We are looking for driven, coachable, self-motivated and kind people to join our community. Here’s our Admissions Team Top Five Tips to Get Into Rithm

For the behavioral portion, we recommend reflecting on your career, your skills, and your future goals. Write out and practice some stories that are relevant to your experience and create a narrative about where you’ve been and where you want to go. Practice your pitch (tell me about yourself) until you’re comfortable! For the technical portion, our number one suggestion is to study every day, even if it’s just for 20 minutes! We’ve also put together a list of frequently asked questions that breaks down every aspect about the interview.

Up to two times for the behavioral portion and up to three times for the technical. We encourage you to interview sooner rather than later so we can gauge where you’re at. If needed, we can give you some resources and have you re-interview in time to potentially get into your preferred cohort.

Roughly one month prior to the start date. Not only do our classes fill up, there’s approximately 60-80 hours worth of prework for you to complete before the first day of class.

We do ask that you have basic JavaScript syntax and fundamentals down, which is covered by our JavaScript Fundamentals Course). This includes different types of loops, logical conditions, and common Array/String methods such as .split, .join, .includes, .indexOf, etc.

We DO NOT expect any prior knowledge of advanced topics in JavaScript like recursion, closure or Object Oriented Programming. You should be comfortable with all the essential types within JavaScript including Objects, Arrays, Strings, Numbers, Booleans, and Null/Undefined/Falsy values as well as writing functions

We do not test web development knowledge during the interview, but the pre-work following the interview will require you to be comfortable with JavaScript in the DOM, HTML, and CSS.

We’re focused on making the interview experience incredibly personalized and engaging. We invite candidates to join a Zoom meeting which consists of a 30 minute interview with a member of our career services team followed by up to 90 minutes (45-60 minutes coding) with one of our veteran instructors to test your technical skills. The behavioral interview will be like a job interview and evaluate your communication skills, your career path and goals, and the unique value add that you bring to the table. For the technical interview, we are happy to answer any questions before we jump into solving problems. For about an hour, we go through a few coding challenges to assess your JavaScript and problem solving ability. Because we are currently fully remote, we use a combination of Zoom and codeshare.io to go through the problem solving and coding exercises.

We’re not only testing for your ability to solve problems and show us your JavaScript fundamentals, we’re checking to see how you solve problems. This includes your ability to talk through your solution and gives us a good assessment of what it will be like working with you. At the same time, we will suggest new patterns and changes to your code, which gives you the opportunity to see what it’s like learning from us.
