Mine even lied to the state regulators, claiming 90% of my cohort was employed as software developers, when maybe half of us were.
A prior employer employed an advisor at a famous Data Science bootcamp. We wound up interviewing a ton of his students (I guess required for him being an advisor?) and most hadn't learned enough to be useful. Not even up to a BA/BS in CS/Math level. Even after the program ended, many of them will still in the job market for extended periods of time.
My current employer has someone who had a non-technical job, left for a boot camp, and came back for a more technical job. In his case it worked because he had a lot of market context.
So it's hit or miss, but not worth a guarantee.
If most people can't make it through a 4 year CS program, how can open-entry programs create better output in 3 months?
