Career Karma Projects Spotlight: June 5th

We’re back for another week of the Career Karma Projects Spotlight. This week, we’ve seen everything from a meditation app with music to an app that helps you organize your finances. 

Before we get into the rankings, we’ve got an announcement to make: Career Karma has recently partnered with Crash, a platform that helps job seekers pitch themselves to the best companies.

If you’re interested in winning a free three-month subscription to Crash, submit your project to Career Karma next week and share your project. If your project is featured in our Spotlight, we’ll give you the subscription!

This week we’re back with ten new projects submitted to Career Karma to show you how much coding bootcamp students, graduates, and newbies to code are capable of building.
