Stories from Bravers.

I entered the hackathon mostly to see where I stood. Winning it was a surprise. Getting hired off the back of it was a bigger one.

Reliability work is hard to fake. You either know what happens when a system falls over or you don't. I spent a few months making sure I did.

Fei J. in

Site Reliability Engineer at Apple

Plenty of papers read, nothing to show for any of it. Building one thing end to end, properly, beat another year of theory.

Harpreet M. in

Senior Machine Learning Scientist at Coursera

Honestly the biggest thing was structure. I'd been studying in circles for a year. A weekly deadline and someone who'd notice if I missed it changed more than any curriculum.

Kira Y. in

Software Engineer at AWS

Eight months of applications, almost no callbacks. The problem wasn't my skills, it was that nothing on my resume was specific. Once that changed, the interviews started.
