He ended up choosing Tech Elevator based on placement rate, online reviews, and location.

  Thanks. There are so many out there that I have no idea of what to recommend to friends that ask.

    I didn’t go through it myself, but for him placement rate was the #1 thing he made his decision on. TE was about 75% coding and 25% interview skills from what I was told. He liked it and was successful. It really does sound like now is a historically bad time to try breaking into coding, sadly.

      He managed to get placed tho. Now's a bad time, given the layoffs putting very senior folk on the market at competitive rates but unfortunately, I don't know of other careers paths with that same kind of opportunity that can also be done remotely. Healthcare is usually onsite. If there's something solid that's not coding that it's a good time to break into for, I'm all ears!
