- busterarm 9y agoYou're just assuming that though. You don't have producible evidence of this. It's the conclusion that you want to draw, so anything that might provide your conclusion evidence, you take as evidence. What I can tell you is that I know many, many bootcamp grads and virtually all of them got good jobs, at good companies and not always junior. I still don't take that as proof of anything and am willing to take evidence to the contrary where it exists though.
- mythrwy 9y agoSo you think it's likely the number of "will not hire fresh from bootcamps" is limited to the 5 which explicitly state? No, of course it isn't. The only question is how much larger the number is. That is not assuming but extrapolating and is how statistics works. You know some bootcamp grads that got jobs. Great. That isn't in dispute though. Perhaps some bootcamp grads getting jobs is what led to the "will not hire from bootcamp" policies. Now _that_ is an assumption. Or rather speculation.
- busterarm 9y agoAnd some companies hire bootcamp grads and only want to hire more. There's no evidence for an industry trend here, just people letting their personal biases get the better of them (all around).
