Hugo CastaredeGraduate • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • ParisSep 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob AssistanceI loved my experience
I was attracted by the code universe when I started coding on excel. I discovered code can be meticulous but also very creative.
I didn't ask myself 3000 questions about the formation. I called some dev, and one of them attended La Capsule. He told me Javascript was the most used language on the market and that it was the kind of skills I needed for a career change.

I didn't ask myself 3000 questions about the formation. I called some dev, and one of them attended La Capsule. He told me Javascript was the most used language on the market and that it was the kind of skills I needed for a career change.
It came along at just the right time. My life goals had changed, I wanted to leave Paris and work from home. And the dev world has an important remote culture. The job market is flourishing, there are a lot of opportunities, so a career change wasn't too risky.
Once you start the program, you improve quickly. Before the formation, you have to do a short training just to be sure you understand the programmation basics. I was fully committed and did it correctly, and when you did it correctly, you can see it's really useful.
Obviously the teaching method is great, because being able to create an entire app in 10 weeks shows the learning process is successful and concrete.
I feel ready for what's next, I didn't have too many difficulties during the program and I don't see it would change now. I'm feeling good !- CamilleGraduate • Full Stack Web Developer - In Person • ParisSep 08, 2021Overall ExperienceInstructorsCurriculumJob Assistance

Super team
My teammates from my batch and I, we loved working on the MVP and we're still working on it today. We are still in touch with La Capsule's team and they encourage us a lot on our project, by giving us feedback and some tips.
More than just the teaching aspects, I enjoyed the fact we are backed up : they are quick to answer on the phone, to give us the answers we need.

So useful !
It's a successful career change for me ! It really trained me efficiently, I saw it during my internship.
To start with, I give a huge bonus point to the method : it's exactly how we should learn of to program, by doing ! Of course you need some theory, but if you want to be a dev, you need to practice. The MVP at the end allows us to mobilize all the notions we saw during the training, and that's what turn you into a fully operational dev.

Great if you want to be autonomous !
I don't have anything to say, except that I've spent a pretty good time with the team, and if I had to do it again, i'll do it again !
I saw myself improving like my friends, it's impressive the way we become autonomous, and you can see it right from the first week. As long as you remember you have a lot of work and you have to stay focus, everything's gonna be fine !

The fact we receive an official diploma at the end of the formation is huge advantage, and to the recruiters' eyes, this kind of training is really appreciated and valued.

Very operational !
The formation was really useful and I still used what I saw during those weeks today. It gave the keys to become an autonomous dev.
I was seduced during the interview which went pretty well, the team reassured me on the rhythm and the amount of work we would have. Once I started, it's intense but you kind of get caught up in the game and those 10 weeks pass fast !

All I have to say is a big thanks, I've learned a lot during those 10 weeks, even more than I imagined. I had the career change I needed. Now I'm doing something I like, I learn new things everyday, and my colleagues are amazing.

I'm an history teacher, so I was far away from the code. But I realized it wasn't what I wanted. I wished more flexibility and creativity, and I started looking towards new technologies. I thought being a dev was a perfect compromise : you can be freelance and adjust your agenda as you want, or be a dev for a startup or a bigger company, and touched to different fields without having to readjust all your competencies each time.
When I choosed my formation, I focused most of my attention on the program and the teaching method, teacher's old reflex.. I was seduced by the project based learning method, and the program description was complete and it reassured me a lot. When I was in class for the first time, I immediately understood I was gonna be fine.

What I wanted
A great experience that I don't regret, Sebastien is a good teacher and I learned a lot thanks to him.
What I loved the most is the fact not everything is granted : you received all the help you need, but we are encouraged to learn by yourself, to go deeper !

Huge boost
I've got the skills I needed to optimize my app and develop new features on it, and I strongly believe without the formation, I wouldn't have been able to do all of that.
I liked everything : the method that taught us how to be autonomous by working directly on different projects, the lessons that are easy to understand, even for someone who's not from the tech world, and of course my colleagues who cheered me up during those 10 weeks.

I'm still in touch with La Capsule's team, and when my app is fully developped, I will not hesitate to hire La Capsule's alumnis because I know what they are capable of !

Top !
The mix between the different methods is really efficient : we “study” in the morning and we practice in the afternoon on different projects. During those times, we are autonomous but we can ask for the TA’s help, and I do believe it’s the best way to become operational quickly.

In addition, all the tools we have at our disposal are really useful and help us during the learning process : the live codes are great to understand how the code is builded, the TAs are always available, and I’ve found the office hours helpful to review difficult notions.
I was data project manager before La Capsule, but I felt I was missing the technical part behind the data, I had a marketing point of view and I wanted more. I also have a lot of ideas for different entrepreneurial projects, and knowing how to code myself seems to be the best way to fully master your product. I did some research about programming languages, and Javascript seemed to be the most recommended one. Knowing you can code the back end and front end with just one language with JS, I was quickly convinced.
I went for it, and I was pleasantly surprised to see how many different financial help exists to help you. The bootcamp format answered my 2 biggest criterias : it had to be quick and I wanted to learn a lot. I wasn’t disappointed.
I easily found an internship at Accenture as a dev consultant, and thanks to this skills acquisition, I feel ready for what’s next.
