I’ve been looking to make the switch from pursing a career/grad school in Physical Therapy but have always been hesitant to sign up for a boot camp. This one is definitely one of the best I’ve seen thus far and I’ll look more into it. Seems like a solid price for what you’re getting too.

Great work really was looking for something that I can get mentorship with and this sounds like a good deal to me!

Hi Alex, I would love to see how your review of World Quant University Applied Data Science Lab.

Hey Alex, I’m a recent grad at the University of Michigan. I’m equipped with a bachelors in economics and minor in entrepreneurship, as well as elementary programming concepts covered in some of my first-year courses and more advanced statistics and econometrics courses. I want to land a job in data analytics but have found myself scrolling thru jobs that require a couple of years of industry experience, which has brought my career to a halt. Any advice?

Thank you for the review. I'm doing the free course right now and searched for reviews to make sure I wasn't getting into something that was useless. The only other time I had looked into a bootcamp I was disheartened at the price. I am thankful the introductory course is available foran easy price because it will take more than the free part for me to decide to shell out several thousand dollars for this. I am dipping my toe into finding another career and data analytics keeps coming up. Unfortunately, based on a brief search locally, I don't think I will be able to replace my current income but I figure pursuing the skills will still be fruitful. I was wondering how much prior knowledge of SQL, python, or other languages might I need?

How would you compare it with General Assembly Data Science Immersive?

does this bootcamp offer access to the programs? like do I need to have tableu or excel?

Hi Alex, I am currently an international students in Syd Aus. I wanna ask whether this bootcamp can have job guarantee as DA in Australia if i dont have citizenship yet.

Hi Alex, I watched this and it really helped, but then I found Springboard data analytics bootcamp and it is pretty comparable to CF, except it also includes Power BI though seems less focused on Python. It's more expensive and is shorter. Do you have any thoughts about specifically these two bootcamps?

Do you suggest this Bootcamp to someone his English level is intermediate? My idea is to improve confidence and speaking

I don't know what to say about the job guarantee... It says on their site that if you are offered work that is at least 15 hours a week, that it qualifies as a job offer. Essentially part time with little hours. I feel like people that take those kind of offers just won't be valued as much by their companies. Also, since it's 15 hours does that also include freelance and contractor work. Data analytics is such a broad term that I wonder if the guarantee actually covers real data analysis positions.

@AlexTheAnalyst

@@AlexTheAnalyst I'll definitely ask. I know the student chooses to apply to the jobs they want, I just find it odd that they included "15 hours a week jobs."

I dunno, it's possible that they require one to apply to part time or contract work.
