preHIRED Admissions Process

preHIRED maintains an especially selective admissions policy, accepting less than 5% of applicants. preHIRED seeks students with "the four As" — attitude, aptitude, ambition, and accountability.

Once students complete preHIRED's online application, advisors respond within days to offer or decline admission into the program. Accepted students must enter into an income share agreement before beginning coursework.

preHIRED Payment Options

preHIRED does not require any payment until graduates are hired. Instead, new preHIRED students must commit to paying 12.5% of their future income for 48 months in order to receive lifetime preHIRED benefits. This income share agreement is preHIRED's only payment option.

Though how much you end up paying per month will vary according to your income, monthly rates average $500. The income share agreement is considered complete when the student has made 48 monthly payments, they pay a total of $30,000 (the maximum amount), or 96 months pass (even if the student was never hired and has made no payments).

preHIRED Student Outcomes

preHIRED reports a 96% employment rate within six months of starting the program. preHIRED also reports that its graduates made average first-year earnings of $69,000. preHIRED alumni are employed at companies including Zoom, Google, and Wistia.

Prospective bootcamp students should generally be wary of student outcomes published directly by bootcamp providers without third-party auditing, as these numbers may not tell the full story — for instance, they may not reflect students who were unable to complete the program or they may include graduates who found jobs outside of their target field.

Applicants may want to ask the bootcamp directly for more details about how they collect their data and what is included in those figures.
