Reviewing IT Career Switch is not easy because the course is a huge sprawling thing of many parts. First thing's first though - I completed my course and they found me a job! So we all did what we set out to do, and special thanks to Jasmine for her help and positivity in the recruitment stage. As for the course - it is hard! Really hard. I had already studied HTML, CSS and JavaScript for some time before starting so thought that I might be done in a few months. No way - it took me the whole year to do it, studying close to full time. The bulk of what you study is the Full Stack Developer course on CodeCademy so check that out to get an idea of what you will cover. It's an incredibly long course and takes a huge amount of effort and patience to get through. It can be very tough to stay motivated at times - it's just you, your brain, and the computer. No one will make you do the work - you have to motivate yourself. My motivation was the deadline, which fuelled my anxiety which forced me to work. I learned a ton though - for me being a student web developer always had me feeling like everything was a mystery. By the end of this course I had a decent, solid foundation and felt ready for the world of work. I suppose if anyone is thinking about this course, all I can say is that you have to really want it. Lots of people drop out. It's not impossible but it was the hardest thing I've ever done.And the final takeaway, for me it was totally worth it! I actually have my dream job now! Jasmine at IT Career Switch got me the interview and I couldn't be happier where I am as a Junior Developer.
