No shit? Of course 12 week programs won't help anyone get into Google. None of them advertise that. They're all web development or app development curriculums. Google is an aspirational position that requires a brilliant graduate with some great internship experience.

They do seem to place some people with Google, but from what I've learned looking into them though, I think it has more to do with selection than training. To me, it seems like top bootcamps are 3 month long interviews that the interviewee pays for.
