Overview

Flockjay runs a tech sales training curriculum positioned as an on-ramp to tech careers for people who lack traditional networks. It operates a bootcamp with a pay-if-you-get-placed model (zero cost if you don’t get a job; 10% of income for the first year if you do, which nets out to roughly $6–7K). A few hundred students have completed the program so far, and the company aimed to train 1,000 people in 2021. Students’ average pre-training income is $30–35K and graduates can expect $75–85K; about 80% of students find a job within six months. Roughly 40% of students don’t have four-year degrees, half identify as female or non-binary, and half identify as Black or Hispanic. The company plans to expand its offerings into a continuous-membership model and deepen alumni networks as it scales.
