A big help in transitioning careers
I had already been taking some self guided studies in the software engineering domain for a few months prior to applying for GA but decided paying to do their program would be the quickest pathway to obtaining my first job in the field. Given the knowledge I had already obtained prior to the bootcamp commencing, I was initially a little frustrated with the basic content in the first two weeks but when I flagged this with my instructor he was more than happy to give me additional reading ...I had already been taking some self guided studies in the software engineering domain for a few months prior to applying for GA but decided paying to do their program would be the quickest pathway to obtaining my first job in the field. Given the knowledge I had already obtained prior to the bootcamp commencing, I was initially a little frustrated with the basic content in the first two weeks but when I flagged this with my instructor he was more than happy to give me additional reading and content to study while the class covered the first unit. It was all up hill from here though and the next 10 weeks I found myself allocating easily 60 hours a week to study (including class time/homework and my own additional exploration). Some days I felt dizzy from the amount of info I was trying to retain but building the project at the end of each unit was very fun and rewarding. My teacher (dt) was incredible and excelled at helping students get the most out of such a short term program. The careers team were also very helpful in providing a framework and support to help you get that first job. It took me a further 3 months of hustling every day and nearly 180 job applications to land my first job but here I am writing this 12 months from starting the course, in a permanent job as a fully remote software developer and I couldn't be happier.

Hollistic data science crash course
The bootcamp is everything you need to get yourself up to speed in terms of data science competency.
Being a bootcamp, there are some assumptions that you need to know upfront:- It will be FAST paced! It is a bootcamp after all. It will feel like cramming a few uni semesters into one.
- You need to have some competency in Python and A level/uni maths.
- Commit the ENTIRE 3 months to this course. Pretty much doesn’t leave much time for anything else.

- Commit the ENTIRE 3 months to this course. Pretty much doesn’t leave much time for anything else.
Having said that, the course materials are very comprehensive and instructors very supportive.
Career coach is also very helpful, though of course only as helpful as the effort that you put in yourself.
There’s just a few areas that the course is lacking, which is understandable due to its short duration:- More comprehensive SQL. The bootcamp only touhes it superficially, though the industry seems to emphasise on this.
- Data visualisation softwares. Qlik/Tableau/Power BI is not covered at all, but will be a huge bonus if you have some competency.
Overall, HIGHLY RECOMMENDED if you’re looking to do a career switch or to gain data science competency.

Over the duration of the course, we delved deep into the core pillars of web development, covering HTML, CSS, JavaScript, Boolean logic, and the invaluable skill of utilizing GitHub and specialised software. Each topic presented its own challenges, but the journey was enriched by the dedicated guidance of our course instructors. The course structure demanded diligence and perseverance, but the allure of creating something tangible, something that resonates with the digital world, kept me filled with enthusiasm. Despite the steep learning curve, the journey remained consistently intriguing, with each lesson offering new insights and opportunities for growth. One of the standout aspects of the course was the unwavering support and motivation provided by the teachers. Their passion for the subject matter was infectious, igniting a fire within each student to push beyond their limits and strive for excellence. Their encouragement played a pivotal role in navigating through the complexities of web development and emerging victorious on the other side. As the course drew to a close, the culmination of our efforts manifested in the creation of our own websites. This hands-on experience not only solidified our understanding of the concepts but also instilled a sense of accomplishment that cannot be overstated. Witnessing the transformation from novice to proficient developer was a testament to the effectiveness of the course curriculum and the dedication of our mentors. In retrospect, while the journey was undeniably challenging, it was also profoundly fulfilling. The skills acquired throughout the course not only equipped me with the technical know-how required for a career in web development but also provided invaluable insights into the potential future that lies ahead in this dynamic field. For anyone considering a career in web development, this course is not just an educational opportunity but a gateway to understanding the boundless possibilities that await in the world of technology.- Abdullahi AliGraduate • Los AngelesVerified by LinkedInJan 15, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
My Disheartening Journey with General Assembly's Bootcamp and Job Guarantees
I attended General Assembly's bootcamp, and while my instructor was knowledgeable and supportive, I experienced disappointment with their job placement promises. Initially, I was led to believe that landing a job post-graduation would be more immediate. However, the reality was different. They often cited minor reasons, like not responding to one of their messages, to avoid accountability for job placement.

Initially, I was led to believe that landing a job post-graduation would be more immediate. However, the reality was different. They often cited minor reasons, like not responding to one of their messages, to avoid accountability for job placement. Despite being punctual and diligently completing all requirements for over a year, I found their commitment to securing employment opportunities somewhat lacking. It's crucial for prospective students to approach their expectations with a realistic perspective on post-graduation outcomes.I wouldn't have enrolled in the course at General Assembly if they hadn't assured me of a job guarantee. The promise of post-graduation employment heavily influenced my decision to purchase the course. However, the disparity between their assurances and the actual job placement process left me feeling misled and dissatisfied with the overall experience. Clear communication and realistic expectations are essential when making decisions about educational investments, and unfortunately, the initial commitment to guaranteeing a job did not align with the outcome. - Kirti SharmaTechnology Consultant • Graduate • Product Management (Short Course) • LondonVerified by LinkedInDec 22, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

As an Overall Review of GA's UXDI Immersive --
For GA's UXDI Immersive, you're thrown headfirst into a crazy 40+ hour/week commitment with barely any time to take a breath of fresh air. Now, this seems daunting (and it absolutely is), but if you go into this program with the mindset that you want to succeed, that you want to get as much out of this program as you possibly can before those brief 12 weeks are up, then you'll be fine -- I can guarantee it.

For GA's UXDI Immersive, you're thrown headfirst into a crazy 40+ hour/week commitment with barely any time to take a breath of fresh air. Now, this seems daunting (and it absolutely is), but if you go into this program with the mindset that you want to succeed, that you want to get as much out of this program as you possibly can before those brief 12 weeks are up, then you'll be fine -- I can guarantee it. I cannot emphasize enough how important it is that you will only get as much out of this boot camp as you're willing to put in. You will not be hand-held the entire time, you will be expected to execute design projects in incredibly short amounts of time (but they don't have to be perfect (!!) just backed with good research). While it is okay that you aren't able to get to some of the additional reading material, know that your willingness to absorb and apply everything you learn will make you a better UX'er. You must (as cheesy as it sounds) become one with the course material and the applications.
Something that could be improved --
There are a handful of things that I think this course, or at least my experience with the course, could have been improved upon. One prominent one is pacing. The first 4 weeks of the course are a whirlwind of information. It's like getting thrown into the ocean with just a panel of wood to keep you afloat. Towards the latter half of the course, while I appreciated the vast amounts of "Workshop Time", I would have liked it even more to have other lessons sprinkled throughout the rest of the course to further enhance my UX/UI skills, or just to learn more about how UX fits into different industries.
Other Key Takeaways --
It is no secret (if you've done your research) that GA is one of the most expensive boot camps out there. This is why I mentioned that you have to be ready to really (no pun intended) immerse yourself into the program and be like a super sponge to really get your value's worth.
I was fortunate to have a wonderful career coach, Amber. She wasn't just a coach, she was also a mentor to me as I searched for jobs and eventually completed a design challenge. I am so grateful for her help and guidance, but I also know that no two people's experiences are the same. - Joseph GilbertoStudentVerified by LinkedInOct 02, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
