Challenging But Great Learning
Challenging But Great Learning
It's been a great learning experience working for Cisco. They put us through a BootCamp during the first three months of our apprenticeship, and then we were put onto a team.
When they put us on a team, I don't think the managers on the team were aware of the apprenticeship program. They would get frustrated working with us since we didn't know many things, so we kept changing teams until they could find someone willing to mentor us.
Also, what we learned in boot camp did not align with our role on the team. My team used a different language than what I learned in boot camp, so adjusting to the team was challenging.
