Q) Is there a selection process for the bootcamp?

A) Yes. Our experienced senior developers volunteer to be trainers for this bootcamp in addition to their regular project work. This leaves us with only a limited number of people that we can work with per batch of a bootcamp. And since the seats are limited, we need a selection process to shortlist candidates.

Q) What happens after I complete the bootcamp?

A) On completion of the bootcamp, selected candidates are offered a 3-6 month paid internship with ThoughtWorks. You are also free to apply to any other tech organizations to continue your career journey.
