Surviving a Coding Boot Camp Week 8

Week Eight: Applying What I've Learned

In week eight of my coding boot camp, things have become more challenging as we focus on applying the skills and knowledge we have gained so far. This week marks the end of module two, and I have been working on a capstone project with a group of four.

Excitement for the Next Module: CSS and HTML

I'm excited for the next module, which will cover CSS and HTML. These are areas where I already have some experience, so I'm looking forward to diving deeper and expanding my knowledge. I feel confident in my ability to grasp these concepts quickly and apply them effectively.

Ready to Start Looking for Jobs

As my boot camp journey is coming to an end, I am feeling ready to start looking for job opportunities. Living on savings and loans has been a challenge, and I am eager to secure a job that will provide financial stability. If anyone has any recommendations or leads for job opportunities, I would greatly appreciate it.

Progress on the Capstone Project

Our current capstone project has been intense and demanding. While I can't disclose all the details, I can say that it involves working with controllers, classes, interfaces, JDBC, and DAOs. It has been a great opportunity to put everything we've learned into practice and showcase our skills. Despite the difficulties, I am confident that our group will be able to complete the project before the deadline.

Continuous Learning and Adaptability

Throughout this boot camp journey, I have realized the importance of continuous learning. Technology is constantly evolving, and in order to stay relevant, I need to keep up with the latest trends and advancements. I have found that my background in front-end development has made it easier for me to pick up new skills and adapt to new technologies.

Focusing on Job Hunting

As we wrap up this module, I am eager to shift my focus more towards job hunting. While I have enjoyed the learning process and the challenges of the boot camp, my ultimate goal is to secure a job in the tech industry. I am excited about the opportunities that lie ahead and the chance to apply my newfound skills in a real-world setting.

This update marks an important milestone in my coding boot camp journey. I am grateful for the support and guidance I have received thus far, and I look forward to sharing more updates as I progress further. If you have any job opportunities or advice for job hunting in the tech industry, please feel free to reach out.
