3. Interview with Stuart Roper, career switcher and bootcamp graduate

I sit down with Stuart to talk about the journey he took from his 15 year “temporary job” as a call centre manager to being a self taught developer and bootcamp graduate now working in a thriving UK e-commerce company as a full stack developer. We cover: Deciding to make the change. Financing the bootcamp. Transitioning from his old role’s mindset to the mind set of a developer. Standing out as a new developer. The importance of early feedback. What Stuart would have done differently. Stuart can be found on LinkedIn.
