Ask HN: What should I do next?

3 points by pkdpic ↗ HN
I went to a bootcamp after teaching art for 6 years. The bootcamp hired me to teach / write software a oittle sfrer graduating. Ive been there for two years. I love them but they (intentionally?) don't pay enough to stay forever. I'm bored / tired etc and thinking about quitting randomly and applying to recurse center.

Apply to the Recurse Center (or anywhere else); if you get in, quit whatever it is that you're currently doing.

What's "oittle sfrer"?

ibash
probably "little after"
ibash
Start applying to software engineering jobs!

What would you want to get out of the recurse center? It's an okay place if you want to develop your coding skills (I say okay because it all depends on who you meet and who's in your batch. If you want to get really good at database development but your batch is full of front end dev's, you might have a bad time). However they're not the best at placing people into jobs. IMO you either have to be somebody with 10+ years of experience prior to attending, or already know somebody at the company they place you at.
