Caitlyn Greffly used to travel around the country selling beer, but it got tiring. So in pursuit of a more sustainable way of living, Caitlyn started teaching herself to code. She ended up joining a bootcamp and quickly received a job offer before she even completed the program, less than 6 months later.

In this episode, Caitlyn talks about…

Applying to boot camps, and how she came back after getting rejected the first time
Her experience learning with Thinkful
Finding a job in the middle of the boot camp
The benefits of reaching out to experts for tips and shadowing opportunities
