Your First React Job Starts Here

I'm not sure if my skills are enough. What are the prerequisites?

The tech stack (React, Next.js, SCSS modules, react-query, TypeScript, Cypress, Storybook) can sound overwhelming, but you don't need to have worked with all of this before.

The tasks are designed in a way that slowly exposes you to these technologies.

That said, this is not a program for beginners. You need some experience with React.

If you’ve built a simple application on your own, you should be at a good level to take advantage of this program.

My advice would be to join, try the exercises for 7 days and if you find it too difficult, you can always claim your money back.

How does the 7-Day Money Back Guarantee work?

After you enroll in the React Job Simulator, you can have a look at the content, check out the project, and get your hands dirty on the first tasks.

If you decide for any reason that this is not for you let me know and I'll refund your money.

How does this get me closer to a job?

Once you get an interview you should have a much easier time in the technical assessment. You'll have a lot of skills that are not common for Junior developers. You can show off your experience working on an advanced React project and know more options for approaching common problems.

This will set you apart from many other entry-level candidates.

Once you land a job the journey isn't over. The challenge is to perform in a way that lets you keep the job. Many companies throw their Junior developers into the deep end. You're expected to swim on your own. Having been through this process with the React Job Simulator will make it much easier and likely that you get through this time.

What kind of material is included in the program?

During early access, you get a personal repository on GitHub, designs on Figma, and a Kanban board with the tasks. Additionally, there is some introductory material to skills like working with designs, creating pixel-perfect layouts, or writing tests with Cypress. But don't expect in-depth introductory material to all technologies used in the project. You won't get a lot of hand-holding on the job and you won't get it here. Instead expect to conduct the research yourself and get comfortable reading documentation. This is a far more valuable skill that can be used on any job. That's why the core of this course is the tasks. Most students spend at least 95% of their time actively working on the code base.

Finally, you will also get access to a private community on Discord.

How much time do I need to invest?

This highly depends on your current skill level so it's hard to give a clear answer. To finish all tasks expect at least 3-4 weeks if you work on it a couple of hours per day consistently.

Why is this a cohort-based program? And what does that mean?

Cohort simply means that a group of students starts working on the project around the same time. The program is self-paced though so you can work freely and on your own schedule. There's no deadline and no requirement to participate in the community.

This program used to be continuously available for enrollment. But from my experience, the community was much more active and helpful when students started in a group. Also the completion rates are usually higher in a group setting.

Can I use this project on my resume/portfolio?

Yes, you can certainly put this project on your resume.

Is this a one-time payment or a subscription?

You only need to pay once and get lifetime access to the program, all material, the community, and future updates. No monthly fees.

Do you offer discounts?

I offer PPP discounts if you're from a country where the US Dollar is expensive, you're unemployed or a student. Reach out to discounts@profy.dev and we'll figure it out.

My question has not been answered.

I understand, feel free to email me at johannes@profy.dev and I'll get back to you.
