@@hakeemgardner2161 Hi. I’m incredibly late to this but I have some advice. Do whatever you can to gain experience. Volunteer for organizations (especially non-profits in your area), intern, build projects and sell them online, freelance, build a website for a small business or a friend. You have to get creative in order to build real world experience if you are not able to get a job at first. I hope this helps.
My suggestion for newbies: You can audit the courses for free to watch videos first, labs are restricted to paying students. The reason is to make sure you can follow and understand the course content before plunking in your money. The final course on interview is end Jan.
Good video! I am enrolled in the Meta backend Cert. So far the course is really good. While watching the video you are prompted questions and you are quizzed and tested which is excellent. I already did 1 year as a self taught web development and so far taking this course it is well structured and covers a bit of the front end with learning the basics of HTML and CSS. I highly recommend this course. BUT I am a bit cynical on the ability of Meta being able to find you a job especially so with this recession. BUT I think it is an excellent way to learn about Software Development the rest is up to you to find a job. But it is an excellent starting point.
Hey William good feedback and sounds like you're doing great getting started. I agree with your view on the job placement. Meta is such a strong name that they likely have no problem getting partnerships from companies to help sell their course, however I don't know how much of an added advantage those partnerships actually give you. Like most things, its going to come down to your efforts and hardwork to get yourself where you want to go.
@@TheRDGuarantee Thank you. I guess what is getting me by and not giving up like I hear a lot are doing is, focusing on mild goals but at the same time not set a time for when I should land a job. I am thinking of a personal project which I would enjoy making for myself with Python at the moment while I work on learning Bootstrap with the Meta course, thanks once again.
@@DevlogBilldude I’m a college student and I want to use my savings to learn this front end development from meta through coursea for financial purposes and security come January. Please do you have any words or advice for me ?
@@TdainegonkeeU I would recommend figure out what you like first. It doesn't have to be web development. Try different things out and from there once you are decided. Look at your local job market if your end goal is to find a job. Look at the different technologies for what you want to learn and choose the one that you enjoy the most because that is the most sustainable.
@@DevlogBill I did take a front end development course last 2 years but I didn’t finish. I stopped at word press. I traveled and that’s what caused me to leave it.
Hey, I am new to programming I started this certificate 20 days ago and I am now half way through(second week of advanced react), I learned a lot but in the same time I look on you tube for additional recourses and I realized when I was studying that I should work on my algorithm knowledge and logic process so I started practicing in code wars, I really enjoy it more than the course itself. I have to finish as much as I can from the certificate before 15 august, (my forecast: maybe course 8), and than i need to put some time to learn time and space complexity and api's , btw you forgot to mention that this certificate also teach version control (I appreciate this course more and more as I am progressing through the certificate ) and here come my question: should I do a bootcamp?
@@MaruSurfs i am using javascript in codewars, i don't want to learn a new language now since i didn't master javascript, and react as well i need alot of practice on hooks. right now i am not that much coding because i am learning 1 course about ux ui design, super cool course and i am really enjoying it but when i finish (70%) i will focus more on building small applications just to know when to use what.
I am a future UX UI designer with an ongoing degree. Do you think this course will help someone in the UX field? Im thinking I should pursue this certificate because then Id understand UI and its working deeper
I want to join in this course. Can I join bcz I am very much interested to learn frontend. I am working professional with 1.5 year of experience. So I would like to switch my carrier into frontend. So any suggestions for me and can I join this course. And are they teach update version technology.?
Hey Vamsimullangi, I'm not sure what you're currently working in, but even if its not something related to front-end, this course is designed to get you from "0 knowledge" to an intermediate understanding of front end. While the course may not be updated to this very month, the tools they use to teach are very current. For the price and learning experience, this course is a strong value. If you're starting from zero, I think this would be a good place to start and try to finish in 3-4 months to see how you really like being in Front-End. If you want to try the course with a 7 day free trial, you can here: rdguarantee.link/Coursera/Meta-Front-End Good luck!
@@mjanish9836 yes, it was something really high up there in terms of knowledge but yeah by the end of it, you can make sites even using react. If you want a certificate, then you can go for it but if you only want to learn, then just learn on UA-cam.
I have a question if anyone could answer would be amazing... I'm a digital designer working for a year now on UI/UX projects using Figma and I already have some knowledge on HTML and CSS. That being said, which path would be better for me to switch into a Frontend career: applying for this Meta certificate or focus more specifically on a Javascript React course? Thanks
Because of Meta's brand, they're able to make connections at a lot of companies. When they ask for partnerships, people will listen. However, these companies are not hiring exclusively from the Meta pool of Coursera candidates. I think its just another place that targeted positions or companies CAN tap into.
I have completed my Google UX Design Professional certificate course recently, without prior coding knowledge can I take this Meta Front-End development course?
Yup! It’s not that bad! I’m halfway through the JavaScript course. I might be able to progress faster if I didn’t take a lot of notes, but taking those notes helps slow me down and has gotten me to really understand what I’m learning before I just jump to the next video.
@@Aadityax1 my design peers from my university got ux design jobs after taking the course. We even had design guest that said google ux will get you a great foundation
Could you help by explaining, How this course works ? - Should I get the 3 months or 7 months or 1 month ? It's online pre-recorded video tutorials right ? doable in 1 month?
I wouldn't try to do this course in one month. I'm not sure if its even possible to complete in one month. You should expect to take about 16 weeks, or four months to complete this working part time (10hrs per week).
@@TheRDGuarantee Thankyou, can you please also tell if the Meta course for Front end is better or from other Known Universities like the California institute of Arts or the University of Minnesota.
@@TheRDGuarantee Agreed. I study this from 7am to either 9 or 10am. There's quite a bit of content in there, I will admit. I'm finishing this course now, I am finishing the interview aspect now.
Is the certification which is provided after successfully completing the course all I would need to jump into the career? Or is college courses required also?
I think you could jump into the field with some credibility without college courses. Depends on how willing you are to invest yourself fully into the craft as well outside the course.
I am on unemployment and using this opportunity to switch careers. In NY, the DOL gave me a free Coursera account... So if you are currently unemployed, speak to your DOL rep.
I am doing META BACKEND PROFESSIONAL CERTIFICATE, what salary I can expect after completing this course successfully as a fresher? please guide me as I want to know is this course really going to provide me a pakage, you can also tell me the minimum CTC I can get from this course,
Good luck on the course! This is a wide ranging question. It depends on if you live in the US and where in the US you live. Also, is the Meta Backend Certificate going to be your only experience, or do you have other projects that you've worked on. The entry-level backend developer salary is in the $94,000 - $98,000 range, but if you're coming in with less qualifications you could be getting offers in the $80,000's.

Completed the course in less than 2 Weeks. Information is very basic here.
can i get this course for free???
You can get financial aid, and finish it faster than the suggested time. Financial aid is 50% off.
Are you a military veteran???
I am on unemployment and using this opportunity to switch careers. In NY, the DOL gave me a free Coursera account... So if you are currently unemployed, speak to your DOL rep.
My financial aid is completely free, depends on your location too
I believe for their front end and mobile app certs. Those don't require a degree!
do you get certificate just after finishing the course or you have to give a exam or a project
The course completion relies on passing peer reviewed projects, quizzes, and tests. Not just a read and pass sort of course.
