Hack Reactor by Galvanize is an educator for rapid career transformation, offering software engineering bootcamps designed so that anyone with motivation can succeed, regardless of education, experience, or background. Hack Reactor by Galvanize bootcamps are challenging and designed to fit a student’s schedule and skill level. Bootcamps include a 19-Week Software Engineering Immersive with JavaScript and Python, designed for beginners, as well as a 12-Week Software Engineering Immersive.
Applicants to the 12-week Software Engineering Immersive need to pass a Technical Admissions Assessment (TAA), which tests for intermediate coding competency. There is a free, self-paced bootcamp prep course that can be accessed to learn the fundamentals of JavaScript. Those applying for the 19-week program do not need to pass the TAA or take any prep courses. Applicants to all programs need to pass an aptitude test, a brief typing test, and an admissions interview.
In addition to its software engineering programs, Hack Reactor provides a large network of professional peers, 1:1 coaching, mock interviews, job training, and more. All students graduate as autonomous, full-stack software engineers, fully capable of tackling unique problems and building complex applications on the job. Hack Reactor alumni join a diverse, engaged network of fellow students, instructors, staff, and alumni, including 14,000+ graduates at 2,500 companies.
As a former public school teacher I was skeptical of the overall Bootcamp Experience. The fees seemed exorbitant, and the promises of employment appeared out of line with my own perceptions of the job market.

As a former public school teacher I was skeptical of the overall Bootcamp Experience. The fees seemed exorbitant, and the promises of employment appeared out of line with my own perceptions of the job market. After reading reviews and shopping around town I realized that Hack Reactor wasn’t offering what most bootcamps were, they were providing an environment that allows people to push themselves to learn more than they thought possible. Even the entrance process was far more rigorous than what most bootcamps covered in the first part of their programs. After taking the tour and talking to some alumni I decided that I would take the plunge, and I am truly thankful that I was able to be apart of this transformative program.
From the first day it was evident that the entire staff valued my experience. The rigors of the curriculum proved to be an immense challenge, but one that I was never alone in. All of the staff is incredibly supportive, and I was surrounded by the most inspirational group of peers I have ever met.
The curriculum is constantly evolving, and Hack Reactor provides the most up to date skills employers are looking for. Most importantly though, they allow you to explore and experience the autonomy that will be needed day to day on the job. During the first week, there was a lecture on the importance of the adopting the “Growth Mindset,” and I can’t think of a more appropriate analogy for the overall experience of attending Hack Reactor. If you show up every day with an open mind, work really hard, and push past minor setbacks along the way, you will come out the other end employable as a software engineer.
A year ago I decided to pursue a career software because I was looking for a challenging, yet rewarding skillset, a good work/life balance, and a comfortable salary. Hack Reactor has provided me with all of the tools I needed to make that happen, and I can’t recommend them enough!
