Hi, Product Hunters 👋 It’s Ariel, the founder of Microverse here. Thanks, @kevin for hunting Microverse! Microverse is the first coding school in the world that’s crazy enough to not charge you anything until you’re employed—regardless of what country you’re from—and where students learn through remote pair programming. We launched Microverse over a year ago and a lot has changed since then. We added standup teams to work together on morning and evening coding challenges, Technical Support Engineers that are available full-time to answer students' questions, a mentorship program, and a dedicated Student Success team to make sure every student has the support needed to complete the program. We've also accomplished quite a bit, too. Here’s an overview: 💪🏼 Created an incredibly selective process to identify the world’s most talented individuals (current selection rate is 0.3%) 📈Enrolled full-time students in 48+ countries. 🗺️Received tens of thousands of applicants from ~200 countries* 💲Graduated students from Africa, Asia, South America, Europe, and North America whose salaries are 2x-8x what they made before. 🌍Accumulated dozens of inspiring stories ranging from students from Serbia and Kosovo who decided to put their differences aside and work full-time as coding partners to graduates saying things like “If you can get stable internet and electricity, Microverse is what you need to do.” 👩‍💻Grown our global-first, fully distributed team to people from 7+ countries. (We’re hiring! 😄) Here’s an article I wrote about our mission and where we’re headed: https://medium.com/@arielcamus/a... Some of the team will be around to answer questions you might have. Feel free to ask us anything!

@arielcamus Congrats dude! Love what y'all are doing and all that you've already accomplished!

the enrollment and acceptance test is great idea to ensure the quality of the learning, I just went through the process and got accepted, I was very exciting about what is in the road ahead.

Pros:

Innovative way of teaching, professional career services, goal alignment with student, no upfront cost

Cons:

only available in 2 time zone now(UTC-7& UTC), studying period is fixed (8 hours per day for 5~6 months)

Built to bridge the gap between talent and opportunity, also increase the productivity gotten off talents. As a student it has been exciting for me. I would recommend this to anyone looking to get a remote developers orientation and work ethic before applying for Jobs. Beginners programmers looking to bootstrap fast into the working class would benefit massively from this.

nice one!

LOVE IT!!

Great initiative, nice design on the website.

This will absolutely change the world.

Pros:

I have been following the company and I absolutely love what @microverse is creating and salute Ariel courage.

Cons:

More PR would help get the word about this awesome project out to more people who desperately need this!

These guys will change the world at some point.

Pros:

It is an amazing learning platform. I highly recommend it to anyone.

Cons:

They can improve a lot in providing more accurate and strategic materials that will outstand them.

I know this might sound like a cliche, but Microverse is really making the world a better place. Talent is everywhere we know, but Ariel Camus and his team are really making opportunities available everywhere as well. It's my third month into the program now and I feel more secure about my future than I was last year. My days at Microverse has been one of the best experiences I've had, awesome coding buddy, great standup team and wonderful students from different parts of the world.

Pros:

Pair programming, innovative way learning, very good structure and awesome model.

Cons:

Very good internet infrastructure and good power supply is required for the best experience.

exciting journey so far

Presently a student and learning sooooo much...great family spirit (1 month into program so far)

It's free to enter and very well paced, you just need to keep a time schedule to do everyday code every day at least an hour and you'll begin to be better in no time!

Pros:

The most accessible school you'll ever find with this quality level. Is heavily based on community.

No cons in my view

It's actually a great experience. Thank God for the Internet, because as long as you are willing to positively gain or impact knowledge these are both at your disposal.

It's going hard to get a chance to join here day by day. Because the filter process for selecting new people is awesome.
