Scaler

I admit that initially I was hesitant, trusting long-distance learning to help me get to where I needed to be in order to land a job as a developer. And to top it off, they are located in India, more than 12 hours ahead of my time zone. If you are feeling... Read More this also, I totally understand, but my experience with them after I took the gamble has certainly paid off so far, and I am adamant that this will be the last bootcamp I will ever need. They gear the curriculum toward preparing you for the whiteboard interview, by starting off with the basics - data structures and algorithms. What really lured me to them, however, was their curriculum - it makes sure you have a good starting foundation with the basics, then moves on to full-stack development. They also go over system design, which is definitely part of the interview process but is not covered by the majority of U.S.-based bootcamps. You may think that them being located in India would hurt our job support since they might not understand certain aspects of the hiring process, but they make up for that by assigning you with a mentor who is U.S.-born and bred, and it helps to have that person understand where you're coming from. Their online platform is very intuitive, easy to follow, and has links to all the recorded lectures and notes. Homework load is not so bad, and if you're a full-time worker, this course is perfect since it starts at 6:30 PM local time, 3 days a week. I thought long-distance learning would be hard, but they have T.A.s who are online to answer any questions you have about the homework problems. Their response time is very quick, just as long as you keep in mind the time difference. I have learned a lot that I didn't know before from my previous courses and they do a very good job in helping you succeed. I am more than satisfied that I took this gamble and if you are someone with a C.S. background who is having a hard time landing a job, you should give this course a try because it'll more than prepare you and make you confident.

I joined scaler few months ago, they helped me to achieve my initial goal. Now i am towards to climb ladder. The guru mantra is stay focus and do one thing at a time. The curriculum is fits for all experience level doesn't matter how many year of experience... Read More you have in Software Industry.

Pros- Great improvement in my problem solving skills in less than a month. Great instructors, mentors and TA to ace in your scaler journey. The best thing is the platform to maintain your streak and the leaderboard to stay competitive. No cons from my... Read More side. Just a suggestion would be to make access the of the content available for forever and a break between the intermediate and the advanced batch since I am from intermediate batch from US.

I have been attending the classes since two months now. I really love how the class curriculum has been designed. In each class the instructor keeps us occupied by putting quiz to check if we are able to understand the topics being discussed in the session...

AMAZING CURRICULUM: Main Advantage of this course, thorough knowledge on fundamentals which starts with Data structures and Algorithms (DSA) and also a place where I started forming my basics strong. Along with this we can choose a specialization and... Read More apply them on Real-time projects. LIVE SESSIONS: -Instructions are thorough with there concepts and help us understand the concept in much easier way with relevant examples. TA and MENTOR: -If any issues TA are really helpful and are available anytime. -The assignments and Homework's are really very helpful to improve our skills. - Used to enjoy the mentor calls which made me learn lot of things from mentor interview experiences. INTERVIEW PREPARATION -Mock interviews are prepared by MAANG engineers. -These interviews help us achieve real time interviews.

I am almost 3-4th of the way through the Advanced DSA part. Overall impact of it is far above and beyond my expectations. In the hope that it helps a few folks out there, here are a few invaluable benefits I want to highlight from my experience: a) Content... Read More Quality - Everything about this course is so well refined down to the smallest details: problems, lectures, homework, contests, mentors, teaching assistants, platform and most importantly the Instructors and Mentors. Instructors and Mentors are extremely accomplished yet unbelievably altruistic and detail oriented individuals. They take great pains to simplify, structure, exemplify and drill down the approach and impart useful tips which only otherwise come from spending innumerable hours of diving deep yourself. b) Structure and Schedule - This course added much needed structure and schedule to my preparation. Demanding work and life situations still present excuses but so many guardrails of the program keep me on track. c) Observation and Approach - helped me significantly enhance my approach and observation skills while solving problems. d) Free event classes covering relevant topics - There are so many useful interesting events and classes on a weekly basis. e) Learning that goes beyond just interviews - It's a complete reboot of all aspects of my tech skills - from problem solving and design to building systems which scale and from better interviewing to taking better interviews myself. For the cons: is it is addictive and you would absolutely regret not having come across this program sooner!!!

I’m currently going through the Data Structures and Algorithms (DSA) section of the course and love it. Scaler has very knowledgeable instructors that really help you understand the most-relevant topics. Scaler also paired me with a mentor with many years... Read More of industry experience and he’s bestowed me with a lot of knowledge that will be readily applicable to both life and the next phase of my career. Scaler is a time commitment that you have to consider, but is totally worth it.

Pros: 1.Scaler has comprehensive curriculum which covers all the necessary topics which is next to impossible if we do it as an individual. 2.The instructors are the current MAANG engineers who are fantastic(I am very much impressed by my instructor Tarun... Read More Malhotra). 3.They teach the concepts from groundup and you will not forget and if we do our part of work, then there is no looking backward. 4.These are live classes and we can revise these sessions at our own speed after the class also. 5.The USP of this course is CONTENT. Content is the king and you can be rest assured on the content as this prepared by MAANG engineers. Not a random guy on YouTube. 6.My biggest problem was the overwhelming content and don't know what to follow. Scaler solved my problem with the structured curriculum.

I really like the scaler program, this will be very useful for people who are looking opportunities in product based companies, the way of teaching , teaching assistance and mentor program everything. Every class they are giving some assignment and homework... Read More problems , those are very helpful to analyze the problem solving. Joined in April, since then i learnt lot of things in problem solving , when someone gives problem for solving how to approach the problem and analyze the problem. Teaching assistance people they are helping the students if we have doubts in problem solving etc etc, and mentors helping how to prepare for interviews and how to overcome weakness. They are conducting some contest monthly , we can analyze ourselves with that where we are currently, and Master classes really helping for low level and high level design.
