Let me give you a list of the top scams coding bootcamps use to steal your money
In my previous roles as lead developer at startups in NYC and SF I interviewed roughly 30-40 bootcamp graduates looking for RoR jobs. The bar for a jr. position was extremely low and still none of them were able to pass. Many knew they course material very well, but as soon as you threw any real world problem that required any deviation from their established lane they completely floundered. Eventually we just started filtering out anybody with that background.<p>Saddest thing is I keep hearing stories of people saving up huge amounts of money to go to these bootcamps with this dream that they can jump from a 30k/year retail job to a $120k/year SWE job with a 4 month bootcamp. I just do not believe it ever happens.
