Hey Invaders! 👽

Ever wish you could land a software engineering role without that four-year CS degree? 🤔 Good news: At Airbnb, they believe passion and practice can trump tradition. That’s why they created the Connect Apprenticeship—perfect for folks who’ve learned to code through online courses, community college classes, or bootcamps.

Ready to dive in? Here’s the scoop:

1. No Fancy CS Degree? No Problem! 🎉
   They’re all about skills over degrees. If you didn’t take the conventional college route, you’re still welcome there! Their Connect Apprenticeship opens doors for anyone who’s excited about engineering.

2. Come As You Are 🙌
   Whether your coding journey started in a scrappy online course or a late-night bootcamp binge, we applaud that hustle. They’ll help you level up those skills in a real-world environment.

3. Work Experience ≠ Engineering Experience ⏰
   If you’ve been in the workforce for at least two years but have less than one year of professional software engineering under your belt, keep reading. Their program is designed to give you that push into tech you’ve been waiting for.

4. Turn Problems Into Code 💡
   So you can whip up a quick if statement or power through for/while loops with ease in React, Rails, or Express? Amazing. That’s the exact foundation they want you to bring to our codebase.

And guess what? Applications open this February! 🗓️
