Great Class but NO help getting a job
This course had great instructors but they advertise that they have this great help to get you placed in a job. After graduating my hiring help went over my resume and gave me very simple recommendations. She missed or was late to many of our meetings and didn't seem to remember what we were talking about from past meetings. I don't expect her to memorize all her clients but some notes being taken down would have been nice.

After graduating my hiring help went over my resume and gave me very simple recommendations. She missed or was late to many of our meetings and didn't seem to remember what we were talking about from past meetings. I don't expect her to memorize all her clients but some notes being taken down would have been nice. They advertised they had many companies that hire through fullStake as they know they put out good people. I've yet to see ANY company referenced as hiring or recommended from them.
As for the course itself you learn REACT, SQL, and Javascript as the main things you code in. Which you can build an app from front to back with that but most places I've seen hiring want you to know some object coding like C++ or JAVA which they don't introduce you to at all. As such all companies I've applied to don't think I have the qualifications for them. To my knowledge my whole cohort is having an extremely hard time finding at job. - AnonymousGraduate • Fullstack Academy Cybersecurity Analytics Bootcamp (Full-Time) • OnlineJan 25, 2023Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

False Advertising
Fullstack Academy lied to my entire cohort. Everything throughout the 3 month bootcamp for Cybersecurity was fine until graduation came and the job hunt started. Terrible. Horrible. I am so glad I didn't have to pay due to being a veteran and I was covered through VETTEC. 6 month job guarantee? Yeah, right. I have been on the hunt since before I graduated and I have come up with nothing.

I have been on the hunt since before I graduated and I have come up with nothing. My recruiter, Kim Woods, gives the standard "just keep going!" and "here's a group zoom chat with an employer". None of those jobs have materialized. Also, only 33% of students from my cohort have secured employment! 33%! I did finally get a yes from a job after 7 months, and that job is Instacart. Not to be a driver, but to be an in store shopper.

The instructors at Fullstack Academy prepare by giving you ample time to develop the skills you will need in the field. There will be a lot of times where you will be Googling things and that is fine. That's exactly what you will be doing most of the time. Curiosity as a major requirement in this field. Answers won't be handed down to you. Take advantage of mentoring & 1:1 session, build patience and resilience. Have fun with the material and be prepared to take it step by step. - AnonymousGraduate • Los AngelesDec 01, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Gained experience which I desired to skill
The course was so well designed to take me through the basic to advance level.
More practical hands on experience is added benefit.
Response to solve any queries or issues is very quick.
Sometimes the trainer faces internet issue but that is just for 10mins that is manageable but apart from that is super amazing. Knowledgehut has the right content and trainers to get the best out of me. - AnonymousGraduate • New York CityNov 03, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance
Challenging but Rewarding
During my time at FullStack Academy, the course seemed very daunting and difficult to overcome. The course is very fast-paced and during the full time class, it will most definitely take up your full time. While going through this course, the instructors would give either part of or the whole lesson depending on what they are teaching that day. Then the instructors would send you off into different zoom rooms (called it breakout rooms) to complete challenges and other schoolwork they had...During my time at FullStack Academy, the course seemed very daunting and difficult to overcome. The course is very fast-paced and during the full time class, it will most definitely take up your full time. While going through this course, the instructors would give either part of or the whole lesson depending on what they are teaching that day. Then the instructors would send you off into different zoom rooms (called it breakout rooms) to complete challenges and other schoolwork they had assigned. The problems we were given were pretty difficult and sometimes hard to understand. But there is so many tools in place to help you find the answers you need. Instructors, mentors, even other classmates would pop around the rooms helping out the team so we all could get the work done. The rewarding part was when you were able to solve the problems without any help and be able to help everyone else in the room find the solution. Like I said, this course seems difficult and hard but it really is the best feeling when things start to click and you are able to solve all the problems given - AnonymousFullstack Web Developer • Graduate • OnlineOct 18, 2022Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Great Teaching
The good: Fullstack Academy offers an immersive cybersecurity bootcamp that is well worth the time spent doing it. The instructors are patient and will walk you through the most basic of tasks, all the way up to configuring VPCs in AWS with load balancing and Remote-Access VPNs. If you have any technical abilities at all, the course should not be difficult to complete.

If you have any technical abilities at all, the course should not be difficult to complete.
Heed this warning: Adjust your expectations as you consider signing up for this bootcamp. If you're expecting to land a job during/immediately after the course, you most likely will not. The majority of my network from the cohort that I finished 3 months ago still don't have jobs in the field. If you're an IT guy looking to expand into IT security, this would be great for you. If you're a Linux/Windows SysAdmin, highschool senior, etc. with time on your hands and don't need to get a job immediately after the course is over, this would be great for you. If you have bills to pay and mouths to feed, you're less than marketable without prior in-field experience.
Conclusion: The instructors are great, and as a noob, you'll learn a ton. Just don't expect to work in-field anytime soon.
