Coding Bootcamp in Rio de Janeiro

This was an absolutely life-changing program. I'm an employee at Go Overseas and they decided that they wanted me to join the dev team but I had very little experience on anything dev-related. So, they decided to send me to a coding boot camp. After seeing Le Wagon, I knew that it would be the right call (the beaches may have been a selling point but the curriculum was just as impressive).

From day one, it was intense! I love being challenged and learning constantly but this was a new level of challenging. As hard as it was, the satisfaction I felt when I figured out a problem was unrivaled.

The teachers are absolutely incredible and have been chosen because they specialize in different areas. You will never feel unsupported in this program. You have the teachers, ta's, your buddy for the day, everyone else in the batch, the drivers, and program manages. They are all there to push you when you feel like you have nothing else to give (which will happen if you are anything like me).

At the end of the boot camp you will look back and feel like you have no idea how you got to this point where you are now a junior developer, and where the hell the time went; but you will be so thankful to the team that helped you get there, and you won't want to leave.
Bonus points for doing the boot camp in Rio, because you get to spend your weekends on the beach; and your days eating pacoquita (by the ton), bis, & pao de queijo. Oh, and you should live in Ipanema :)
