- Youth between 18-34 from and living in the MENA region and Turkey
- An intermediate level of English is required
- You'll need to be able to commit yourself 25-35 hours per week throughout the program
- We support gender equality in tech and aim for 50% women in all our bootcamps and courses.
- We prioritize unemployed/underemployed applicants.
-----------------
* No prior coding or design skills are required to start your application for our bootcamps, but you will need to pass a technical test to progress in the admissions process. We will provide sufficient self-study material for you to succeed.
** All criteria are subject to change, and additional selection criteria might apply depending on program partners.
*** In order to complete this program, you will need access to a computer and a stable internet connection.
**** Underemployment is defined as whether you are unwillingly working in low-skill and low-paying jobs or only part-time because you cannot get full-time jobs that fit your skills and experience.
What is your motivation to apply?
Your reason for applying matters to us. The digital economy is shaping the future of all of us, and we are looking for people to whom this program will make an impact and those who are motivated to make an impact themselves - on their careers, communities, country, or even the world.
Maybe you’re trying to learn coding on your own but struggle to tie it all together. Maybe you’ve studied computer science but never really learned practical coding. Or maybe you feel stuck in a job that takes you nowhere and has this sense that learning how to code might exactly be the challenge and accelerated reboot you need. Not to mention in an industry you know is shaping our world and your future. Well, this coding bootcamp is for you!
Our curriculum to include a 4-week introduction to Javascript to make sure our backend bootcamp is accessible to people without advanced knowledge of coding. It does still require a love for logic, and any coding experience would be considered an asset, but not required. So you can jump into this bootcamp without a whole lot of experience - you just need the motivation to learn.
Yes! Like every other program at Re:Coded we are kindly supported by our donors. In the application form, you will be able to see which donor is supporting your bootcamp.
Learning on your own is great, and we love it ourselves. But a bootcamp gives you something else. Instead of browsing around to learn bits and pieces whenever you can find time for it, a bootcamp gives you structure and support to take a leap forward in no time.
A Re:Coded bootcamp also gives you something else. We want to support your leadership and collaboration skills by teaching you the fundamental soft skills essential to employers when they're looking for people to join their team.
Often the community among students, support, and soft skills training are among the things our students point out as truly unique and valuable parts of our bootcamps.
First of all, you need to fit our selection criteria (see above), but apart from that, we aim for 50% women in our bootcamp to help support gender diversity in tech. While we do get quite a few applicants who graduated from computer science, engineering, and with other natural science degrees, we have had plenty of applicants who have learned coding on their own and quite a few who had such diverse backgrounds as teachers, bus drivers, etc.
We prioritize people who are un- or underemployed.
While nothing is ever guaranteed, we had a job employment rate of over 85% for our graduates depending on the program. We know that there’s more to getting hired than having a great portfolio and technical knowledge, and our curriculum includes built-in career development, so you can enter the job market confident and prepared. Not to mention that our Career Services team will support you for 6 months to help you land the job of your dreams.
Common job titles of Re:Coded web development graduates include junior backend developer, backend developer, and full-stack developer, depending on your skills. Graduates have been hired at some of the top startups and companies across the region, and you can check salaries and current job opportunities on Glassdoor.
Yes, if you complete the curriculum, participate actively in the live online classes, finish your assignment and fulfill your commitment to your classmates, you will receive a Re:Coded certificate at the end of the bootcamp.
Our live online classes are typically spread out over two nights during the week and a half day on the weekend. The exact time of the classes will be shown in the application form.
The selection process is highly competitive with hundreds of applicants for each bootcamp so it’s important you take the time to write a compelling application and explain why this is the right learning experience for you.
The application process is divided into three phases: the first phase is the application form where you get the opportunity to tell our team about yourself and explain your motivation to apply - it might take around 30-40 minutes to complete.
If you meet the requirements of the bootcamp and you’ve submitted a great application, you’ll be sent a homework challenge to complete as well as a psychometric and logic test to measure your growth mindset, critical thinking skills, and level of perseverance.
The final phase of the selection process is an interview with our admissions team to assess whether you’re the right fit for this course.
In the end, we select between 35-70 people for a bootcamp depending on country and donor.
Going through a bootcamp is a big commitment. To your classmates, your trainers, and not least yourself.
This bootcamp could be your ticket to advancing your career in the tech industry, but we won’t lie - there will be times when it’ll be tough. It’s a high-paced bootcamp experience, and you commit yourself to your classmates when collaborating on important projects.
We want to make sure we find the right candidates who are not only able and willing to go through the whole bootcamp but also to succeed when you land that dream job of yours.
Our Admissions team is always happy to answer any questions you may have! Please reach out to admissions@re-coded.com.
We’re doing our best to make your application process the best possible, but surely there is always room for approval. While we can’t do much about selection criteria and can’t make any exceptions to these, there might be something else bugging you.
