I completed the bootcamp in May of 2018. After graduation, I worked for Trilogy as a Teaching Assistant as well as a Video Curriculum Engineer on their Enterprise Curriculum Team, and I recently got offered a position as a UX Developer with Fidelity.

I completed the bootcamp in May of 2018. After graduation, I worked for Trilogy as a Teaching Assistant as well as a Video Curriculum Engineer on their Enterprise Curriculum Team, and I recently got offered a position as a UX Developer with Fidelity.
Overall Experience:
I had a good overall experience in terms of the sheer amount of material that I learned throughout the course as well as in securing a job in the field afterwards. A++ to my Instructors, Student Success Manager, and the new Career Services Director.
Incoming Knowledge:
I came in with almost no experience, but this course made it easy to succeed with the right amount of effort outside of class (which absolutely varies from student to student). I did work during the bootcamp as well, which was difficult but manageable.
Course Advice:
Even though this is a part-time course with only ten hours a week of in-class time, what you put in outside of class is essential for success. From experience in my own cohort and from being a TA, it is pretty consistent that the people who put in the most work outside of class are the most successful (including students who work hard being more successful than students with prior knowledge). The course sets you up very nicely to learn how to learn, but there is so much information out there that you need to be prepared to take the class activities and use them as a jumping off point for deeper learning. Additionally, you can do just enough learning to get through the homework, but spending the extra time while you're in the cohort and have the instructors as resources is pretty invaluable in terms of growing your coding skillset for life after the bootcamp.
Final piece of advice: do not get behind. Keep up with the classwork and homework, because the courseload grows expoentially as you dive into more difficult subjects, add projects, and start job hunting. With that in mind, if you are ever struggling, there is one other huge perk to the bootcamp, which is access to free(!) tutors who can work with you outside of class.
Career Services:
I would have given career services no stars because they were completely unhelpful during my cohort. However, the new director who has taken over is terrific! She made the effort to follow up with former graduates like myself, had incredibly useful advice for job hunting, and is as hands-on or hands-off as you prefer in terms of scheduling followups and coachings.
Post Graduation:
I got funneled into working for Trilogy almost right away, which was a great way to get my foot in the door in the development world. You will come out of the bootcamp with a lot of knowledge and skills, but very little experience on your resume. However, If you are persisitent about keeping up with your learning (show that on github!), actively working on side projects (again with the github), practicing talking about what you know (maybe buy a whiteboard...), and being proactive about your job search (make a spreadhseet), you will definitely be set up to find a good job!
TLDR:
This course is definitely worth it! You get what you put in.
