Rithm School offers a full-stack web development course that is full-time, remote and lasts 4 months. While Rithm School is based in San Francisco, our classes are currently held remotely.
The Rithm School curriculum is centered around JavaScript and Python, and also covers in-demand topics like React, TypeScript, Node, Flask, Express, computer science fundamentals, and more. Students get hands-on support and receive a high-touch education and real world project experience they need to become successful software engineers. Rithm School was founded to fill a gap in the bootcamp industry: classes are capped at just 20 students, so students get one-on-one learning with instructors who are experienced software engineers and educators.
The admissions process consists of an online application, an informational call with the admissions team, a technical assessment, and a combined behavioral and technical interview. Rithm School provides free resources and events to help learners become interview-ready, as well as interactive support and feedback through their Slack channel.
The final weeks of Rithm School consist of a real-world project in a live codebase, as well as preparation for technical and behavioral job interviews. Students also receive one-on-one mentorship from a career coach who will help prepare them for each stage of the job search. This support lasts for the rest of their career.
I had a fantastic time at Rithm School. I was in the 3rd cohort in a class of 11 students. We had so much individualized attention that I was never waiting on a question for more than a few minutes, and the other students were very helpful, kind, and down-to-earth. It was not a cut-throat environment because we were not competing against one another; there were so few of us and there are so many engineering job openings that we knew that the most important thing was helping one another suc...
I had a fantastic time at Rithm School. I was in the 3rd cohort in a class of 11 students. We had so much individualized attention that I was never waiting on a question for more than a few minutes, and the other students were very helpful, kind, and down-to-earth. It was not a cut-throat environment because we were not competing against one another; there were so few of us and there are so many engineering job openings that we knew that the most important thing was helping one another succeed and trying our best. We got experience pair programming, working on real features with startups in an agile sprint format, and building our own independent projects. The environment was fun (we all wore horse masks as the end as a prank to the instructors) but still intense (we moved very quickly and had to work hard every day to keep up).
A bit about my background: I had a Computer Science degree that I completed in 2015 and 2 years of work experience at startups working in Business Development / Operations / Community Management. My software skills were rusty and my web development knowledge was out of date and shaky. I came in wanting to get the preparation I needed to work as an engineer at a modern startup, and I wanted to develop confidence in my skills. Rithm was amazing for both of those -- we learned all the common tools and practiced interview questions so that we would feel prepared when going out on our own.
Job search afterward: I joined when Rithm had a partnership with Outco, and I did the Outco 1-month program in August 2017 right after Rithm ended. The partnership was very helpful because I got to work with some of my classmates and go through the process together, though now that job prep is in-house it will be even more of a tight-knit feeling. Whiteboarding every day was very helpful because that aspect of interviews became less intimidating. I had a bit of a weird path because I was strongly considering PM roles and applied to many of those, but ultimately when I wasn't having luck, I started working for my friend's startup in Community Management while searching for Engineering jobs. I knew I wanted to focus on Frontend so I could utilize my UX Design knowledge, and I lucked out in finding a UX Engineer role that combined Frontend Engineering, UX Design, and Product Management. Rithm was so helpful throughout the whole thing - I met with Elie every few weeks whenever I needed help and he was always available. It was so great to have the support of my cohort members, too, because friends going through the search alone shared how isolated they felt. I'm now 4 months into my role and really love it!! I know Rithm prepared me very well and I recommend it as often as I can to anyone considering a bootcamp!
