Chasing an IT Dream with Alvin Lim

Chasing an IT Dream with Alvin Lim

Alvin Lim was always intrigued by the world of IT, but getting a start in the industry didn’t come easily. “Due to indecisiveness and deterrence from my family, I ended up studying mechanical engineering in university instead,” he tells us. Despite enrolling in a data analytics programme later on, Alvin soon realised he lacked the resources to launch a career in the field.

A Step-by-Step Foray into Software Engineering with Jeremy Lim

Like many other aspiring career switchers, Jeremy Lim, a political science graduate, was hesitant about his chances of entering a new industry. As much as he enjoyed programming, he feared companies wouldn’t hire him since he lacked a degree in software engineering. Read on to find out what his journey was like!

My Rocket Academy Experience by Jerome Chua

How did I find out about Rocket Academy? Very interestingly it was through a sponsorship logo they had on Shopee Code League. Then, I remembered googling them up, and it resurfaced later down the road.

"Rocket's bootcamp was what I needed to kickstart my career as a software engineer. In addition to the technical training, what makes the course even more valuable is its focus on soft skills, such as working in teams, and presenting our work to people with varying technical backgrounds. A welcome surprise was the amount of guidance we received in our job hunts, even after graduation: weekly check-ins, feedback on resumes and portfolios, and preparing for interviews. I'm especially grateful for the mentorship and friendship of my instructors, peers and seniors, which made the journey all the more worth while. Thanks to Rocket, it was possible for me to pursue a different career, and I'm glad to have made it with the relevant skills and some new friends too."

Liz

Software Engineer

"I had always been envious of how engineers could morph an idea into a tangible product. After working through online courses independently, I quickly realized that having a structured support environment would be critical to building technical skills. Rocket was a great place to start out - providing mentorship and guidance not only throughout the bootcamp but also extending into support with the daunting job search process. Most importantly, working through a demanding learning process with peers and supportive mentors was extremely encouraging. This gave me the confidence to do a career switch into a full-fledged software engineer - a role which I've found to be challenging but massively rewarding. Thank you Rocket Academy for helping me to get here - excited to see what is to come!"

Grace

Software Engineer

"I was from Rocket's first batch of bootcampers. Having graduated from bootcamp and taking up a job as a software engineer (SWE), I have full confidence in Rocket's ability to help career switchers (like myself) make the transition. The syllabus is focused on helping bootcampers gain employment as SWEs. From the rigorous algorithms practice (a crucial part of the SWE interview process) to having a comprehensive set of portfolio projects to show employers by the time bootcamp ends. Am also super impressed by the increasing quality and complexity of the projects that bootcampers are producing, It's truly getting more impressive with each batch!"

Jeremy Lim

Software Engineer

"Like anyone else, I had initial doubts and worries about a ‘career-switch’, but I developed confidence through the bootcamp curriculum and advice from instructors with industry experience. I was able to build a strong foundation but also improve on learning new things fast - a skill that I greatly appreciate as a software engineer now. I have taken away much more than I expected from my journey with Rocket Academy - not only technical skills, but also career advice as well as meaningful connections - and will definitely recommend Rocket Academy’s bootcamp to anyone who is keen in becoming a software engineer."

Kimmi Lee

Software Engineer

"Rocket Academy gave me a supportive and vibrant community of peers, staff, alumni who are really passionate about coding and invested in our collective success. Rocket’s curriculum is not only comprehensive but taught me the important skill of how to unblock myself which is fundamental for every software engineer."

Hsiu Ping

Software Engineer

"I thoroughly enjoyed the curriculum. It was a great balance of challenge and fun, and my batch mates and I were always supported throughout the learning journey. Not only did I gain relevant technical knowledge and skills, the experience also taught me how to be independent and creative in learning and problem solving."

Ian Yip

Software Engineer

"Rocket Academy was a really challenging but extremely rewarding learning experience. We were immersed in the frontend, backend, and cloud technologies that gave us a solid foundation for dreaming and building a range of projects that I'm still proud of up till today. The student community is very diverse and hardworking. It's always interesting to see the projects they come up with. The Rocket staff are very committed to giving us good exposure to the industry through frequent talks and Q&A sessions. They are good teachers and gave much needed support in job preparation and job hunting."

Jia En

Product Engineer

"Rocket's community was one of the main reasons for me to take the leap of faith to make a career switch with them instead of other bootcamp providers. The camaraderie and energy levels of my course mates and students of the other batches really value-added to my learning and always gave me motivation to achieve more with each project, which ultimately helped me land my current job."
