I have signed up for flockjay thanks to ProductHunt and had to wait 2 weeks before receiving something, which I can understand. But they never really contact you, or truly confirm anything. You only have a few indications about when and how it should happen.
Another bad thing that happened to me is that, after receiving an invitation, answering to their survey, waiting and waiting, I finally receive an email saying that I got kicked out of the group I was in. And two days later got an email from flockjay saying that I wasn't eligible to be part of it since they can only accept applicants that are eligible to work in the US.
I don't find it really profesionnal and fair to give hope to someone, asking a lot of things from this person and suddenly stoping everything because they can't look at my survey answers.
Pros:
Fantastic idea, wonderful way of paying for it
Cons:
Poor execution, not available for non US people

Last Night I was talking to Flockjay and I have share the positive feedback. The Product/training they offer is what an amazing oppurtunity. However, they need to expand globally which they only accept people from inside the US. There are tons of talents in the world looking for trainings and growing options like this. I would be very happy to join to %0 upfront training from outside of the US and seek job in the Tech Sales Market. :)

Shaan and team are setting out to make tech accessible in a way it's never been before, through education, without the steep upfront costs that cause traditional barriers to so many. This means people who are feeling stuck, or without hope in their careers and lives have an approachable, new option to change their future that only requires their passion and desire to learn. The concept alone deserves much praise, and the product that follows is going to do great things while making the world a better place. Bravo <3
Pros:
The first of its kind.
Cons:
Awareness and adoption!
