TripleTen Instagram Takeover - A day in the life of a Software Engineering Student
Just a small glimpse into what one of my days could look like as I am halfway into the Software Engineering course with TripleTen. Each day can be very different but this particular day was pretty busy that I didn't even get to include some other parts of the day. I had also taken my son to the doctors for a checkup which I did not include here!
I try to plan each week out and allocate blocks of time dedicated to studying however it can be tricky when things can come up last minute. It is why I like the flexibility and self-paced learning that the TripleTen course offers so that I can fit it into my schedule, when I can!
Also, if you are in South Orange County in California check out our restaurant: Pho Tam Cali :-

Review of TripleTen's Software Engineering Bootcamp - My story and experience so far

After a 9 year stint as a web developer and manager in New Zealand and Australia I went on an 8 year hiatus and moved to California. Now I am a mum of three boys and opened a restaurant in South Orange County, CA and decided to get back into the tech world. Taking the TripleTen Software Engineering bootcamp was the first step I took to transition back into tech. I'd like to share a bit about ho...

    I have a question. I have no experience like your background. And I'm what wondering how much experience do you need or what type of schooling do you prior need before doing this coding class? Because like I said, I have none. Is it good enough for someone who has no idea about coding or data

      Hi thanks for your question! TripleTen's Software Engineering course is great for anyone who has little to no experience, a lot of students have completely switched careers from a non-technical background and have no prior knowledge when they sign up. I would just encourage you to have a lot of self motivation and determination and believe that you can do this program. Some students surprise themselves and find out that they love coding so be confident in yourself because you are more capable than you may think!

TripleTen just held an event in LA and there were five alumni who spoke about finding jobs after the course. I am not sure how you can get in touch with more graduates but I can find out. Working as a tutor would be quite valuable experience for graduates in the interim if they are wanting experience to add to their portfolio.

    ive read that tripleten isn't worth it and most likely a scam with predatory tactics. People have a hard time finding a job and get into debt. What would be your thoughts on this since ive been looking into tripleten myself.

    • @KrystleTa
      @KrystleTa 2 місяці тому

      Hi! Thanks for your comment! Regarding TripleTen most likely a scam, I firmly do not believe they try to trick anyone into signing up with them most especially in a dishonest or illegal way. Without knowing the backstory or personal experience of those who are saying it's not worth it, my thoughts are that people will find it hard to get a job and will be in debt regardless of whether you complete a bootcamp or a university degree. Completing a bootcamp or a degree won't automatically land you a job. There is a lot more work you have to put into it. In addition to this, I think that you have to decide whether the bootcamp meets your goals and is aligned with what you want to achieve out of completing the course. Does it cover the technologies you want to learn? There are a lot of bootcamps out there - I don't think there is a one size fits all. There is certainly the option to learn from many other resources and free courses as well however, some like the bootcamp style way of learning as you have to complete projects within a certain timeframe which helps you stay accountable. If you are disciplined enough to follow your own schedule and that works for you that is great! TripleTen's bootcamp in particular also includes a career segment that goes over things like job interview preparation, how to format your LinkedIn profile and suggest ways in how to make you stand out as a potential candidate. Externships are offered with TripleTen so you can work on a project for a real company which will become a project you can put down on your CV or resume as experience. Ultimately, everyone is going to have a different experience and as mentioned it is up to you to decide whether it will meet your goals and needs. If it does, then it is also up to you to make the most of it. The bootcamp provides you with all the necessary tools you need to get the most out of it. I hope that helps!

    • @KrystleTa
      @KrystleTa 4 місяці тому

      Thanks for the question, it is something that I think about also. The first thing I'd advise is to not let any of that affect your goals or throw you off because everyone at any point in time I feel will have a different experience. If this is something you want to do, you CAN do it. If your end goal is to find a job, you WILL find a job. A few things you could do is to research what companies you may be interested in working for and try to find someone you can speak to (try LinkedIn or Glassdoor) and get some insight into what they may be looking for in terms of skillset or potential job positions. You may need to tailor your learning journey to take extra courses (there are many free courses too) to add to your skillset. TripleTen offers a segment dedicated to brushing up your LinkedIn profile and getting you ready to put yourself out there and start job hunting. Externships are also available as part of the bootcamp, so you will do a mini project for a real company which will also help for your portfolio. I think the main thing is to not be worried as ultimately your determination will get you to where you want to be. Tech has so many paths and it'll be a matter of finding the right one for you. Hope that helps!
