Piscine: 4 weeks of immersive training
4 weeks of coding
This is not another bootcamp. The Piscine lasts four weeks, including weekends, day and sometimes, night. You’ll be coding your heart out with other candidates, all hoping to earn the same prize: to enroll as a full-time student at Hive.
No experience required
We only ask that you can use a mouse and a keyboard. Everyone, regardless of background, will get hands-on tasks from day one, face the exact same challenges at the same time, and be pushed to collaborate with each other.
It’s not a competition
Collaboration is essential to succeed in the real world and so it is in Hive. Everyone will be in the same boat and there’s no need to compete. If everyone swims, we take everyone. If no-one swims, we take no-one. Statistically, about 1/3 of swimmers succeed.
Practical info
There are 2 Piscines scheduled in 2019: July and August. Each will consist of 180 swimmers. Due to high demand, those spots need to be reserved on our applications website on a first come first served basis. If you don't get in, don't worry! Your online test score is saved for 3 years and more Piscines will be organized in the future!
