Has anyone been to one of the coding boot camps and been hired into a faang company? If so, what level? My friends daughter is looking for a career change and just started a boot camp. My background is comp sic and they seem like a fine starting point but they don’t appear to be very good at anything but web front ends. TC: 224 @amazon
Yes. But I went to a shitty company for 3 years first.
This is the way to go
Sic* indeed, yeah who needs theory for web front end? But this can usually foster an interest for deeper knowledge, but that will take years if not a decade to collect without getting a real degree from a good university ...
Not faang but my friend landed a job at splunk out of his bootcamp for 170k TC which is really good
Which bootcamp?
Out of curiosity, what was your friends previous educational and industry experience background?

Is meta really worth the wait?
Yes, if Airbnb counts. I worked at startups before, though. I did my bootcamp more than a couple years ago, and I think job prospects for students are worse now.
Which bootcamp? Do you recommend it?
