a question on slack in less than an hour!! Then comes the awesome set of modules! Kyle has worked really hard on putting together such perfect well-defined modules. There's information all the way from your mindset to technical stuff to getting interviews to clearing every round of the hiring process! DSDJ has been the best decision of my life!!

IT support takes to long to get back to you and down really help much. I was pretty much on my own the entire way. If there are professional arguments they claim things that are not explicitly outlined in the agreement contracts so it's like a grey area or broad. The job guarantee policy when they track you upon post graduation as you have to meet requirements they tell you quietly about what you need to do. If you miss deadlines on job guarantee there is a lag in the system telling you about you have a warning so when graduate fixes meeting deadlines you are bombarded with more warnings until they void your job guarantee. Stay away and choose a different program.my mentor is allowed to miss deadlines for my grades and be late to calls and not even show up and there upset at students that join a call slightly late. This is a horrible program and I already graduated but I will never recommend because they have shady business practices altogether.Overall1.0Curriculum1.0Job support1.0Instructors1.0 -

I had Master's degrees in a healthcare field and in data analytics. Why I was applying quite a bit, I wasn't getting invited to interviews. The DSDJ team was tremendously helpful in recommending changes to the way I was marketing myself that led to interviews. Eventually, I had a choice between one good and two great offers in the same week.
The coursework is comprehensive. It starts with mindset and goes through the soft and hard skills necessary to be successful. I found it was essential to absorb and apply all the lessons. DSDJ offers many mentoring classes each week. I attended calls with every mentor available and found all quite helpful in guiding students through a wide range of sticking points. Each benefitted me, personally. As well, DSDJ curated free and inexpensive online and book resources for a variety of skills.
I felt like DSDJ was well worth the investment.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Great Course
When it comes to resumes, marketing yourself, and interview prep, you're not going to find a better course. Also, they have office hours 6 days a week, which is very very useful and also not that common among courses.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

The office hours are a great opportunity to express, define and discuss your approach towards your career in Data Science. Not only Kyle and the other mentors are resourceful, but they are welcoming and provide a great medium to discuss your dreams. It might not be for everyone, but for me it’s worth the money. The rest of what I need is in abundance on the Internet and mostly free.Overall5.0Curriculum4.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

Kyle's course helps you first get your mindset straight, then helps you with data science. I'm not sure if it was a coincidence, but after DSDJ, more recruiters started to reach out to me and I was getting further in interviews. Eventually, I received an offer as a data analyst at a consulting firm. After I left that role, I re-used DSDJ's mindset and interviewing resources to land another analyst role at Google.
I only used about 30% of DSDJ's potential (there's just so much) but was able to find the success I defined for myself.Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job support5.0Instructors5.0 -

A very comprehensive course. Kyle is a great mentor, motivator and guide. He tells it like it is, does not sugarcoat it. Data science is not an easy thing to master, but Kyle and his team's can-do attitude is a big plus for anyone who enrolls in this course!Overall5.0Curriculum5.0Job supportN/AInstructors5.0 -
