Ethan: Training for a Meaningful Career Change


Ethan is a current student on a Northcoders bootcamp. We checked in with him to hear his thoughts on the course and why he’s joined it.

What were you doing before the course?

I was working as a cashier in a Petrol Station.

What made you interested in Northcoders?

I wanted to change my career to something more meaningful, something I’ve always wanted to do, which is software development.

What do you think of the course so far? 

I am really enjoying the course so far. It’s structured and lots of support is constantly available from both tutors and other students. I’ll be honest and say the pair programming side of things isn’t naturally something I gravitate towards but I’ve really enjoyed that part too especially on new topics. Figuring things out together is much better and I’ve enjoyed meeting new people.
