We have a plan to help you land your dream job — and it works.
In addition to learning technical skills, our Career Service Managers teach the soft skills you need to succeed in any role.
Since our founding in 2012, our mission has been to deliver exceptional student outcomes, helping you land the tech job you want. We do this through a challenging curriculum, top instructors, and a team of experienced Career Service Managers who support you every step of the way.
Over time, the job market for software engineers has evolved, and the data in our latest GRAD report demonstrates that success in securing a job requires sustained focus and effort.
The data clearly indicates that when our graduates work hard and follow our guidance to actively apply for jobs, they succeed.
According to the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics and Lightcast, in the next ten years, the tech workforce will grow twice as fast as the overall U.S. workforce. Trained software engineers are in demand — all it takes is an investment in yourself to meet that demand.
Graduate Outcomes: Active Track vs. Passive Track
We publicly disclose our standards for documenting, auditing, and publishing student outcomes data. In our GRAD report, we break outcomes data into two categories: Active Track vs. Passive Track. This helps us understand what it takes to land a job in software engineering in an evolving market.
- Active Track represents graduates who applied to an average of at least 10 jobs per week during their job search (180 days post-graduation).
- Passive Track represents graduates who applied to fewer than 10 jobs per week, on average, during their job search (180 days post-graduation).
This 180-day period is about persistence, fighting through imposter syndrome, and keeping the momentum from the program going, with us here to help you maximize your job search.
