Sabio - Culver City, California

S R.

They used me for my money. They said I was supposed to start August 2022 after a leave of absence due to a death. They failed me though. After coping with the loss of my friend during a leave of absence they granted me, they said I could return. This turned out to be a lie and they removed me from the program instead. Now I still owe $14,000 with no certification or anything. I have screenshots for proof and already filed my complaints through the BPPE.

I came to Sabio with no knowledge of coding and software engineering and that changed very quickly. The program is VERY intense, but it is all worth it in the end. After 17 weeks in the program I had 3 job offers ranging from $110,000 to $145,000. All of the staff care about the students and go above and beyond to make sure that you will have the skills to land that job as a Software Engineer. I would recommend nothing less than Sabio to get you on the fast track to your career in tech.

Sabio changed my life!!

I decided to quit my 11 year career to pursuit software development without having any experience in the field and the instructors are really helpful and the curriculum is perfect for all levels. the owners are really involved with the students and make sure that the provide you with the right tools to land your first tech job after graduation!

Ill skip to the part that everyone cares about: the results. I received six offers in the first month after graduating. I am currently working remote and my life is so much better. I have no degree and I was a construction worker before this with no tech experience.

Pros:
- Great hands on experience
- Mentorship program is very affective
- Working with a real startup and having real Agile experience
- Great network of alumni
- Very high post grad employment rates

Cons
- Quality of instructors vary, some are great and some are not so great and come off as burnt out or fed up
- "My way or the highway" approach

Things to note
- I really like prerecorded lectures and practice problems. If you are not good at learning like this then you should practice. I think they were very relevant to the work environment
- Keep your head down and code. Mind your business and treat this school like its your job
- This is not easy. It is extremely fast paced so you need to dedicate lots of time to this course. If you put your head down and focus on code for these 17 weeks, your life will change

Over all, Sabio worked out extremely well for me. I paid them using VA benefits to get me job ready in 17 weeks and that's what they did. Who can complain about that? I have also seen dozens of alumni get hired from the network of thousands of alumni. Definitely do your research, read all reviews and talk to the staff, but I certainly recommend this course.

I recommend Sabio to individuals who want a quality job in programming and are willing to commit the necessary 66 hours of hands-on course work each week. It is necessary to learn a new skill in four months where competing candidates will have four-year degrees or 3-5 years of industry experience. This program is NOT for the faint of heart. You get what you put into it and I put my best effort into the program.

I am a Sabio alumni that was able to secure a job within a month of graduating. I did have some prior experience with programming. I was very active in the program and took advantage of all the Sabio resources. I believe Sabio gave me the skills to obtain a quality, high paying job with full benefits in computer programming.

My favorite part of the program is the SabioNation Slack channel. During cohort it is a great way to stay connected to your peers and also have a little fun. It is even better after you graduate and have access to all the alumni and career development tools. Getting a job is hard and having the support of your peers helps that process. I was very active in these channels and my first job offer was a direct result of working with an alumnus and getting a referral.

Sabio’s production and senior instructors are very knowledgeable. They were very receptive to my questions and were always willing to commit the necessary time to help me with my coding issues. On occasion instructors would give conflicting instructions in production on the final product. Coming from the senior-level financial industry, this is par for the course. I saw it as an opportunity to learn programming conflict-resolution skills to communicate issues and solutions between instructors.

If you WANT a job and you are WILLING to put in the WORK, I would recommend meeting with the admissions team to see if Sabio is the right fit for you. If you are willing and put in the effort, Sabio wants to help you find quality employment.

Started learning here back in October, and while it's been difficult I have learned software engineering. ReactJs, C# .NET, HTML, CSS, SQL. Not only has Sabio taught me how to program in these languages, they've given me a foundation in which to build upon. If you're looking to learn programming and have been debating on attending a bootcamp, Sabio will not steer you wrong. They also have an awesome career services team that helped me tailor my resume and get me back on the market and as a career changer, that's pretty awesome.

It's no joke, you will be challenged, you will be held to a high standard, and you will have strict guidelines placed upon you, but at the end you will learn to code.

Personalized and caring, Sabio's goal is to push your limits to get you the skills AND the job. Alumni remain in the community and continue to benefit from the amazing creation that is Sabio. I was guided to help with tuition, and was incredibly supported through my journey there. You will have excellent full stack development skills when you graduate. Put in every ounce of effort you can to soak up this program's every drop.

I can't say enough about how thankful I am for Sabio, their career counselors, instructors, and the knowledge they provided in jump-starting my career in tech. I was skeptical at first, but they will put as much into your future as you do. It is hard work, but as long as you show up and give it your all, anything is possible. I have a brand new career to show for it and so do many others I know.
