About
The Recurse Center is a self-directed, community-driven educational retreat for programmers based in Brooklyn, New York City. It offers structured time away from work to focus on programming growth, with access to a physical hub, facilitators, and a supportive community. It also provides career services including job referrals and mock interviews through a network of alumni.
Problem

For
programmers looking to grow their skills or transition between jobs
How it works
