Good program

Polina was an excellent mentor. Her marketing experience and willingness to jump in and help me craft better copy was invaluable. Watching the workshops Polina put together was insightful and thought-provoking. Seeing how another person works through marketing objectives was extra helpful. I had a great experience all around. I had 2 mentors assigned to me with different focuses. My second mentor was Eliya and she helped me keep me on track and was a massive source of encouragement. Having accurate analytics was critical during my hunt. You guys rock.

Found a job about halfway through the program. Little bit of luck, but I can't discount the interviewing structure and accountability that the program provided.

I had a great time at Pathrise. The program starts with lectures on data structures and algorithms, refreshing your preparation for the interviews. Then, weekly check-ins with mentors keep you on accountable. I loved the ability to do multiple mock-interviews with industry professionals before my interviews and prepare well.

Pathrise provides a great set of tools that are bound to catalyze your job hunt process and help you identify your weaknesses. Not only do they provide a great set of mentors, their weekly events, and an invaluable alumni network get your foot in the door. They're calibrated to onboard fellows with all ranges of experience and mentors make sure that they are personally invested in your success. The fellowship can get slightly expensive if you're already experienced and require minimal assistance but they especially helped me negotiate my offers and get me a better deal.

I was struggling with my job search after some failed interviews, and Pathrise helped me get back on track. I especially found the weekly check ins with my advisor to be great in keeping up my motivation and application volume, and I landed a great job after 2 months of being in the program. Overall I feel the price (income sharing) is fair because who knows how much longer it would have taken me if I did not join Pathrise. They had a lot of great resources with respect to passing the full spectrum of leetcode-style programming questions you might encounter. There were also opportunities to practicing your soft skills interviewing, although I think I could have used more help in that area. Generally I felt that the program was geared towards highly competitive large/top tech companies and hot startups, whereas if you are aiming for medium-small companies which rely less on leetcode-style programming questions and more on whether the interviewers like you or not, this program may not be ideal. Overall I was impressed with the quality of the program though and would highly recommend it. I would just do research to make sure it is the right fit for your job search needs.

Pathrise taught me skills which I use nearly 2 years later. I was able to learn how the interviewing experience truly was and accelerate my learning process through Pathrise. I recommend this program to all of my peers.

I was really struggling finding a position as a UX designer after completing my graduate work, but the Pathrise team really helped me understand the entire job search process and provided me with all tools necessary to land a great job. Both my career and industry mentors had a very personalized approach to helping me improve my portfolio website, interviewing techniques, and overall understanding of the hiring process. I highly recommend this program.
