GBThe best! I joined CodeBreakers in December 2019 and it was the best decision I've made. I was fortunate enough to meet incredibly smart people through the course. The Coaches are great and they went above and beyond to get me ready for the interviews. I found the CodeBreakers community a close-knit group where everyone is willing to help out each. Also, they have unparalleled career coaching and support systems. I was able to land a job in a major technology firm thanks to CodeBreakers! Definitely recommend it to anyone who is considering joining. It is well worth the time and effort.

AUDoubled my salary 💰💰 I have 8 years of software engineering experience and joined Codebreakers more than a year ago. I use to meet coaches on a weekly basis. It helped me improve algorithms and data structures which were absolutely required for clearing the Faang interviews. Coaches helped me with the mock interviews, resume preparation and job search strategy. I got a job with Bloomberg and almost doubled my salary. I would recommend Codebreakers if you are interested in securing Software Engineer roles with big brands.

GBGreat Program for Aspiring Software Engineers! I highly recommend Coachable to anyone who is looking to start their career in Software Engineering. I used Coachable when I was transitioning from a career in finance to SWE. Before Coachable, I was self-studying, taking online courses, using textbooks, and working on a couple personal projects. This all gave me a good base of knowledge, and Coachable was the right next step to prepare me for the job market. Here are the primary reasons I recommend Coachable to others in a similar situation: 1) Coachable will keep you focused. There are seemingly infinite different paths one can go down when studying and preparing for coding interviews on their own. Before starting with Coachable, I struggled with either spending too much time on a specific topic or getting distracted by doing too much at once. Coachable provides a clear schedule and curriculum that makes sure you focus on what matters, and that you don't move past a topic until you prove that you understand it. 2) There's no replacement for 1-on-1 mentorship. For me, by far the biggest benefit of using Coachable was the opportunity to talk 1-on-1 with my coach (who was a current SWE at a big tech company with 3 YOE) multiple times a week. When studying on my own, if a concept didn't immediately click for me, I found it difficult to seek out and find a different explanation online that did resonate with me. I would spend lots of time reading the same "tutorial"-level explanations, but if I had a specific technical question I needed answered to unlock my understanding, I often couldn't find it. When I started with Coachable, I noticed the pace of my *actual* learning increase exponentially. What I was missing was the instant feedback-loop from being able to discuss a concept with an experienced engineer. With that feedback, if I was not understanding something (or worse, misunderstanding something), I could immediately have that corrected by talking it through with my coach. 3) Live coding practice. In addition to reviewing the curriculum with your coach, you get the chance to have frequent live coding practice. My coaching sessions would often start with a short coding problem based on the curriculum I had recently covered. For me, it was very helpful to practice coding in front of another person, explaining my thought process as I worked through the question and the solution, and receiving feedback at the end. With sufficient practice, this can go a long way in improving your performance in actual coding interviews. 4) Career focus. Coachable understands the job market and understands what skills employers are looking for. Before Coachable, I was reacting to skills I would see listed in job postings, trying to cast to wide a net for myself (back-end + full stack). With Coachable, I was proactive about the skills I was learning and I stayed focused on preparing myself for a back-end role at a tech company, which is what I truly wanted. 5) The payment structure. Unlike a bootcamp, where you could invest thousands of dollars upfront with no assurances of it leading to employment, Coachable does it right. They get paid if you get a job. That is the right way to structure a program like this, and it helps lower the barrier to entry.

GBMy experience with CodeBreakers was… My experience with CodeBreakers was excellent. They're very structured and their resources are amazing. Coach Darek really cares about you and your future and his pep talks before interviews have you feeling like you can conquer the world. His support throughout the process was amazing. All my coaches were very understanding and helpful. They walked through the process from being a bad interviewee to a better one through the one on one classes and the mock interviews. I would 10/10 recommend.

GBCrack the Interview! Had an amazing experience. Gained perfect guidance on how to prepare for the interviews. Coaches are very knowledgeable and very supporting. Could see the change in just 1month in cracking the leet code questions. All materials are quite useful.
