Flatiron School offers immersive on-campus and online programs in software engineering, data science, cybersecurity, and product design (UX/UI design). Flatiron School’s immersive courses aim to launch students into fulfilling careers by providing a robust career services framework and dedicated one-on-one coaching post graduation that is included as an added value with the tuition.
The application process asks prospective students to share a bit about themselves and what is driving them to start a career. The process includes speaking with an Admissions representative in a non-technical interview to allow for the opportunity to get to know each other better in a friendly conversation. Applicants will also need to complete a 15-minute critical thinking and problem-solving assessment afterwards. Applicants will receive an acceptance decision from Admissions within 4 business days of completing the assessment.
Flatiron School’s Career Services team provides weekly 1:1 career coaching sessions, mock interviews, and access to an extensive employer network to help students launch fulfilling careers in tech after graduation.
Flatiron School powers the Access Scholarship which invested $1.5 million into the futures of more than 500 students across all of Flatiron School’s campuses and online courses in 2020. The Access Scholarship opens doors for aspiring innovators who may have experienced barriers to education. To build a more diverse and inclusive tech community, Flatiron School has awarded over $10 million in scholarships for women, minorities, veterans, and other underrepresented groups in tech.
Flatiron School was one of the first bootcamps in the industry and a pioneer in providing 3rd party examined job placement reports. Read their full independently-examined jobs reports at: https://flatironschool.com/jobs-reports/
When I decided to attend a bootcamp, I had my heart set on Hack Reactor because I had read over and over that it was the Harvard of bootcamps. The thing about bootcamps like Hack Reactor is they have impressive job outcomes because they're extremely selective; they only accept students who could already get a great job without the program, e.g., PhDs, Ivy Leaguers, exceptional coders. In case you're reading this and can't decide on a school, I hope that steers you in the right direction.

Now on to my wonderful experience at Flatiron. I did the web immersive program and was able to finish in 5 1/2 months. I learned Ruby, Rails, JS, and React, which are extremely relevant today. The course material is very well written. It's not at all dry or tedious like other online classes tend to be. The lectures are very easy to watch and the instructors are very passionate about what they do, which comes across in their videos/chats. The other valuable thing you'll get from Flatiron is a comprehensive guide on how to make yourself marketable to potential employers. That comes in the form of course material and a career coach.
Don't expect the school to do all the work and find you a job. Like anything in life, you have to put the work in. Although, they do have recruiters connecting grads with hiring managers from startups to major companies.
I accepted an offer about three months after I graduated. I'm currently a Software Engineer Apprentice with IBM. The team I work with uses Rails, which has been easy to transition into with what I learned at Flatiron.
