Our Job Is to Get You Hired—It’s Our Favorite Thing to Do!

Thanks to the Job Search program, I got my first job in tech!

This is a high-level Job Search Curriculum.
Skillcrush is a lifelong community, *plus* you get the wisdom of a career coach to accelerate the job hunt. I don’t know of another coding school at this price, offering this level of support, confidence building, and break-the-glass-ceiling-insider-advice. Learning the correct way to prospect for jobs was an invaluable addition to my professional career.

Job searching is hard, but doing it alone is even harder.
Now I finally feel happy on Mondays going to work. Without Skillcrush, without having that support, I don’t know if I would have made it as fast, or if I would’ve made it at all because it’s not easy to find a job, let alone in a pandemic or with a company in another country. It was overall an incredible experience. I would definitely recommend it to anyone.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes, you really will be able to land a job!

Not only will you learn THE job searching skills you need to know in your classes, you’ll also meet regularly with your Career Coaches for individual guidance. Plus, you’ll get tons of peer support from your group career Q&As with your cohort, where you’ll learn from one another and cheer each other on. You’ll never feel alone in your job search, and you’ll be ready to confidently go after—and land—your new job in tech.

You’ll be ready to start the Get Hired portion of the program once you complete your Career Track classes and have your portfolio approved by one of your Skillcrush mentors.

You won’t have access to the Get Hired portion until you complete all of your career track classes and portfolio. We want to make sure you’re 100% prepared to start your job search, and focusing on learning tech skills and completing your portfolio come first. The Get Hired program will be there once you’re ready!

The Get Hired part of the Break Into Tech program is designed to help you land a job faster than you thought possible. You work through this phase with your career coach over the course of 12 weeks, but we often see students starting to land jobs in as little as 4-6 weeks.

All that said, we also see students starting to earn money in as little as 1-3 months with their new skills. You don’t need to wait until you finish your courses before you can start taking on freelance projects and building up your experience. These types of projects include coding up an email template or a static webpage or designing a logo. We love encouraging our students to earn while you learn!

If you’re still working through your Career Track of classes, you’ll want to continue to focus on that first. Most students take 4-5 months to complete their Career Track, working 1-2 hours per day. If you have more time to devote to your courses you can work faster, but we recommend estimating at least 4 months to allow plenty of time for skill retention and milestone projects.

In the Get Hired Track, you’ll work with your career coach over the course of 12 weeks, but we often see students starting to land jobs in as little as 4-6 weeks.
