How am I supposed to find a job while i can't even get into a bootcamp?

İ don't have a cs degree. But i learned a lot by myself and still learning. Few weeks ago i saw a Java backend bootcamp which is teached by the engineers from the biggest e commerce company of my country ( like amazon) There were interview process, they send codility and measure your skills and if you pass they do 1 to 1 interview with zoom. Today i opened my mail app. And saw the bootcamp email which starts with "unfortunately..." They didn't even send me the codility codes. They straight eliminated me. I'm guessing that's because I'm not cs student. My question is how can I find a job while i couldn't get into a simple bootcamp?

Boot camps suck. You need to network IRL to get your entry level job. For education, use free online resources and focus on work that precisely targets the tech stack that local employers use and prepare sample work that is very polished (quality over quantity). And I don't know what you mean by "region", but assuming you're not in the US and trying to get jobs here - that never, ever happens. Network locally, especially for entry-level positions.

Yeah I'm still taking course from udemy. And recently i found algorithms course of MIT. İ didn't use any 'region'. Where did you see that?

I'm not sure what you meant by "student from a different area". If you could be more specific that would be great it's not super clear

Getting operation analyst or automated qa job might be a good way to then transfer to a swe job. Barrier to entry for those are much lower

What about Udacity nanodegree etc? Combine that with extra career coaching you drop several hundred bucks. It's still way cheaper than a bootcamp.

Trendyoldan bahsediyorsun sanırım. Co-founderlar ve 5 yıllık iş tecrübesi olanlar bile elendi, saçma bir seçim yaptılar sıkma canını :)
