Helped me get back in the market after a 2 year gap on my resume
When I think back to my first interview after joining Scaler, which was focused on low level design…I can still feel the rush of excitement I had as I effortlessly answered each question thrown my way and eventually made it into the final round. If you're on the lookout for a platform to level up or just refresh your concepts again after a break, feel free to give it a shot.

Go for it
Was doing great in job but stress made me leave... I was very anxious. Health suffered, so I took break to focus on myself but my friend suggested me Scaler, which turned out very amazing. Focused on DSA and algorithms, especially DLD and it helped me in regained confidence and improved my skills...! Thanks to Anshuman and Abhimanyu for advice and always giving motivation. Ready to restart career with more confidence now then ever... - Rohit MehraStudent • Scaler Academy • OnlineJun 28, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceN/A
So far so good
Very user friendly interface…helped me maintain my coding streak for over 60 days straight (and on going). Learning has been a pretty smooth process so far, with a few issues here and there with instructor replacement and some class cancellations… but overall, I am five months into the course and its worth the investment so far. - Sanjana PatelGraduate • Scaler Academy • OnlineJun 21, 2024Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Helpful for non tech to tech transitions, covers all the basics
Transitioning to a new job can be hard, and even more difficult when the field is new and you’re from a non IT background… but Scaler gave me the much needed push for taking that leap… The platform gave my days a structure and discipline that helped me remain consistent onwards my goal. Big thanks to my mentor for his support without whose help and motivation I would have dropped out of the course probably in the first two months.
