How the 8 weeks actually break down, and who this batch is built for.
The 8 weeks, step by step
Every week, mentors join a live call to guide the batch, answer questions, and keep you on track.
Month 1
Guided projects, one stretch each
Small, mentor guided builds every week. Each one pushes one real skill further than a tutorial ever would.
Month 2
One capstone, built for real
Everything from month 1 comes together into a single project built to actually hold up under a recruiter's questions.
Live calls
4 sessions with real engineers
Study material sent beforehand, then a live session with someone from FAANG or a top startup. Not a canned webinar.
The outcome
Evidence pushed straight to Hire
Your finished capstone gets evidence graded and surfaced to real recruiters on Hire, not filed away as a certificate nobody checks.
What you actually learn
While everyone else is still finishing their fourth to do app, this is where you end up instead.
Why this, why now
The old checklist doesn't clear the bar anymore.
The plan freshers were told to follow for years was simple: learn Kotlin, build one CRUD app, clone a weather app, publish it, then apply. That got people hired for a long time. It doesn't anymore, because AI can already scaffold that CRUD app and that weather clone from a single prompt, so recruiters stopped counting them as proof of anything. The bar now is a project you can actually defend: why you made each decision, how it holds up under real use, what you'd change next. That's what the capstone here is built to produce, not a fourth clone app.
Not a copy paste roadmap either
The real goal is understanding, not cramming for an interview two days before it happens. System design already shows up in fresher interviews now, and the old roadmap never adjusted for it. This one did.
Month 1, week by week
Week 1, ground work
No project pressure yet. Read, build small, watch what's already been filtered down to the resources actually worth your time. Curated, not a raw dump of links.
The guided project template
Every mini-project runs through the same 4 steps, no matter what it ends up building.
How it can be done
The obvious route, the version a tutorial already walks you through.
What can be done
The build that actually works end to end, not just a demo of the obvious approach.
+1 required feature
The leverOne extra requirement stacked on top, not optional, that can't be solved by copying the tutorial. The piece that turns it into real proof of a skill.
Topics it teaches
Named outright, never left for you to guess.
Weekly rhythm, same both tracks

Mentor feedback lands
Every project ships to GitHub with a real deployment behind it. You leave Month 1 knowing Git for real, not just enough to survive a merge conflict.
The final major project
Your final Android project
One real, complex project, built with the same practices from above. Not a toy, a build with actual users behind it.
Free promotion inside DevsUnite
The best capstones get pushed to DevsUnite's own developer community, real users, real eyes on your work.
AI integration, built in
Not bolted on after the fact. Part of the actual build.
A real FAANG interview for top performers
The strongest capstones don't just get graded. They get shown directly to an engineer from FAANG.
This is what job ready is supposed to mean. Not the outdated roadmap most freshers are still stuck on. Real skill, for the market that actually exists right now.
Who this is for
Real proof, not another certificate
College students, self learners, or freshers wanting real Android proof, not another certificate
Built for builders, not tutorial hoarders
Self taught and stuck in tutorial hell, ready to build one thing properly
Real weekly commitment, 8 weeks
Can commit real weekly time for 8 weeks, this is not a watch when free program
Real mentor feedback, real access
Wants mentor feedback and live access to real engineers, not just more content
DevsUnite Job Ready SprintAndroid Cohort
Led by a mentor who's actuallysat in those interview rooms.
Weekly system design sessions, led by your mentor
Every week, a live session breaking down how a real product actually works at scale. Google Drive, YouTube, Instagram, the kind of systems interviewers now expect freshers to understand. Read the context before the call, walk in already up to speed, leave understanding how engineering at real scale actually happens.
4 live calls with engineers from FAANG and top startups
On top of the weekly system design sessions: 4 more live calls with engineers from FAANG and top startups. Not a lecture, what the market actually looks like right now, how tech works at scale where they work, what's changed in recruiting since the roadmap you're following was written.
AI can write the code. It can't take responsibility for it. That job is still yours, more than ever.
