    Everything Coder123 posted is objectively true

    I am also from the same cohort as Coder 123, and everything that was written in the previous post was all true.  I don't know how you could take someone's money, tell people they're going to receive all these promises, and fulfill none of it.  Even after the 3rd week after we talked to him, the director did not fulfill what he promised to give us by the deadline we gave him.  He gave an excuse that he got sick.  One of the things we asked for were curtains. ...

    Don't count on a great entry level job

    I'm a local technical recruiter in Orange County, specializing in placing JavaScript and Open Source Engineers in the area. I have worked with many different candidates out of various bootcamps, but I would by far say candidates coming out of HackDojo have not had the success with interviews as they should expect to have, after investing this much time/money into a program like this. The last course they give implies that after they receive their "black belt" they are able to...

    POORLY RUN BOOTCAMP

    I would give this bootcamp negative stars on everything if this site allowed it.  

    After reading these reviews, I just want to say that it's all TRUE.  I was in the same cohort as these fine people here so I won't repeat most of what they said since our experiences are pretty much the same.  If you want to get a more accurate idea of what goes on at this school, just imagine you're at a meetup all day long (9-5) with a group of people who are mostly new...

    I agree with the other reviewers - you should find another school

    I'm also from the same cohort as the other two reviewers. 

    To say that I was disappointed with this program is an understatement. I tend to look at things from a "whats the worst case scenario? Well, whatever happens has to be better thant THAT" perspective. Unfortunately, this was one of the few times where the reality was actually worse than my worst case scenario.

    Initially it was supposed to be at an office spac...

    Extremely unorganized. No preparation. Several students filed for chargeback on their credit cards.

    Short version: 

    I know at least 5 students filing for chargeback with their credit card companies.  The class was extremely disorganized with a bad teacher who couldn’t prepare a lesson plan before class or make it on time to class and then later on an industry professional teacher who left after not being paid on time by the director. The director knew how unorganizezd the class was and then on the 8th or 9th week in, he finally said we didn&rsqu...
