Thanks for your comment. To address your questions:
-no the timer does not start until you hit 'start' button!
-you are coding in your own environment an uploading a zip file once you're done
-Naturally, we have definitely a large in flow of candidates from bootcamps. We don't have any formal partnerships yet though. Would love to eventually see how we can partner with online programs as well.
- Has the timer already started or does it start once I click on the [Start] button?
- Am I coding this in some sort of in-browser environment or am I creating a repository from scratch and submitting some sort of link?
- If the answer is the second, can I just use my own boilerplate? (ex: I want to do frontend and would just use my own boilerplate of React+SASS+Flow+Redux+etc. and ESLint+Prettier+stylelint)
- Lastly, my previous question makes me sound more experienced. However, I'm in a very odd spot. CS degree but switched careers to teaching over half a decade ago. I'm trying to switch back now but have no real experience other than being self-taught. I'm basically switching careers. Have you considered partnering with the various development bootcamps to tap their talent pool? How about partnering with online programs?
I think what you're doing is great. I hope you're able to make a real change in the tech industry.
