We launched our Dev10 pilot cohort in Minneapolis, MN on April 9, 2018.

Who is your target audience?

Dev10’s focus is to create a new pool of technologists by targeting individuals with a completed bachelor’s degree in a STEM field or a non-STEM degree with technical experience. Specifically, someone who would not have the opportunity to pursue a software developer position without additional education or training.

Do you only target recent college graduates?

While we hire about 50% recent grads, we also target individuals who have experience and are now looking to transition their career into software development.

How long does it take to complete the application process?

We have a five-step application process that you will need to complete. As a candidate, you determine how quickly you move through that process. Steps are pass/fail and you move through them as you pass.Dev10 Application ProcessWe begin with a Phone Interview, move onto an Online Aptitude Test, then schedule a Behavioral Style Interview. Step 4 is a Web Development Course and you  have two weeks to complete this portion. We will select the two weeks that make the most sense with your schedule as long as it is completed by the final step in our process which is a Group Interview. This is the only set date of our process as we give out offers at least two weeks before the cohort start date. When you start the process determines the speed at which we need to move forward.

Can I complete training online?

Historically, our training was only completed in an onsite classroom setting. However, due to COVID-19, we have transitioned to an online learning classroom with the goal of transitioning back onsite once all state and federal regulations are lifted. Our training has remained successful and continues to stay collaborative.

Can I fail out of training?

Yes, it is possible. However, we thoroughly vet your skills and potential before extending an offer which we believe supports our graduation rate. In addition, we have many ways we can support you throughout training to ensure you are staying on track.
